What is FBA Winners Course?
FBA Winners Course is an online FBA course that promises to teach you everything you need to know about selling on Amazon with the FBA program and even promises to make you a winner at that.
This training program cost $1,997 and is valued at “$8,400” (They all say this) and it gives you access to the training material for all your life.
After researching further and investigating FBA Winners, I’d thought I write this review out for you to judge for yourself if this is the right programme for you. (Spoiler alert: There are better courses out there.)
This training program has been created by Tamara Tee, who also offers similar free training though her YouTube channel and Facebook page. That’s probably where you have seen her or first come across Tamara Tee.
Here in this FBA Winners Course review, we try to see if her promises is worth the hype or is this a just a Tamara Tee scam? Let’s dive in now!
Who Is Tamera Tee?
Tamera Tee left her corporate jobs in June 2018 and started ecommerce shortly after. After selling for a few years, she had found some level of success with Amazon FBA and she now teaches what she learnt in FBA Winners.
Before creating FBA Winners, she taught all that she knew on YouTube and she have lots of free content for you to learn. When she found that people are willing to pay for coaching, she decided that a Amazon FBA course would benefit people.
And since then, she have sold over $2,000,000 worth in online courses. (We’ll get to why that is actually terrible for the students)
Her own Amazon product sales have exceeded $4,000,000 thus far with multiple products which I have observed to be low valued items (Items that sells for less than $30.) (And we’ll also get to why that is a recipe for disaster for new sellers)
Negative product list
Tamara Tee Course Review finds the product checklist that you should not attempt to sell can be quite useful for 2019. Except, for today, that kind of product checklist does not work because of how fluid and how many times the playing field changes.
With enrollment, you get a checklist of products from which you should stay away.
These are the products that move very slowly in the market by associating yourself with these products even if you will be channeling your energy in a wrong direction.
However, what slow moving product that was discovered in 2019 may not be true for today. A good redeeming quality will be that she also teaches you to conduct proper product research.
FBA Winners Course elaborates product research method in a step-by-step manner so that you are able to choose only fast-moving and profitable products.
1 on 1 Coaching
FBA Winners Course review has found that a one on one coaching session held on a dedicated Facebook group for all those who have enrolled in the course.
It’s a 1 on 1 real-time coaching stream delivered to FBA Winners students through a Facebook group that’s kept secret.
Here, you can ask questions and talk about your individual experience. It can be about your business or the FBA Winners course.
There are experienced and full-time sellers in the group who help you with all your doubts and queries. You should not miss this 1 on 1 coaching streaming.
As most of us are today connected are logged on to our Facebook pages, it’s never difficult to attend this coaching. However, getting a schedule from her is more than difficult. You can image how 2,000+ students all waiting that slot, so you got to fight for your slot on a first come first served basis. Not that great if you ask me…
Training Methodology
The course comes in a self-study format with more than 10 hours of coaching. Our Tamara Tee Course review has found that most students complete the program in a minimum of two weeks for 1 hour of study per day.
You should refer back to the course material whenever you have faced any difficulty at any stage of your Amazon journey.
The FBA Winners course is updated every month so that you have up-to-date information about any change in the Amazon FBA system and you are able to formulate the best strategy for your Amazon business.
FBA Winners says initially you don’t need to hire a legal or accountancy consultant to run your business. These would be required when your income grows into five figures on a monthly basis.
For now, you should focus on earning your first dollar through Amazon FBA and try to increase it to a few thousands per month on a consistent basis.
FBA Winners Course claims that it offers an in-depth training in everything that you need to know for a successful FBA business.
However, if you feel the need for a separate class where your doubts about any particular portion of the training should be cleared, you can book a 1 on 1 coaching an FBA Winners Course executive with additional add-on payment per coaching session.
Affordability & Provision for Staggered Payment
This course cost US$1,997 in total which can be paid in 4 parts of US$599 each if you would like an installment plan. (I have even heard that she recently increased the price to US$5,000 for some students who can afford it depending on the 1 to 1 interview… Something shady is going on there.)
If you can’t afford to buy the training program in one go, you can stagger the payments in two months.
FBA Winners course promises to make you an expert in Amazon FBA business. Once you learn and understand how you can make money through FBA business, you will keep reaping the benefits throughout your life. Nobody can take your knowledge from you.
Pros
- With this course, you will be able to do business even if you have no prior experience in online selling
- You can learn from this course and start making money through your Amazon FBA business from anywhere in the world
- You don’t require huge sums of money to invest
- Offers Product Verification checklist valued at $5999 that tells you what products would not sell faster and profitably.
- Weekly Q&A with Tamara Tee
Cons
- FBA winners have been sold more than 2,000 times! (Remember the $2,000,000 which granted her the 2 Comma Club Award?) That means there are more than 2,000 FBA newbie sellers all using the same method she teaches!
- Tamera targets low value products where the competition is the stiffest! This is no secret because that’s how she promote her course. She targets and teaches her students to choose items that sells for $30 or less, those that are within standard size products. This is a huge recipe for disaster especially when PPC cost is predicted to raise.
- High number of frustration among students. This is not surprising given that those students sells and compete in the same product bracket. The risk of failure is just significantly higher where margins become razor thin with low value products!

Latest Information, Strategies for your Business
Tamara Tee Course Review suggests that the course material offers up-to-date information necessary for running the FBA business. It incorporates any new changes by Amazon in its FBA business policy.
Is Tamara Tee Scam?
FBA Winners Course prepared by Tamara Tee is an exhaustive video and online training program that promises to make you an expert in FBA marketing with your own products.
There are numerous testimonials from happy and satisfied students who have since set up successful Amazon businesses on their own. However. the frustrations and complaints from the majority are quite obscured. Students who did not get any success on Amazon usually are taught to blame themselves because they did not put in enough effort in this, when in reality, the materials taught could be better in steering the students in the right direction for greater chance of success.
Considering all the aspects of the training, we can say that Tamara Tee’s FBA marketing training program is no scam, but proceed at your own risk. I would not personally go for this course though especially when there are better ones out there. I’d rather put $2,000 in something that gives me the biggest bang for my buck.
Final Thoughts
In our review we considered various aspects of the FBA Winners training program, and we found it not worth recommending. You can go for it and set up a successful and profitable Amazon business, no doubt, but the chances of that happening is slim. This is a course made for the masses (2000+ students and counting) that have made Tamera a lot of money from courses alone.
If you ask me if this is the best course out there? I wouldn’t 100% say so…
You can easily get the equivalent amount of content and guidance with another FBA course that we have purchased and tested for! It is for sure better it comes with a team of coaches who actively guide you through in a more curated steps. It is more focused on the individual and helps to create a better environment for success.
What are these other courses that are just as good, or even better, then Tamera Tee, and how much do they cost?
Plenty of resources out there that are good and are free to get a good feel of selling on Amazon via Private labelling. For starters, I’d recommend Project X by Helium10 on YouTube. Their case study should give you a good representation if this model is right for you.
Once you believe this is the right business model for you, perhaps feel free to schedule a call with me to see if this is something we can work together with. https://spriceworld.com/book-a-strategy-call/

Your recommendation is on ball. I dodged the bullet after reading your review and I tend to agree on the cookie-cutter method that Tamera sells you on.
I am a huge proponent of self-improvement and don’t mind paying for it, but not at the expense of being lied to by “gurus”. Kevin David being another one of these “gurus” that’s more interested to sell their course then actually helping their students.
I went on to get Just One Dime’s and can say that its a world of difference in the whole learning environment.
This course is a total scam do not pay for this. This lady is a totally awful money hungry evil person who only cares about herself. I would not recommend unless you want to throw money away for trash basically.
Why do you say so? Please share a little more about your experience.
Why would you say this? What exactly was your experience?
After talking to one of representatives of Tamara team trying to sell the course for 5k usd, being pressured by him, and often even impolite, I don’t want to work with these people. There is a lot of disrespect and rudeness right from the start.
Thank you for sharing your initial experience.
I feel the same. Got on the phone with a sleaze bag sales closer that pitched me a series of half truths. I have experience on Amazon and 100% knew they were pushing in a direction that simply will not work in 2022. I asked a bunch of questions about freight etc as I had doubts about the viability of the model given 10x shipping prices. I also asked about amazon imposed inventory limits…i got follow up basically calling me stupid for not dishing out $6k
Hi Mandy, would you mind sharing your experience?
I would NOT recommend Tamara. I also got sold on her course. Took the modules and even paid for a coaching call to verify my product. All seemed well…. Anyway I ended up loosing a ton of money and had to liquidate my product. She always says how you can break even and get back the money you’ve invested initially, DO NOT BELIEVE THAT. You can learn most of the info from her YT videos for free with pretty much 95% the same info… Also hate how flashy she is with her luxury, for all we know she could be making al that money from purely selling her course, it’s about $2800 CAD from over 1,200 members in the group and that’s over 3 million dollars a year she makes just from self the course
Thank you for your feedback. I am sorry to hear that you have to liquidate your product. With proper guidance and mentorship, this should not have happened, especially when you had to shell out $2800 CAD for her course and mentorship.
I am certain that she makes more money from selling her courses and mentorship than actually selling products on FBA herself.
I signed up for the 1 on 1 coaching. I had no idea it would be a pressured sales call. Tamara’s salesman mentioned similar courses could be $??,????. usd, and tried to pressure me into $5,000. usd for the course by claiming it’s a deal. He was rude and complained a lot about his life. He used the pressure tactic by saying, “the fact that you’re not signing up is why your life is like this… it’s why you’re not a winner”. I ended up saying no thank you. Maybe Tamara’s team could just be upfront about the course price on their site and list the prices. I value good training and pay for training. I had no idea it would be a pressured sales call. This should have been done more honestly. It wasn’t necessary to be rude.
The same thing happened to me. It was sold for USD 5,000 but if I opt for installment it will be USD 6,800. If they are marketing that some students are drop-outs and some are working a normal 9-5 job, did they expect that these people have 5K just lying around? It is kind of ridiculous!
Same! I keep seeing online from other course reviews that the course costs $1997 USD, but why did the salesman tell me it’s $5000 USD if I pay in full or $6800 USD if I do 3 monthly installments. I’m losing more money before even starting my own FBA business… I feel scammed. It did seem like something I was interested in, but it’s definitely not worth $6800 especially knowing if other people probably paid a lower price for it.
I got pitched by Chris the sales guy and he was definitely rude and not someone I would want to work with or shell out $5,000 USD to. He was really bad at his presentation and was sheepish when pitching the $5K. He kept talking and talking and was boring me to death to the point where he was ruining Tamara’s brand that she built on YouTube by being rude, talking like he’s got an ego, making passive aggressive rude comments and just acting like a greasy used car salesman. Listening to him made me lose trust in Tamara and her perceived level of attention and coaching that are promised.
I just dodged a bullet. This is why I wound stop reading reviews before paying for something. Thank you for this Information!!! Can you please share other resource to use? I just got approved to start selling on Amazon. Thank you for this!!

Has anyone tried to bring this to mass media? How she is ripping off people? Her refund policy is blatantly disgusting and yes, it’s my fault for not reading it before I sent her my money. I signed up and changed my mind less than 48 hrs later. I actually didn’t even open the course at all before I requested a refund! And they’re basically saying “too bad, we don’t give refunds.” I wasn’t even given an invoice for the payment that I made!! I just want to cry at this point. I really think she should be exposed by how she is running her company with zero compassion for those that simply had a change of heart. I could understand if I took 4 weeks to request a refund, but it was 2 days! Anyone want to come together and battle this? I am more sad than mad because that money was not easy for me to make. She takes advantage of vulnerable people who are only wanting a better future and she deserves to be shaken up. She says in her videos that she grew up poor, but I highly doubt that seeing that she’s so quick to grab and run off with people’s hard earned money. Even Gucci takes better care of their consumers with their return policy!! You can purchase a bag from them and if you change your mind a few days later, they will happily take it back! But not this conceited fake. Ugh!
Sorry to hear about this… best to do your research before purchasing anything. A quick search would have brought this article up that would give you better light from other users.
I have the same misfortune too. Bought two days ago, paid $2500 and still have to pay $2500 next month. I have asked for a refund of the $2500 but they refuse. I thought the 1-1 coaching was included.
“The Strategy Session” is just to charge people.
They have no compassion and say they are not asking me for the remain $2500.
Contact the bank and request for the refund!!
I found out tamara tee has copied her course from another scammer named tim from private label master. [Redacted] Tamara also uses the course money to flex to others because without it no one would sign up.
After paying her $5000 of my money and finding out that her course is the same as what you can find for free on youtube i decided to ask for my money back (literally within 24 hours of signing up). They refused. I called visa and got my money back.
I also connected with few others in the group who were disappointed and apparently she is no longer an active seller on amazon and uses someone elses account to show sales.
Becareful and do your due diligence
Lost $18,000 after paying tamara $5000 and losing thousands on the two products. As others mentioned she does not mentor or coach you in anyway. Once they have your money you will never get it back unless you call your credit card company and dispute it as a scam.
My wife hates me because of falling into this trap
I heard of Tamara Tee FBA winners course and the person on the phone told me it would be 3 payments of $800 each (while they promote the course as $1997). After the first payment I told them I no longer wanted in and that the videos in first module were similar to her YouTube channel with no added bonus.
They refused and I had no choice but to call visa and dispute the course as being scam and got my money back. Stay far away
Ended up losing $18,000 using tamara tee’s program. This is an over priced course with outdated information and no help from fba winners (tamara). Amazon is not easy and will require a lot of time/effort to get going, if you’re thinking of starting this business make sure you buy a less expensive course on udemy for $20-30 and join facebook groups for free and be willing to put in a lot of time to get the business up and going.
Just got off the phone with the “1 on 1 Free Training Session/Strategy call”, and went straight to googling for reviews. Came across this site, and I am quite shock on how many people have experienced the ‘rude salesman’. At the end of the call, he wanted a YES or NO answer, and asked me to let him know within the next 3 hours. He said ‘we are only after action takers’, and I can feel his whole tonality changes after I said I will think about it. I am only a Uni student, where does he think I have 5K usd (AUD7k) just lying around? He sounded so rude and aggressive, which makes me no longer interested. He claims they have 90% success rate, and I m unsure how accurate that it…. Because of him, he made Tamara’s reputation worse.
I just finished my strategy session with a very rude salesman. I asked for 2-3 resources of recent success students but he refused and basically told me off. Thank goodness for this site and reviews saved me 5k.
I was offered a 4 monthly installment of $1250, and told them id need about 48 hours to decide. Was able to connect with a few people in her facebook group and it seems there is no mentorship from her side and the last time the course was updated was January of 2021.
the sales person reached out a few times but i told him i wasn’t interested
Steve here, and I had a call with Tamara’s sales assistant last night. Ended up pitching me a $1997 course which came with the Facebook community and videos, asked if there was any personal one on one involved to avoid mistakes with Tamara to which he declined.
Said i’ll think about it then did a search and came upon this site.
thank you everyone for the feedback on the course
Thank you for all the reviews, it saves me my 2k or more, reviews really helps before jumping of something and social media of course amazing.
