    I've seen this web page around a lot, or at least sites similar to it.

    It's just an affiliates site, so what you should be asking about is - Online Income Generator

    It looks like an MLM program to me. Whether you consider those scammy or not though, that's up to you.

      Scam

      Some ways to spot

      - Every link points to Academy
      - Comments section is closed - and all the comments are postitive?
      - The navigation bars, sign in/sign up buttons, share buttons, related article links are not links, they are pictures and link to the above URL.
      - The comments section only has times, not dates, so you cannot tell when this was posted or if it works in 2010.
      - Most images link to the above URL.
      - The address www.7-newsdaily.com/ redirects to that article

      and the best sign its scamming you

        It's a fake news site which doesn't necessarily mean that the program they're pushing is a scam. However, I'd be doubtful of any program that had to be promoted in such a deceptive manner.

    Plus it wants to give you the "Please reconsider" popup. Not only do I NOT want to reconsider, I DON'T want to ever come back.
