Posted By: Jim G In Response To: I just worked my hiney off on a response to Jim G. and it's also a shameless plug.... (MaaMaw)

Hi, MaaMaw....And thanks for taking the time to respond. I failed to receive the newsletters you outlined. Wish I had. They sound valuable. I’m really not looking for something for nothing. I just expect the contents of a news letter to be what it’s advertised to be.
As for what I wrote, I did not make it up...I copied and pasted the paragraph verbatum. Here’s the “newsletter” in its entirety. The last graph is the one that does not agree with the disclaimer on the actual site used to sell the program:
Hi Jim,
Thank you for subscribing to the Internet Marketing Tips
Newsletter.
After doing a survey of our customers and subscribers,
we found just about everyone is looking for the same thing.
I am talking about...
No BS examples of REAL PEOPLE making REAL MONEY and
the exact step-by-step details of HOW THEY'RE DOING IT!
... so you can start applying them to your business TODAY!
I am not talking about mammoth companies with million-dollar
marketing budgets... I AM talking about real people who have
started out JUST LIKE YOU AND ME and been extremely
successful!
Every month, I want you to DISCOVER EXACTLY WHO THESE
SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE ARE and exactly what they are doing to
remain so successful while their competitors come crashing
down around them.
When we found out that this was the information customers
and subscribers like you need to grow your business on the
Internet, we had to literally bribe these successful
individuals to SHARE THEIR MOST COVETED INTERNET MARKETING
STRATEGIES and e-business secrets with you. But after a ton
of negotiations we were successful!
So if you think the exact same strategies and techniques
that have resulted in some of today's hottest Internet
successes -- in an economy with so many businesses failing -- will HELP YOU TO EXPLODE YOUR PROFITS, then this
is your chance.
Go to http://www.SecretsToTheirSuccess.com and you
will BE IMMEDIATELY PRIVY TO CASE STUDIES that show you
the hottest Internet marketing techniques in action.
If you have any questions, please send an e-mail to
stts@marketingtips.com or call 1-888-462-7006
one of our customer support team will be happy to help!
All the best...
Corey Rudl -- President
Internet Marketing Center
P.S. Remember, this is not the theoretical approach that
most Internet marketing courses or consultants will teach
you. These are real people, like you and me, making real
money -- graciously breaking down step-by-step THE EXACT
RESULTS YOU CAN EXPECT TO SEE when you apply them... right
from the horses' mouths! It doesn't get any better than
this!
Thanks again for taking time to respond. (Hope your hiney feels better) lol

| PLEASE READ THIS LEGAL NOTICE CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU FILE A LAWSUIT OR EVEN WASTE TIME THINKING ABOUT IT. It has been done before, but never successfully. In fact, the last dodobird who tried it ended up being ordered to pay more than $77,000 in attorney fees ($65,000+ to my attorneys and $12,000+ to my co-defendant's legal advisor).
If your attorney is worth his salt, he's going to tell you that the expense of filing a lawsuit you can't win is a whole lot worse than any "damages" resulting from messages posted on this insignificant little chunk of cyberspace. NEWS FLASH: I didn't just climb down off that ol' turnip truck yesterday. I'm well aware that expressing a negative opinion, relating one's personal experience, and restating provable facts are all legal in this country and do not constitute libel, slander, or defamation -- so you don't want to play games with me, and you sure don't want to start something you aren't prepared to finish. I don't take threats lightly, and I don't accept bribes (or did you call it a "mutually-beneficial arrangement"?). I'll turn you in faster than you can yell, "ARREST ME, I'M SCUM!!" Do yourself a favor and turn your legal team loose in greener pastures. Although we may, from time to time, monitor or review discussions, postings and the like on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, we are under no obligation to do so. We are not responsible or liable for any claim arising from the content of any such discussions or postings or for any error, defamation, libel, slander, omission, falsehood, obscenity, pornography, profanity, danger, or inaccuracy contained in any information contained within such locations on the Site. You are prohibited from posting or transmitting any unlawful, threatening, libelous, defamatory, obscene, scandalous, inflammatory, pornographic, or profane materials or any material that could constitute or encourage conduct that would be considered a criminal offense, give rise to civil liability, or otherwise violate any law. You are likewise prohibited from posting any false claims against any company or individual. We will fully cooperate with any law enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing us to disclose the identity of anyone posting any such information or materials. By posting messages and/or content on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, you give permission for Lesley Fountain/Friends In Business/Shoestring Success Publications to display, distribute and use the posting and content for publication, advertising, promotion, excerption or example.

If you cannot accept or agree with the terms of service for this website and discussion board, you are advised not to post on this board. In closing, I would like to remind you once again that it is still legal, in this great country of ours, to express a PERSONAL OPINION, as long as it is presented as opinion and not as fact. And finally, all you scammers out there will do well to remember that TRUTH IS AN ABSOLUTE DEFENSE against charges of libel, defamation, and slander... so if you're operating just a hop, skip, and jump ahead of the law, you might want to think twice before doing anything stupid... (AND SHAME ON YOU!!). |
