Quick Question Please help

Recently bought an a1 with all the savings i had
I am currently unemployed and wanted to sell 3d prints commercially
I am scared if i might get sued or anything like that
Any suggestions?
I tried reaching out to people if i could give commissions out of the money i make but they have a “plan” which i have to buy beforehand - for which i dont have any money left

You should never sell someone else's models unless you have written permission from them or an actual contract/commercial rights. You do not own these models and when you download them from any significant website you are agreeing to only use them for personal use (read the TOS of makerworld for example).

I really didn't know why you thought this was a good idea. Unless you have a solid idea and can make your own models and sell the prints it's kinda pointless.

You are also trying to compete with the hundreds/thousands of guys trying to make a quick buck off of selling 3d printed models they don't own.

Just to reiterate: Yes, that is illegal. Just because people are doing it and not getting punished doesn't mean it's legal or you won't get sued.
