If It Seems To Good To Be true Then It Probably Is

Just my point of view on all the scams on the internet

My name is Dale Mazurek and I want to talk to you about making money online. Actually I want to talk to you about not making money on line. I want to give you one persons view about all the internet scams out there. First however I am going to tell you a little about myself. I am a 39 year old male from Alberta, Canada. I am married to a beautiful woman by the name of Jackie and I have 3 wonderful boys aged 20, 17 and 15. I have been lucky to be a part of the oil patch in Alberta for about 16 years and i've been lucky to make a great career in the safety field. However that’s not what this story is about. This story is just a warning from a personnel point of view. I will promise anyone who reads this that no where in this story is there a link to go to the best internet business in the world. It’s just a story to express my frustration.

I guess I have been surfing the net for about 9 or ten years and i'm no different than millions of other people out there. I was always looking for that one opportunity that would put me over the top. I have found thousands of them. I have even probably spent thousands. But no more. Oh yes it’s been a costly venture and thankfully the money I have lost hasn’t affected me that much but there are a lot of people that it does affect. There are people who are down and out and spend their last dollar to find that pot of gold. These are people that should be using that dollar to buy a loaf of bread for their family.

“MAKE 10000 DOLARS OVER NIGHT.”
“MAKE 5000 DOLLARS IN YOUR SPARE TIME.”
“MAKE A MILLION DOLLARS WITH NO EFFORT.”
“BE RICH IN 2007.”

These are just a few of so many clichés out there. Oh some would say it’s my own fault for falling for the scams and by all means I do take some of the blame. Some would also say that you can make money using the internet. I don’t doubt that either. I’m just sick of all the scamming that’s going on. I’m sick of getting hundreds and hundreds of emails basically telling me the same thing if I read between the lines. “Bend over because your about to get screwed again.” Again I do take some of the blame but what you have to realize is that it’s not me I’m worried about. It’s the little desperate guy.

The only way to make money on the net or off the net is good old fashioned know how and hard work. I have recently started something that I am not going to tell you about and in two weeks I have made 58 cents. That 58 cents means more to me than any thing else because I have earned it myself. I wasn’t scammed and I don’t have to scam any one else. This opportunity will make me more money but its going to take a long time and a lot of hard work and chances are I will never be rich doing it.

You always hear that about 95 percent of the opportunities out there are scams. Don’t believe that. That number is considerably low. I would without any evidence say that the number is more like 99.9 percent.

So all in all I would beg the scam artists to stop scamming and I would beg the wishers to think twice before spending money you are going to regret in the morning.

I know this writing is a little mixed up but I think anyone who reads it will get the jest of it.

There is one more thing I would like to say. If there truly is someone with a real and I mean real work at home opportunity then you could leave me your email in the comments section. I am warning you however that if in any way anyone try’s to get me selling herbal products or anything like that you will get no where with me. I still and always will want to work on line but I have learnt my lessons. My true interest is writing so I wouldn’t mind talking to someone who may be able to help me with my writing. But once again stuff like data entry is not what i’m looking for. Please don’t try and screw me or scam me because I promise it won’t work so only leave me an email address if you truly have an opportunity that is legit and not a scam.

I'm in the same boat. Nothing beats good old fashioned knowledge. There are a LOT of people that should be reading your story.
