Watch Out for Clever SPAM
Anyone with a WordPress Blog should install the free plugin Akismet which filters all the spam comments for you.
You have to be careful with some plugins because they can eat up memory and slow down your blog loading time. However if you only install one plugin – Akismet is the one. You don’t want a stream of links to porn or gambling sites suddenly appearing on your blog.
I have had Akismet installed from day one of my blog, and the only spam that has got through are from the early days. In my naivety I didn’t realise that “what a fantastic blog” was just a spam comment.
Financial Trading Scam
Louise Woof sells trading systems by showing results that she had achieved. However she didn’t achieve them! She simply took a graph of the previous days trading and drew in buy and sell entry/exit points to demonstrate the mythical money she made. Anyone can do this, but no one can do it in real-time. Hindsight is a very powerful tool.
Louise Woof is obviously a prime candidate for my ’Unethical Sales’ category. She started off with her outright lies, showing forged examples of her days trading. Now she is more careful and only shows possible earnings.
GUARANTEED to Lose Money
How do the greedy money-making liars get away with it? Why aren’t they on the front pages of our newspapers, or in court?
Simple. They make sure that anyone who complains gets their money back very,very quickly. Job done. Complainant shut up….Thousands of more punters still sending in their money. Lovely Jubbly.
The most effective weapon for a greedy liar is the money-back guarantee. Unsuccessful liars have 10 or 14 day guarantees, average liars have 30 day guarantees, rich liars have 12 month guarantees!
Mike Filsaime – Butterfly Marketing
I have read many Internet Marketing forums where Mike Filsaime has a very bad name. I was therefore quite shocked to receive details of his “Butterfly Marketing” system via my membership of the Masterclass. I thought maybe the forums were wrong, but I had enough doubt not to bother reading the ”Butterfly” system.
I now see that the information I had was correct, Masterclass members are complaining in our own forum about “Mr F”. I am not going to pussy-foot about, “Mr F” is Mike Filsaime and I wouldn’t touch him with a barge pole.
Greedy Money-Making Liars
Greedy money-making liars have been with mankind since the invention of money itself.
Kublai Khan in the 13th Century first implemented a nation-wide system of transactions based on paper money. So when he wasn’t forging the biggest empire the earth has ever seen, killing every man,woman and child in the cities that resisted him, he was printing money. Lovely jubbly.
Greedy money-making liars are in good company.
In this blog section I am not just going to play it safe and only mention the greedy liars who are dead and cannot sue me. I’m going to name names and look at the greedy money-making liars who are around today. Those who want to make themselves richer, by making promises that will end up with you being poorer.
Money-Making Schemes and Me
I love money making schemes! I’m a great fan of them. It’s been one of my hobbies since I bought the first one in 1975. I have been buying them ever since.
They are a hobby though, and all hobbies cost money.
I’m more concerned about people who buy into these schemes thinking they are real. Often these people are hard-up, may be desperate and even mentally ill.
It’s not right to take money from these vulnerable members of society. Greedy liars however don’t worry about this. The vulnerable members of society actually provide a constant stream of new customers.
So before you start whining, ‘Oh no, not GIVING more MONEY to John AGAIN’, I’m going to put your mind at rest right now…
