I recently received some letter from these dudes named martin shaeffer and bernie wilkerson. They claimed to have a program that gauranteed money thru some gifting program thingamajig. Has anyone else heard of these guys? What are your opinions on these sort of things? I think its all a piece of crap.
Yeah, I've heard of it. You can make money on it, but I don't think it's legal.
I used to know a couple who made LOTS of money off that stuff, but last I heard, they got in big trouble over it.
Just the name makes it reek of a scam.
the fact that they (the aforementioned couple in my last post) actually started one of those gifting programs is probably a good chunk of the reson why they made so much money..
Yeah, its called a Pyramid Scheme. They'll tell you that all you have to do buy a product off of them and sell it for your profit. And you have to wrangle in 3 or 4 more people into the same deal. But, if you don't sell all the product, you not only lose money on that, but you'll owe them more for not making quota.
I'd tell them to kiss off.
My advice is the same as crptcblade's. While it does seem possible to earn money off it, somebody does loose in the end and there is only one way of guaranteeing that it isn't you.
Anything that resembles a pyramid scheme is a bad idea. I can't believe how stupid people can be sometimes when they go the the local news and say stuff like "I entered this pyramid scheme, I handed over £xxx thousands and I've lost everything", and you just sit there and think "you're so darn stupid it's not funny".
The only people who get anything out of these schemes are the people who start them - from the gullible people who think they can get something for nothing.
Yeah - that's where the whole scam lies, in tricking people's stupidity.
And let's face it, there's no better source of income in modern society :rolleyes:
