Data Entry Made Easy is one of many clones who teach affiliate marketing by teaching you to place ads - free and ppc - to market affiliate products found on Clickbank, LinkShare, Commission Junction, etc. Those are the companies who would love you to promote their products. You keep the commissions from whatever you are able to sell. You are given information on how to write ads, where to place them, and which products or types of products tend to sell better than others, how to look for yet untapped niches, etc. If you carefully read the sales page and look at the screen shots, you should see all of this, or at least enough so you know what you are getting. A screen shot is about as clear as it can get.
SOME people do extremely well with this, but most either don't have enough seed money to get a good start or don't ever quite master the concept. Depending on where you are starting from, there can be quite a steep learning curve.
Either way, it isn't for everybody, but as I have said before, that does NOT make it a scam or a fraud. You DO get information and it is up to you to make it work. (BTW, it isn't for me. I know how I am . . . . )
The $39 - or whatever - you pay is for the information and instructions you receive, and is how the person who put the instructions together makes HIS living.
If writing sales copy isn't for you, or if you have not done well with AdWords in the past, you should probably continue to look for some other way to make money from home.
Most of these companies such as Data Entry Made Easy toss in bonuses such as a list of survey sites. Doing surveys might be kind of fun while you wait for the laundry to finish, but it will never pay your bills.

FIB - Scams 101 is maintained by Lesley Fountain with WebBBS 5.12.
| PLEASE READ THIS LEGAL NOTICE CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU FILE A LAWSUIT OR EVEN WASTE TIME THINKING ABOUT IT. It has been done before, but never successfully. In fact, the last dodobird who tried it ended up being ordered to pay more than $77,000 in attorney fees ($65,000+ to my attorneys and $12,000+ to my co-defendant's legal advisor).
If your attorney is worth his salt, he's going to tell you that the expense of filing a lawsuit you can't win is a whole lot worse than any "damages" resulting from messages posted on this insignificant little chunk of cyberspace. NEWS FLASH: I didn't just climb down off that ol' turnip truck yesterday. I'm well aware that expressing a negative opinion, relating one's personal experience, and restating provable facts are all legal in this country and do not constitute libel, slander, or defamation -- so you don't want to play games with me, and you sure don't want to start something you aren't prepared to finish. I don't take threats lightly, and I don't accept bribes (or did you call it a "mutually-beneficial arrangement"?). I'll turn you in faster than you can yell, "ARREST ME, I'M SCUM!!" Do yourself a favor and turn your legal team loose in greener pastures.

In closing, I would like to remind you once again that it is still legal, in this great country of ours, to express a PERSONAL OPINION, as long as it is presented as opinion and not as fact. And finally, all you scammers out there will do well to remember that TRUTH IS AN ABSOLUTE DEFENSE against charges of libel, defamation, and slander... so if you're operating just a hop, skip, and jump ahead of the law, you might want to think twice before doing anything stupid... (AND SHAME ON YOU!!). |
