Taken by the word FREE

I just want to apologize for y previous post. In no small terms I was caught up in the word FREE. After thinking about what I did the free had attachments. In other words, free was not free. When you get desperate and see a chance to get help making money on-line by a person that has made fortunes on-line you get tunnel vision.

After some thought I realized that all I have done was encouraged my followers and friends was to give their e-mail address to a person that I really have no clue if he is good or not. When you are seeing your whole life's work going down the drain you do not think clear. All you see is the words, CONTEST, FREE, MAKING MONEY ON-LINE, your brain goes against the little voice inside that says, don't do it."

I see the power of this type of advertising. I am sorry for asking you to join a contest as all I seen yesterday was the opportunity and positives. Being desperate to make money in this economy can make a person act totally our of character. Today I realize that it was a dirty trick and the negatives of falling into this type of advertising was not worth the post encouraging you to just join the contest.

They got my e-mail and all my followers, family and friends. Everything they offered for free was useless. I just had published a post "Free is not free" three days ago and did exactly what I warned others not to fall for. Everything FREE has attachments unless it has to do with family, friends or nature. I can see how easily these powerful words can cause you to act without thinking. It even caused me go against my mission, vision and values for this blog.

Kelly Says, "Just ignore my last post and I will delete it in a few days. I am very sorry and hope to never get caught up in the moment again with the word FREE and CONTEST"

What is missing in this picture?

Someone sent me an e-mail that caught my eye enough to open it up and see if it was a good money making opportunity on-line. For $1 they would give me a totally functional website that would make me at least $100 in the first 48 hours. After clicking the select button I was on a Paypal page. For 2 days they would charge me $1 and then in 48 hours I would be charged $47 a month.for all this and of course bonuses.

What actually caught my attention: (the devil at work)
  1. For $1 dollar I got a fully automated website with products and all the bells and whistles ( never seen anything for a dollar)
  2. Excited enough with sales pitch I put my e-mail address in (I will win if I risk pulling the handle)

The alarm: (Your conscious at work "is this real")
  1. Sounds too good to be true (Check it out)
  2. Make money form a website created by them, products selected by them to make money for someone they do not even know
  3. No work on my part except to pay them
  4. Did not talk about other costs (advertising largest expense, hosting, etc.)
Common Sense set in: ( the great voice that helps us come back to our senses)
  1. Why would anyone want to do all the work to make me money and I pay them $47 a month to do nothing. 
  2. The cost of $1 trail period was up in 48 hours
Thanks for these voices or little angels that whisper in your ear. I would have doing a dis-service by adding to the dishonest money earned by an dishonest affiliate so he could show you his exorbitant ClickBank account that would be my money. This enemy sucks away the hard earning of honest women or men that are under/unemployed just trying to earn extra income believing someone out there is actually honestly going to make you money on-line. I apologize to all the honest affiliates and marketers as there are a few if I hurt or offended you by this obvious scam.

Greed and pure cruelity from e-mails

I received an e-mail today from what appeared to be the IRS. When you receive something similar and you will do not click on the link or your computer will be gone or your identity stolen. How people can be so cruel as to do this to an unsuspecting honest person is totally out of control.

I have recently received a multitude recently of  e-mails that say: ACH transactions denied, job application attachments and banks that look very real using the companies actual logo in an attempt to make them look real. I even received a Pay Pal notice stating that some attempted to log in to my account stating I need to click the link to take care of the unauthorized use of my account.

Never open a attachment or link on an e-mail before going directly to the site and logging in that way. Turn these people in as we must stop these mean and greedy down right cruel people that only want to harm you. On Pay Pal they have a security site. Forward the suspicious, spam or scam e-mail to the proper companies by going to their website and going to security as they will direct you how to proceed.

These are some ways you can tell if it is a fake e-mail:
  • Is your actual name in the To: 
  • If it says undisclosed recipient do not proceed
  • No bank send e-mails asking for information
  • Go directly to the website in question or call the company
  • Do not call the number on the e-mail
  • Never open a link or an attachment
  • Take the time to forward them to the security department of the company in question
Stop these people that are scamming off the poor and never believe in get rich by pressing a button or automation as it just does not happen that way. Making money on the internet takes time. Do research by tying the name in on a search for the company. If you look far enough down on a Google search you will find out if someone has been scammed by the person or the company.
