Everybody wants to make money the easy way and really don't want to put much effort into it. We'll want to live the lives we dream of, buy the most expensive house, go on vacation just like taking a shower in the morning. We all want all these and all these cravings lead us to cut corners, cheat people, tell lies, still identity and scam others Think about it, it's because we crave for easy wealth that make us sometimes put our trust and money on home based business that promises heaven without lifting a pen or working hard for it and still make enough money to quick you job. There is always the saying "if it too good to be true, then don't do it." It is almost impossible not to get scammed if you are looking for an easy business that will replace your monthly income without doing anything. take for example, people buy business package and they promise to build your website, do everything and all you have to do is pay the small fee and get your materials. But they never tell you that you will have to pay training fee, advertising fee etc which will cost you thousands in the end. The pyramid scheme is even the worst. There, you only make money by getting people to sign up thereby making the top guys richer. Sometimes you begin to wonder what do they sell? Their could be the the test product you bought with your package or just a bunch of download marketing material, or in some cases nothing. Affiliate sites are funny and lies, they tell you they tested the product and they highly recommend it and that it will make you thousands in your first week. But they themselve are struggling to pay the site hosting and advertising fees. Don't get me wrong not all of them are scams. Again liers and scammers are always the majority. Some site will sell material that are free or that will tell you to build a website, get products from company like www.clickbank.com, www.cj.com etc, post them on your website and then advertise on google.com/adwords, blogs, search engine submissions and keywords. These are infoamtion you could get from forums and site like www.superpages.com/ilt/docs/fixedBro10.pdf People still have hopes and really believe that money could be made from the internet and this is true. goodle adsense could generate small or large income, having internet store were you post mall and stores like best could make you a lot of money. But people still get scammed.

I think as long as there are people who want fast money, there would always be scams. I mean alot of people are only lured to this type of things because of their wants to earn big.

i agree with you hundred percent. as long as people keep wanting the easy way to make money without word hard for it, scamming will always be there. To scam someone is not really what some people wanted but frustration and been desperate could lead someone in that direction. In most case some don't even know they are scamming people, after been brain washed.
