No job delivered, joined as a freelancer no payment delivered. Femi Palmer or whatever his name is, is nothing but a scammer who have promoted by speaking good English and have good sales tactics. Just a scammer looking for easy fix and money. Don't fall for it guys.

Beware: Augment Jobs Exploits Freelancers and Goes Radio Silent After Delivering Work
I joined Augment Jobs as a professional resume writer, expecting a legitimate contract opportunity. Instead, I was met with deliberate exploitation. I completed several resumes for their clients—a lot of which remain completely unpaid. After delivering every assignment on time and maintaining consistent quality, I was met with silence.
No response. No payment. No professional courtesy.
Despite multiple follow-ups, Augment Jobs went completely unresponsive, mirroring what others here have reported. It’s now clear that this company, marketed as a "Career development platform," is part of a larger fraudulent operation—linked to Mobius Ventures, Parabolic Careers, Iron Key Capital, and allegedly run by Femi Palmer, who has been named repeatedly in reports of unpaid work, fake services, and deceptive hiring practices.
I joined in good faith. I delivered real work. I was deceived.
Their pattern is clear:
- Offer freelance roles.
- Assign bulk work.
- Disappear without paying.
- Leave the freelancers chasing answers.
This isn’t just a one-off mishap—it’s a deliberate strategy to exploit talent while hiding behind smoke and mirrors. If you're a freelancer, client, or even job seeker: avoid Augment Jobs, Parabolic Careers, Mobius Ventures, Mobius Studios, and Iron Key Capital at all costs. Protect your time, effort, and reputation.

Augment Jobs (Formerly Parabolic Careers) Is a Coordinated Scam — Avoid at All Costs
If you’re considering paying for Augment Jobs, Mobius Ventures, Mobius Studios, or Iron Key Capital, let this be your wake-up call: this is a scam run by a professional con artist, Femi Palmer. What you’re dealing with isn’t a bad service — it’s a fully operational fraud ring disguised as a career consultancy.
I was a paying client. I saw it from the inside. And it’s worse than you think.
A Web of Lies, Promises, and Manipulation
Femi Palmer markets Augment Jobs as a cutting-edge career service that helps people break into investment banking, consulting, and tech. He promises:
* “AI-powered” job application systems
* Personalized resume and cover letter writing
* Executive Coaching
* Headhunter connections
* Access to elite job markets
None of it is accurate.
After paying for the complete package, I received a resume with typos, clearly created by ChatGPT or some AI tool with no oversight. The supposed “automated” job application platform is just one person manually applying to a handful of jobs each day—maybe five, max. There are no metrics, no customization, and no follow-up. It’s amateur hour disguised as a premium service.
Slack Channel of Desperation
Inside the Slack channel, what’s going on becomes painfully clear. You’ll find hundreds of people, many of whom spent thousands, now stuck in limbo — asking questions that never get answered, begging for help, trying to make sense of the silence. It’s a graveyard of broken promises and false hope.
The “Job Offer” That Reveals the Truth
After expressing my concerns, I was offered a “job” at Mobius Ventures. I thought I was being recruited into a VC or finance firm. In reality, it was a commission-only sales position, pushing the same broken Augment Jobs services I had just paid for — essentially turning victims into recruiters for the scam. It was a pyramid model disguised as a career opportunity.
I confronted them once I realized what I was being asked to do. That’s when they ghosted me and removed me from all platforms. There was no explanation, no accountability, just gone.
A Pattern of Rebranding to Escape Bad Reviews
This isn’t a one-off. This is a deliberate, recurring scam. Femi Palmer uses a simple playbook:
1. Launch a fake company.
2. Sell career dreams.
3. Collect thousands from hopeful clients.
4. Deliver next to nothing.
5. Let bad reviews pile up.
6. Change the name and start over.
It’s already happened multiple times:
* Parabolic Careers became Augment Jobs.
* Mobius Ventures rebranded to Mobius Studios.
* Iron Key Capital is another fake shell funded by Femi’s family, who appear to be in on the scheme.
Each company has the same con in new packaging — always tied to the same core scammer: Femi Palmer.
Fake 5-Star Reviews on Trustpilot
You will see a handful of glowing 5-star reviews. Don’t be fooled. Those are fake. They follow a formula: vague praise, no details, and suspicious timing. It is likely posted by fake accounts or interns pressured into boosting the company’s image. They are designed to bury the negative reviews that reveal the truth.
If the service were legitimate, there wouldn’t be dozens of scathing reviews hidden beneath a wall of fluff from names you’ve never heard of.
They Exploit Freelancers Too
Femi’s scam isn’t limited to clients — he also exploits freelancers. He hires writers, VAs, and consultants from Upwork or similar platforms, assigns them vast volumes of work, and then ghosts them without paying a cent. In some cases, he even leaves negative feedback despite them delivering quality results. This is a pattern. It’s predatory.
Internally, he also promises new hires “equity” or future pay, only to string them along and dump them once they ask to be compensated. I watched it happen over and over.
Final Thoughts: Femi Palmer Should Be in Prison
This isn’t just unethical—it’s criminal. Femi Palmer is not a coach, consultant, or founder. He is a full-time scammer who monetizes broken dreams. He uses deceptive branding, fake social proof, unpaid labor, and psychological manipulation to build trust just long enough to take your money and vanish.
I hope someone files a lawsuit, takes him to court, and ends this operation. He belongs in prison, not profiting from desperate job seekers trying to build a future.
Avoid Augment Jobs. Avoid Parabolic Careers. Avoid Mobius Ventures. Avoid Mobius Studios. Avoid Iron Key Capital. They are all part of the same fraudulent operation.
You’ve been warned.

I myself interned at Augment jobs for 3 months and at the end of the internship they said we'll help you find jobs and it'll be no cost for me for their service and they just disappeared and didn't even off board me. They are totally fraud.

Terrible client support
Terrible client support. took 2 weeks to be onboarded and then takes multiple days to hear back from anyone if you need help or clarification on anything. Their platform just scrapes 3 job boards (jooble, linkedin and monster) if you set alerts yourself you do it for free instead of $6K. Platform is also super clunky and not intuitive. Then when I went to cancel it took 10 days for anyone to respond. There is NO CANCEL FEATURE ON THE WEBSITE for you to do on your own. Do Not Buy This Service.

SCAM: Data Scrapping
SCAM: Data Scrapping
Extremely sketchy - they post 1000s of posting on LinkedIn and use logos of companies they are not affiliated or partnered with. Do not share your resume or information with them.
Response from Augment JobsOct 27, 2024
Hi Adam,
We do have a team of engineers that datascrape on behalf of our community to populate the most relevant roles in finance, consulting, and technology into 1 job board. We scrape from not only common job boards but exclusive job boards at VCs and PE funds to give our community the most up to date opportunities that are hiring. Our exclusive job board updates with thousands of new opportunities every day and we give access to this for free.
All roles we post are anonymized job postings found directly on our exclusive job board. If you are interested in role, I encourage you to meet our team if you have questions or could use support on your job search.
Can you please go into detail about logos of companies we are not affiliated with? Our founders are from McKinsey, Bain, Yale, Penn, and Uchicago Booth. We also disclose all of our mentors on the free trial as well.
For context we have over 10K users, but only 300 are on our super premium services. We take allegations like this seriously, and we want to ensure correct information is being presented. Was there any interaction from our team that triggered this posting?

Very poor service from slow to respond
Very poor service from slow to respond, technical difficulties, not transparent about fees, terms and conditions. CEO doesn't even know what is posted on their website for their terms of service. Service is misrepresented, it is essentially a data scraping service that aggregates job postings into one place. They are an additional middleman. No urgency or care for their clients, once you pay them they check off your box. They advertise 100% refundable on fees if service does not meet expectation, but do not practice this.

Dear John,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are committed to transparency and client satisfaction, and we regret that your experience did not reflect these values.
We would like to clarify that we never advertised or offered a 100% refund policy on our services. It appears there was a misunderstanding, likely stemming from communications with a former sales agent who is no longer with us. Please note that your contract was cancelled and no further billing occurred. Additionally, we have since discontinued the use of external sales agencies to ensure clearer communication and accountability.
We hope that despite your experience, you have found success in your job search. Should you have any further concerns or need additional clarification, please feel free to reach out to us directly at [email protected].
