Hi!
If you’ve been online for any length of time, you know you can lose a lot if you aren’t careful. I’ve personally been suckered in.
One time, after having saved some of my hard earned cash over several months, I decided to make an investment. I wanted to generate some sales, and thought I had found the solution. The salespage was good, the references seemed to check out, but there were some really high pressured sales tactics. It was “Act Now, or FOREVER MISS OUT!”. The guy running the sales page said he wanted to go onto different projects, so this was a ‘one-time’ deal, limited to a certain number of people. I could feel the clock ticking. I checked out his reputation. He seemed to have a good reputation. I checked what he wrote. It seemed to make sense. He messaged me. Only a few spots left. They were going fast. I didn’t want to miss out. I did some basic number crunching, figuring worse case scenario, I’d break even. Best case scenario, I’d make a few thousand. I even talked to some family members to make sure I was making the right decision, because $1,000 was (and still is) a lot of money. I had saved it over a few months, wanting to make a business investment – reinvesting in my business. I messaged the guy asking if he’d extend the deadline. He wouldn’t. I had to make a decision.
I thought long and hard. I finished my meal. Finally, I decided I would go for it. So I paid $1,000. The promotion would run at a specific time. You know how much money I made from my $1,000 investment?
“It sucks, that you didn’t get any sales. But, what really where you expecting?”
I WASN’T THE ONLY ONE
- E-Bay Bait & Switch – People were being duped out of thousands of dollars with fake products.
- Fake Job Postings – People looking for jobs, were instead being swindled out of their hard earned money, and would never get a job from their job application
- Scams to get free products – A technique a small, but growing number of individuals were using to get someone’s product for free. No credit card required.
- Fake Websites – Fake websites designed to use social engineering techniques. One particular type of website had bilked people out of millions of dollars
- Fake Testimonials and Earnings – Surprisingly, it was easier than I thought to get both of these items to convince people to part with their hard earned cash
- Online Dating Scams – You’d never get a girl from this, but the “girl” would get you to use your credit card
- Big players stealing affiliate commissions – With this technique, some big players could easily steal other affiliate commissions. They just had to know what product was hot on the market, then could take 2 minutes to get someone else’s commissions.
- PPC Click Fraud – If you pay for any kind of advertising, then you could be losing big. It’s advanced far beyond the point whereby a competitor simply clicks on your ads to try and drive up your costs… Nowadays, there is sophisticated software which can totally tank your campaign. And the worse thing is, you wouldn’t even know it.
- Website Backdoors – Some individuals had been duped, and were granting hackers 100% access to their website without even knowing it!
- And the list went on and on and on…
So I started keeping track of these scams. If I read something, I’d put it away in a file. Until I had enough items to put together this report to help educate others like you. Hardworking individuals that just want to make a bit of extra cash online without being sideswiped by a scammer.
You could lose thousands of dollars if you don’t, and could potentially save thousands if you do.
I’ve put together this report in an easy to read format, so you can easily educate yourself on some of the top online scams nowadays. The things I discuss here could potentially save you thousands of dollars in mistakes from scams you wouldn’t recognize otherwise.
Cheers,
John
