Edit: I was wrong. The testimonials are real. Only the first picture is a stock photo.

I just quickly checked out Mentr, the company listed on your profile.

The very first picture is obviously a stock photo[1], which I confirmed with a Google search.

Lying to customers and misrepresenting prior success might be a common tactic in Silicon Valley, but it also shows a lack of integrity (and lack of users) that would worry me as an investor.

If you can't find 5-10 real people to use your service and talk about it, you should move to the next idea.
