>> I joined this data entry program a couple of weeks ago. The job is so

>> According to their claim on their web page www.datamoneyonline.com, I

>> I am still in contact with them with questions and awaiting answers.
>> Their charge for this great opportunity is ONLY $197. one time payment.
>> "If you make no money, we don't process the payment."
>> I have read in other scam blogs that they deposit $4. and some cents

>> I'll let you know how much trouble I will have to get my money back...
>> Visit their site below, but do not think of joining until you hear

>> Honestly!
>> Louise,Montreal, Quebec, Canada
>> Another victim may bite the dust soon!If you do the math on the earnings claims you will see how ridiculous this is. It says on their website that over 20,000 people have tried this program. Then later it shows the "collective money made by members", which is $2,309,594.87. So if you divide that by 20,000 members, that averages to a sweet $115.48 per member. Wow, where do I sign up? What a joke.

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. Although we may, from time to time, monitor or review discussions, postings and the like on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, we are under no obligation to do so.

You are likewise prohibited from posting any false claims against any company or individual. We will fully cooperate with any law enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing us to disclose the identity of anyone posting any such information or materials.

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!!). |
