Someone tried to scam us! Now, I know that sounds horribly naive, but never fear, the scammer did not win, our internal instincts said WHOA! and we listened! You know the old saying, "If it sounds too good to be true, it IS!" Listen to those old sayings, someone thought them up for a darn good reason! Whether someone is trying to make claims to ezine size, program rewards, and the like, our common sense needs to be listened to and trusted. That warning bell that goes off - ringing to beat the band - IS telling you something - just listen! Be on your guard. You're surfing along and are bombarded with $5 programs to make you rich... or by doing nothing, your downlines will be built for you - you never have to lift a finger. Hah! RING, RING, RING! It's red alarm fire time! My personal belief is that the internet DOES hold tremendous potential for anyone who'd like to pursue a goal - financial or otherwise. Just use your head and pick your battles (I mean programs!) wisely. Be alert! Many people have said it in many ways, but the very best thing you could do for yourself is make a big sign, "If it sounds too good....!" and hang it by your computer. Here's to happy successes and less scams on the net. May you attain your hearts desire - through hardwork. ======================================= About the Author: A 12-year veteran of marketing, Theresa Cahill publishes TheWizWorld Ezine http://www.thewizworld.com and owns and operates My Wizard Ads, your one-stop spot for ezine advertising, solo ads, banners and more.
