OH NO! That Ugly, Insidious "Opportunity" is Back!
5/21/2006 4:03:04 AM
Oh dear! Forumites... It's back - that ugly, insidious "opportunity" (read that as SCAM) masquerading, this time, under the name of 14dailyplus is ready to wreak havoc among all the hopefuls who are desperate to make money - by whatever means. Here we go again, it seems. WARNING BEFORE YOU DELVE ANY FURTHER: - This is not a rant. I'm feeling positively FERAL about the amount of this trash that I cop from some members of Adland. So, if you think you are gonna be offended by strong comments then back out now. Don't say you weren't warned. Want to keep reading? OK. Here we go... Today I received yet another message from another "Adlander," who will remain nameless, who said this... ================= "Hi, Gary, Do you want something that truly and honestly works? Have you lost money in scam HYIP's and autosurfs? Recover your money here! $840. Per Day, Paid To You.....with No Sponsoring... No Prospecting... No Selling..... No Calling.... No Talking... No Emailing.... That's $306,600. per Year! $840. Per Day....Every Day!! In the Advertising Business! Take the next step in the right direction ! Warmest regards, (name deleted) http://www.14dailyplus.com/index.php?(id deleted) ================= Like...WOW! - $840 per day EVERY day of the year for doing JACK SH*T! My kinda business - NOT! When are people EVER gonna learn that this is crap - in its purest form. It's set up simply to siphon money up the sucker tree to the leaves at the top. Eventually the roots die, the wind blows and all the lower and medium and upper leaves fall away. But when you look at the very top of the tree (the crown), well, it was stripped bare long before the wind ever blew. All the money is gone and a new scam is already under way - just like this one! About the opening line... ================= "Do you want something that truly and honestly works?" ================= Pheughwww. ('scuse... that was me spitting) I'm sick of this sort of JUNK! It comes around far too often at Adland. Duh! HOW would this person know? Is this person making this sort of money OR is he/she just repeating the hype that sucked them in? The latter, I'd bet. As the person ended their message... ================= "Take the next step in the right direction !" ================= Yep. I will! AWAY from TRIPE like this. Anybody else sick of this rubbish? It's exactly the sort of approach that has been spoken of many times in this forum. TRANSLATION: "Ive been sucked in. I need you to get sucked in so I can make money." I've had it. Paypal scams, phishing scams, E-Bay scams, bank scams. I don't need even more junk here just because I decided to become a member of Adland. What have I done? Painted a target on my forehead? Duh! Sorry if I offended you with this. But I did warn you, didn't I? Gary PS: This particular person has done their dash with me. Their credibilty is blown to the shizenhausen. Banned. Bye-bye. I never want any more junk from you again.

Hi Gary! Gee! That didn't take too long to come around again did it? Anyone know how 12dailypro made out in the courts after they were shut down? ---------------------------------------- Sorry if I offended you with this. But I did warn you, didn't I? ----------------------------------------- You know what the sad part is Gary? Some people will read what you said and then go and join! For those who do, as the old saying goes, "you get what you deserve"! Here's a post to a past discussion we had on these types of businesses. http://community.adlandpro.com/forums/284678/1/ShowThread.aspx

Hi Winston, Where you been bro'? You said: ================= "Gee! That didn't take too long to come around again did it?" ================= Nope. My take is that it will be like the proverbial merry-go-round. The authorities can shut these things down time and time again but they just keep on coming. They appeal to greed - something for nothing. Hence, they spread like wildfire. The thing that dags me so much is the incessant promotion of them. Adland seems to be a haven for this type of thing. It's like a virus. If more "Adlanders" came to this forum they wouldn't waste their time - or ours because they would know the impossibility or high improbability of this sort of thing. Sure, some people make money - the creators. The rest of them either lose or make such a minimal amount that it doesn't matter. Hey - CALLING ALL CARS! Has ANYBODY out there EVER made $840 out of one of these - not per day - in total! Gary

Hi Gary, -------------------------------------- Where you been bro'? -------------------------------------- It's all Linda's fault! :-) Been working on this course material that Linda has sent us. What a great eye opener! It's now safe to say I've been wasting some time over the past few years! Wish I had known then what I know now! LOL One part of me wants to go, go, go.... But the other part of me has finally taken control and slowed me down so I do things right! (I hope! LOL)

Yo Winston! Way to go! - methodically. That darn Linda - LOL! I was just thinking some more about all these dumb scams... I read a book called "Guerilla Marketing" a while back. It was all about different, off-beat marketing approaches to get attention. Unfortunately, the people who proliferate this dailypro type stuff must have mistaken the name for "Gorilla Marketing" - ie if you monster out enough junk somebody has to take notice - or take pity upon you.
