Scams Galore / myLot

I am pretty sure I am not alone on this one, but it really does feel like more and more everything I see is some sort of scam. If not a complete scam, then they employ some scammy tactics to get whatever they have sold. Maybe I am just being more cynical as I age, which is a very good possibility, but I also see more warnings about them too so I don't think I am imagining it all. I think a lot of it has to do with the proliferation of the internet and just how much easier it is to pull them off, but there could be more to it. Either way, make sure you are staying safe and being cautious out there.

I would say so. I don’t look as much as I used to for online earnings so it seems like I am not seeing them as much. But I am sure they are out there.

I think fraud is an integral part of sales marketing. It is the best way to get the maximum benefit at the expense of others. Salespeople often do it on purpose or not. Being careful is not enough, we have to be observant and careful so that we are not easily deceived.
