What is a Scam? Most of us know what a Scam is but just to make sure that everyone is on the same page, a Scam is an attempt (whether successful or not) to obtain information or items/monies from a person in a illegal way. Not to confuse you, but Scams can be used legally but are typically written in such a way that they take all responsibility away from themselves such as zerofrictionmarketing. Where this Scam business in their legal information take no responsibility for the accounts created in it, as well as the cash that is deposited into it so that your account will work. One person deposited 1000 dollars into the account and had problems with it. The user e-mailed the business several times regarding his account balance and the issues which the user was having with the site. The user did not receive a response nor a refund because when the account was created the legal information that he agreed to said and I quote "??Any and all Balance for monies within an Account will be reset to 0 if any persons have an account issue pertaining to their Account Balance."?? Moreover due to the nature of the user agreeing to such terms more than likely the Account user will never see his 1000 dollars again...Scary stuff. What do Scams typically do? Although there are millions upon millions of Scams there are also even more ways to confuse and intrigue you enough to buy into what they are trying to sell you. The main purpose of a scammer is to mislead you, most people will not realize but they read into or imagine what a scammer is saying in a "??perfect world"??, such examples are You will receive a house if you you pay 47 dollars for our amazing deal that can"??t be beaten. What the scammer could do to hold up his end of the bargain is give you a small toy house for participating and paying what would have cost them small amounts of money, although this example is corny it is misleading you to think that you are actually getting a house that you could actually live in instead of a small toy house. Anything on the internet that states that if you pay X dollars you will be able to use their secret program in order for you to make millions. Its just common sense, who would give their idea away that made them millions of dollars and hand you the recipe for making it the way they did for an insanely small amount compared to what you would be making. Google Cash Sniper, is a perfect example of this. Google Cash Sniper claims that it will give you the secrets to making millions in a very short amount of time, I personally have seen it as say on its website that it will be as quick as 1 day to 14 days. However, remember what sounds too good is probably too good to be true. What Google Cash Sniper also does its wording is very broad, it never specifically tells you that you will make it in 1 to 14 days but says you "??can"?? make it in as little as 1 to 14 days. Meaning your results will vary. However, Google Cash Sniper does provide a service. Once paying the $1.95 there is a hidden recurring $77 a month charge for the next 11 months. Besides its service of ripping you off every month, it does provide useful information that can be found free of charge by searching www.google.com or any other search engine for that matter regarding free affiliate programs. The Google Cash Sniper gives you a log in id as well as a password that allows you to enter the site which shows you some outdated information regarding how to use Google Adwords and how to use Clickbank.com and get affiliates. Unfortunately the information on the site is useless in order to make "??millions"?? of dollars since it mainly promotes other Scam sites such as zerofrictionmarketing and Salehoo and so forth. However Clickbank.com is not completely based off of scam sites their are sites such as TheArtofApproaching.com as well as AdawareAlert.com that are legitimate sites on Clickbank.com. Although from my experience there are not that many to choose from to be honest. I know because I was scammed from Google Cash Sniper and do use affiliate programs to make extra money however Clickbank.com is not usually one of the ones I use for the affiliate programs that are available.
