I oh so nearly got sucked in..... scam or no scam????
Well the other day I got a phone call from a very wierd looking number, I missed it so rang back.... 1st mistake..lol
When I heard a strong American accent I nearly died, I told them I dont know where I 'm ringing but its obviously an expensive call so if they wanted to speak to me to go ahead and ring me back....
Money is tighter than ever, so why would I want to waste it on ringing a stranger, who probably wanted to sell me the most expensive pile of nothing... ( who in the end I found our was a man pretending to be american, ringing from PAKISTAN!)
Alarm bells were ringing in my head but I thought, if theres a chance of making money, what if I threw that chance away, I knew that there are clever ways to make money... well there must be as theres new millionaires everyday....
So they rang me back with a very strong American accent, the lady told me she worked for fortune 500referals.... I bit my tongue and listened... she asked me how much money per month, extra I would like to make, so I thought and decided that £1000 would be a really usefull figure.... so would a nice thin figure like a size 12, but I knew that would be imposible...lol... if they had said something like that .. now, I would have put the phone down as thats, down right impossible, but they pulled the right strings.... MONEY..
MONEY TALKS!!!
And boy could they talk... well she said a load of stuff but managed to say nothing,
I was none the wiser as to what they were selling, she asked me about running an internet business, and making a fortune at home doing nothing.... tempting.. but possible???? Surey not....
So I sort of managed to work out that they were selling the idea of you being paid when people clicked on adverts that are attached to your site that they build for you after you pay them 100's of dollars.. to be taught how to run this sight, that they, build for you, and then, at the end of it they, pay you... ALL the money back that they took off you.... mmm perfect????
well maybe they should have offered to pay the lost interest too..
While they were making these amaizing promisses... at this point I was about to say no way, but she asked me if I would listen to some words from the big boss of the company... mmm ok... so whilst I listened to the recording with pretty music etc.... I looked on the net about there company, nothing bad came up,
~I~ couldnt find anything, they said they were linked to the big 3....
Google, Ebay and Amazon,
and that you cant fail as people would be directed some how, to click on these ads and then when they rang up there company ,if they, too got conned to pay up the money, then you would get up to I think it was $400
......I THOUGHT SOUNDS LIKE A PYRAMID selling thingy .....I'm sure there illegal... but as he went on... and on.... and on....It started to sound plausable, I put him on speaker phone for Joe to hear there message he also started to prick his ears up thinking money....
So then I was handed to this other Guy who started asking me to write down figures, then started ordering me to right down other stuff, and look up this site and look up that, at one point he told me to look up ....
mypersonalcashcow.com
&
mysuperaffiliatesite.com (amazon made easy) came up with that one...
the firstis stream lined ebay ad.. there were people adverts for stuff they were selling on ebay..., HE TOLD ME that these people were in there scheme and made money because of it, so me being devious, clicked on an advert which then directed me to a doll for sale, in America by a normal ebay customer... so I mailed this guy, I told him about this companies claims.... I told him they said he was making money through there programme etc etc... and pressed send...
Mean while this sales man banter was begining to make sense I could see there might be a way of making these huge amounts of money....
THEN HE MADE A CRITICAL ERROR!!!!!
He told me... if I paid this huge amount of money today at the end of this phone call... by giving him my credit card details..... he would take so many hundreds of dollars off the cost, but only today, If I chose to think about it and research it and ring him back... then I would loose this one time chance to save .... right surley its a scam!!!
But I still felt uncomfortable doubting .... hed bee very clever and built up a friendship , a relationship, I didnt want to say no to him...
What if I was throwing away this chance to make money???
Dare I loose this opportunity???
Uncomfortably and also nervously I said that I would be interested, BUT, in one months time, after I had come back from my fictitious business trip.... He tried again and I repeated that I was about to leave the country for a month, and that I would speak to him then...... little did he know that in one month I will have finished with my present phone contract.. he wouldnt be able to get to me... I could choose to call him if I wanted from my with held number.....
So after I managed to get rid of him......
I started to think, I thought maybe I was wrong, maybe I was going to make terrible mistake and loose out on this chance of a life time, oh yes there were only limited opportunitys only 3 in my area and those were disapearing to others every minuite I wasted..... thinking....
So I thought again and cooly looked on my laptop at the links he'd given me I looked hard and read the fortune500referrals contract..... pages and pages of it .. loads of small print.... now that was eye opening, def not good... then looked them up on a scam reporting website... wow.. what a shock there they were with story after story from conned people desperate to make money, all the storys were the same, I'm not saying these storys were totally true surely people may add bits etc and they are there thoughts but, people were talking about money being drained from there bank accounts.... large figures of cash....
WHAT A NEAR MISS....
My desperation to make a few extra pounds to help pay for food, diesel, animal fodder, could have been a terrible error for this family, I nearly lost sight of our goals our special little bubble we live in,
NOW IM NOT STATING THESE PEOPLE ARE 100% CON ARTISTS AS I WOULD HATE TO BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR SLANDERING THERE LOVLEY LITTLE BUSINES....
BUT FOR ME I CHOOSE TO LISTEN TO THE STORIES ON THE NET...
I CHOOSE NOT TO TAKE THEM UP ON A ONCE ONLY OFFER TO LOOSE MY CASH... YOU CHOOSE HOW YOU FEEL, IF IVE BEEN HARSH I MY JUDGEMENT OR NOT.....
BUT AS A LAST NOTE...
THE EBAY GUY GOT BACK TO ME........
suprise, suprise he had never heard of them, he NEVER had any dealings with them, he never knew they were using him to sell there business idea, we have spoken through mail twice today and it is quite clear they were lying about him.... I WONDER COULD THE REST OF THE STORY BE MORE OF THE SAME????????
YOU DECIDE.... IM OFF BACK TO MY PIGS IN MUD,
My new litter of piglets, my chucks and ducks, my mess my mud, and yes very little money, but I shall carry on,
I USE ADSENSE THEY ADVERTISE ON PEOPLES BLOGS ETC,LIKE MINE....
THEY PAY YOU FOR SURE... WHEN PEOPLE USE THERE ADS, I KNOW THIS FOR SURE...... I HAVE EXPERIENCE OF THEM...... WELL I NOW HAVE EXPERIENCE OF THE OTHERS TOOO,.....
You want to make money out of clicks?? then set up an interesting blog, hopefully more so than mine as I only have 8 followers.... much appreciate though you are.... and go look into moneytising your blog, look up ad sense.. see if its for you.... they are not a scam they make you money.....
