Make money online ad - $4,000,000,000 daily turnover - is it a scam?

When I saw this advert, I was pretty surprised and obviously the numbers might be a little exaggerated. Surely $2,000,000,000 would do you quite nicely. Anyway I did a bit of research and it seems that Supertradingonline.com is ran by a stock market wizard who goes by the name of 'superman' on various forums. Whether you decide to fork out on his training or not, depends if you are really smart enough to follow the training and play the stock market. If you have the initial money to invest in it and if you have the bottle. 'Superman' seems to be one of the good guys out there and is simply amazing at finding companies whose stocks rise. 

You can take a look at his twitter account https://twitter.com/super_trades before you go ahead and purchase and also decide if it's definitely the thing for you rather than being blinded by the numbers!

Postanyarticle.com: Is Post Any Article a scam?

I do not believe Post Any Article is a scam, they have no reason to be. Unless sites hold a high-ranking, there's really no reason to write your article anywhere else than your own blog or website though. Sure they give you a share of the profits but if you wanted to, you could have it all for yourself. A lot of people use websites like Post Any Article to cross-post, this will not bring you much traffic in. Others choose to write about their daily life, which is also not going to bring in a great deal of advertising revenue. 

What you really want is decent content with good keywords. I'm not totally sure how the Adsense model works with sites like Post Any Article because there are bound to be posts that break the Adsense policies before the moderators latch on to it, in that case they could technically lose their Adsense account surely? A lot of readers are there to make money and write and are not likely to be clicking on your adverts.

Either way, the majority of these kind of sites do eventually seem to pack up and while they offer money for putting very little effort into it, I'm of the belief that you'd be better off writing on your own. Of course that can also go wrong, should you not abide to the Adsense rules. 

Why Skip McGrath's Amazon Affiliate Package Is Not Worth It

Skip McGrath is one of the many online sellers offering an e-book on how to earn your riches from setting up a website with Amazon Affiliates. Whilst I'm not going to say it's a scam, buying such a book is a waste of money. There is a whole host of people who buy up these books and don't act on it or don't put enough time in to the final product and then give it up. Setting up an Amazon Affiliate blog or website is not particularly complicated.

All you need to do is:

Set up an Amazon associates account
Find a niche
Write catchy blogposts / reviews in the area of your product
Post the widget (preferably with an image) at the end of your blogpost

The results will vary depending on the items that you are focussing on. Music, for example is not a particularly good idea. Less people buy music than ever before, there's quite a lot of websites that review albums and so it's quite tricky to compete, unless you focus on a less popular type of music. The price of albums is relatively low and as your earnings are commission based, you are better off looking at more expensive items.

So nothing particularly against Skip, I just think that what he's got to say is widely available info, some people act on it and some people don't. It's not as easy as he makes out but it is a feasible form of income. 

Is Flipping4Profit a scam site?

My first thought when I looked at Flipping4Profit is that it was too good to be true. Becoming a member costs you $100 and it's not overly clear what the minimum investment is. It's all very eye friendly the website but there's not enough proof of purchases - documents and the like.

I would not like to say that it's a scam for sure, as I have no proof but websites that specialise in flipping real estate profits are often based on a pyramid scheme. What they do is pretend that the house was sold for a higher amount than it actually was, investors are happy with their returns and word spreads, more people plough money in until one day it eventually collapses.

As with all pyramid schemes, if you get in early you can actually make a profit, regardless or not of it's legitimacy. If you recommend it to your friend's or business partners, you could potentially lose those ties when it all goes pear-shaped.

Is Bubblews a Scam? They closed my account

The latest writing website on the market is Bubblews, they claim that 'the days of sharing ad revenue with the content creators is over', but for how long? Bubblews appears to be a bit of a pyramid scheme. Some people are getting paid out, certainly enough to keep people signing up and keep writing. There is also a downside and a lot of people are very vocal about it.

Out of interest I went over there and set up an account. I read the terms of using the site and steered clear from stealing content or any of the obvious things that would get you thrown off a website like that. I wrote two rather straight forward posts about football on different days. A few days later I logged in and it wouldn't accept my password, I tried to click on 'forgot my password' and I was told that no such account existed. I checked the links to my old posts and they had been deleted, the account was no where to be seen and the $3.00 I had accumulated had vanished in to thin dust.

I had no explanation and never received a reply from them. Even if for some reason they are not a scam, they could do this to anyone at any time. So if you're getting a payout, milk them for what they are worth but be aware that they could pull the income from you at any time, so don't put too much heart into it. 

newsdaily7.com scam - work at home mum scam

Recently a common advert that is appearing on numerous places in particular Pirate Bay seems to be an advert saying that "Google pays me £128 per hour" or "Google pays me $76 per hour", it leads to a page that pretends to be the UK version of a News website and leads to the finance page, the other parts of the site do not lead anywhere (news, sport etc), the disclaimer at the bottom says:

grantmecash.net - a review site scam

Lately one of the most common scam websites to appear is the one which doesn't directly sell you anything but instead acts as a go between, this site which uses a simple wordpress template, looks slightly different from your average scam site as it doesn't make any insane claims but the links to the websites will take you to those kind of sites which is where the scam is at.

freddysblog.com - yet another grant scam

This is one of the many relatively average looking people (at least as far as baseball caps Americans go!) who claims to have done well for himself just as he was stuck in a rut.

The blog is a simple scam with a fake cheque and testimonies and hopes to lure you into paying a small fee for a completely pointless grant package. Do not waste time or money here!

downbutneverout.com - don't invest in this scam

These guys might have an excellent domain name but the blog is completely fake and they are basically just ripping you off by getting you to sign up to the google cashkit and free grantkit which are complete scams - offering you no new information but costing you a small fee for "shipping", what's more is they will then have your e-mail address too to send to numerous spammers.

debtfreekelly.com - A scam and waste of money

This website is definitely something you do not want to invest money in, it has scam written all over it to someone who knows what to look for. The cheque is fake and used on hundreds of other blogs, the story is the same old spiel and all she wants to do is sell you 3 pointless products. Admittedly these are at a low price but if she finds enough buyers, she does well. If she is a she of course!

davidscreditstory.com - David scam artist is back on the scene

Yes, you'll notice that this guy has quite a few websites and this is one of the many google checkout and grant offerings that he has - both of which are completely pointless products that only make him money, even though it's just a small amount each time. Steer clear of this con artist

debt-free-dave.com - Another google cash kit scammer

This guy is selling two of the most common scams out there, the google cashkit program and a book about grants, don't believe his hype, the cheques are fake and you'll notice that it says 2 comments and then proceeds to list 10 - this is an automated programme and therefore the comments are completely faked too. Stay away from this one!

kevingotmoney.com - should be called kevin got money from a scam!

Any sites with a name and the word money in should be approached with extreme caution, having been on the look out for scams for some time, I can spot one from a mile off and this has scam spelt all over it.

The claims that you can make huge profits from posting links on google are false but a well used attempt to seperate you from your money. The template and positive feedback has all been used before on other sites and this website will probably be closed down eventually - in the mean time, stay away!

joejenkins.ws - Gdi Scam Artist

The Gdi Scams have been taking off on .ws domain names of late and one of the most advertised ones that I've come across so far is joejenkins.ws, when you click this link it forwards you immediately to the GDIgoldrush page with a referral ID.

Don't fall for this one - for more info on why you should be wary of GDI - check out this post

powerselleracademy.com - Not a scam but not worth your money!

People have been selling info on e-bay as long as e-bay has existed, especially on how to make money on e-bay. Most people seem to know how to make money on e-bay in their heart but by these books just for confirmation and yet still don't follow the methods. E-bay is quite hard work though and if you want to make a big profit, it reqires a lot of work, it's not for someone to do a few minutes of it a day. This book has nothing new - so do you really need to pay £100 a year for it?

Why you should avoid twtad.com for the moment!

Ok, this is very contradictory as it was only a few ays ago that I was recommending twtad.com on here. There has been substantial changes to the website over the last few days though including a change in owner, the payouts altered to ridiculously low amounts and whilst they are back up for the moment - the rules have changed stating that you must post other things than ads on your twitter account. 5 normal posts between every advert and a limit to how many adverts you should put on over a certain period.

Not only this but there are several reports of people not having their earnings credited. The website might change their ways and the earning problem could be more of a technical issue. In the mean time though, I recommend you focus on something else and avoid running your good name through the mud by recommending it to others.

Cashmakermethod.com - A posh website which boils down to a scam

Cash Maker Method have really done their utmost to avoid looking like the typical roulette scam site, their flashy pages and videos, promises to teach you techniques that will make you rich. What it really is, though is several roulette systems which should work on paper but don't work in reality. The only person making money here is this website through affiliates. Stay away from the online casino, if you want to get rich or earn money!

www.money.chipzentrale.com - Old Scam New on the Scene

It's a while since I've unearthed one of the many casino scams on the net but today I came across yet another one. I've mentioned in the past sites which encourage you to start playing roulette wth what seems like a method that may work.

The fact is that there are so many of these that if everyone had done well - there'd be no poverty and no casinos doing business! This doesn't work and although it looks appealing - should be steered clear of. The only people making money here is the webmaster through affilliates and the casino at your expense.

Neilsmoneysite.com - a scam by a well known scammer

Neilsmoneysite.com advertises that he used to make £35 a day and now makes over £51,000 a month, he uses the well known technique of showing a photo of himself on holiday with his pretty wife - he claims to be where ever you are from and says that you can make a packet by signing up through google cash kit - google cash kit is not at all related to google and is a complete scam but what's more interesting perhaps is that this site no longer even leads there but instead to perfspot.com which seems to be a platform like myspace, I suspect this guy might just be collecting information now.

Mrbidwin.com - a new auction scam

These auction scams come and go, I've already uncovered the largely scamming site Madbid. Mrbidwin doesn't quite work the same way, it is free to sign up and they then give you 100 free bids. They then sell money (for instance $1) and people use up their free bids trying to win the dollar, each time a bid is received the clock denoting the remaining auction time is turned back to 1 minute. It's likely you'll win a few times with your 100 bids unless you are bidding too early but the problem occurs when you start spending your own money on it to try to win, in theory you could make 10 bids of 0.10 and still break even if you won on the 10th time but in reality it will be too tricky with bidders on the computer side. A complete waste of time!
