Fast IM scams
How often do you get caught up in the Fast IM bind? I would wager more often than not. (You now know better now that you are in WA).
There's money to be made in scamming newbies. That's why there's heaps of this rubbish about.
A typical scenario might be as follows. You get an email. The subject line is "Here's a REALISTIC 100/day plan...". The temptation is to click. Don't. Avoid - like the plague.
Don't buy anything from anybody attempting to emotionally engage you to force a quick sale.
Any email that has any permutation of XXX/day is a scam.
Others you might come across in the subject line.

Do yourself a favor. You don't need to go there.
Just send direct to trash.

Thanks for the advice! I just joined a Facebook Group that claims to be a forum for people who earn an income from home and it is ALL SCAMS. I'm really surprised at how many are out there and how persistent their proponents are. Solid advice!
Thanks. I would suggest you make a list of those 'hot-button' scam words.
Prior to purchasing any product or service, just take a minute to see if any of the words the vendor uses matches to any on your scam list.
If 'yes', do not buy.
Anything product or service worth anything sells on the merit of the product. It does not need hot-button scam words to sell it.

Hey Paul, I think greed might play a part in this.

True that, and also financial pressure to get those bills paid!
