Do people actually ever learn? The 12 Daily Pro fiasco

I am concerned that many people here are looking for a quick easy way to make money. Let me be perfectly blunt it just doesn't happen that way. Yes the Internet can be lucrative for people who are prepared to work hard, be creative and who are prepared to learn. It can also be extremely lucrative for con artists, scam merchants and other low life who just know that there is a sucker born every minute. The worst case of this I've seen is the Autosurf "industry " which came to a screeching halt when 12DailyPro keeled over. I thought that at that time most people would wake up and smell the coffee. I couldn't believe it when the same advocates of 12 Daily Pro picked themselves up, dusted themselves off and started flooding my inbox with even sillier schemes. Lots of people got very badly burnt with 12 Daily Pro and the fallout hasn't stopped yet. My understanding of the situation is those people that actively advocated the scam (that's what it was folks) are likely to be charged in the future. YOu can read the full proceedings here http://www.thenonfor12dailypro.com/ It doesn't make good reading. So it disturbs me greatly when I see people advocating doublers, triplers, one up systems, HYIP and autosurf. I'm sure I've left a few off and yet there will be people who even after reading this and warnings by people far more eloquent and experienced than me will still get sucked in to the next big thing. Please take this simple piece of advice. If it is too good to be true, it is Cheers

Thanks Mark This made very Interesting reading as I have joined 2 or 3 auto surfs programs myself mainly for the many free credits they give upon sign up. I was wondering how they worked especially the ones which I have joined as they have very quick timers 4-5 seconds so you do not get time to look at individual pages same for people to visit mine, now I know Its doesn't work. I know now to avoid them In the future.
