Interesting read Chuck. Some of the defendants in there look pretty familiar to me from browsing around on some CPA networks. You definitely want to research what you promote and look at how you promote things

Thanks Chuck, I am looking into building a blog and also setting up lens on squidoo for the purpose of making a commission by affliate marketing with compaines like Amazon. I am just in the research phase, but I would greatly appreciate your input. Jon |

It's not only the finance/job/economy niches that scamsters pounce upon, it's also (get this) the teeth-whitening scams too (sells for only $1.99 but then charges you monthly more than $50 or so).

The scary part seems that who ever the scammer is - they know that a small percentage, even if its 0.01%. Will continue their spamming, hacking, spoofing, phishing, etc. to get that small results which ends up being soooo much. It's sad how my folks lose their whole life savings buying into one of these scams, I'm kinda surprise the gov hasn't done PSA videos about the top scams. Thanks for the link to this info. |
