FIB - Scams 101 - Ye Olde Archives

A friend emailed me on day 2 of PWS. Since it was so new I bet $69.95 just to
see what would happen.
I used the word 'bet' on purpose because something like PWS is like betting.
Here is what happened so far three weeks into it. I did a little promotion,
posted on a few forums and safelists. A few people took the tour, no one has
upgraded.
Just checked my back office and there are 16,970 who have upgraded and
128,459 taking the tour. But and it is a big but...those numbers are for the
WHOLE company not just my downline. So it is misleading because it looks like
all those upgrades are in my downline but they aren't.
Even though I joined on the second day there were still over 7,500 who joined
ahead of me.
At the end of week one there were NO people who had joined that were in my
paying matrix. At the end of week two there were 4 people in my paying matrix.
So I made $4, wow that sure is exciting :-) Course you have to earn at least
$8 before a check is issued so I have really earned NOTHING so far.
Tonight is the end of week three and at 12 midnight I will find out how many
more people are in my paying matrix.
People who have huge lists and know how to market to get people to join will
make a killing in this. The top referred has over 700 paying members. Multiply
that by $25 that is paid as a fast start bonus, it is over $17,000. Not bad
for a couple weeks.
My feelings are that a lot of people are going to get burned for $70 in this
thing. After the first week, I saw how it really worked so I stopped promoting
it.

| 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.

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.

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!!). |
