@Heather – again the stock market would be the perfect opportunity, but my thinking at the time was outside the box. I’ve seen people follow some individuals online as if they were “god” (with a little g) that couldn’t put useful stuff together to save their lives. Yet they buy and buy….

What a crazy scam - but so very clever on behalf of the scammers. I never heard of this idea before but totally understand now how it works with the stock market. Thanks for opening my eyes! Heather in Beautiful BCs last blog post..Adtech San Francisco 2009

I believe that the biggest problem right now is there are so many people that need something to believe in that they'll be easy prey to scams. When you think about it even if you don't have anything to worry about at the moment in your life financially, but you hear about a chance to make a extra buck or two without doing anything I'm afraid there's a lot of us out there who would do it. This was a great post, and something to make us all think about.Have a great Sunday! jj-momscashblogs last blog post..From a Coma to My Blog
