Tweet

Whilst I was doing my research, I came across a list of "digital marketing" opportunities, which at a closer look appears to be obvious scams. I know that some of the myLotters are always on the look out for fresh earning opportunities. So I would like to share my list of Top 5 scams with you all. #5: Exciting, fresh, marketing opportunity on social media management for big companies. No experience needed. Contact us NOW! - This is an obvious one, just ask yourself one question, why would a reputable company hire people with no experience to do their social media management? This is a key component of their marketing strategy. Genuine roles of this nature all have very rigious selection criteria. #4 JOIN our army of marketeers and send out pre-written emails to a list of contacts we have in our database. You will be paid if they open the email and click on the link. Sounds too good to be true? Sure it is too good to be true! Now if they already have the email list and the content, why do they need another person to click the send button? It's because you will need to pay set up cost to this, and in some cases, you will be sending out viruses! #3: Telemarketeer needed for busy distribution company. Get paid $$$$ resending on packages delivered to you to another address! Welcome to the mule's club! #2: User experience marketeer needed to test a new PayPal app! Install the app, deposit $1 USD, we'll pay you $40. Why would PayPal ask a bogus company to do this? Answer is simple, you install APP, it will steal all your information such as passwords and account details. It will worth more than the $40. #1 MAKE $$$ with Your BLOG! This is a very very good one, a dream that most bloggers have. Whilst there are some genuine opportunities out there in Affiliate Marketing, there are also some of the biggest scams! One popular one, is we'll give you some promotional discount codes to give to folks who buy from you. Those codes turn out to be stolen. Once the company catches up and deactivate those codes, your customer comes back to you mad. Your contact magically vanishes with your set up fee. Moral of the story, don't trust bogus affiliate companies, always check their legitimacy. Something smells off, just tell them to push off! So ya! These scams really spoil the industry for the rest of us! Have you come across such scams? Or think you might just seen one, please share with us!
