I always thought you had to be an expert to make money on the Internet. I came across this site: http://cli.gs/MakeMoneyOnGoogle one day and happened to qualify for the free kit! The way it has changed my live is incredible.

It didn't take long for me to start bringing in a few hundred dollars per week! I couldn't believe it! I have recommended this kit to all of my friends: http://cli.gs/MakeMoneyOnGoogle

There are scams out there, I lost some money a while ago and luckily I stopped putting money in 6 years ago, I tried to get my money back and it was to late. I would recommend people to stay away from World Financial group and Western Reserve Life, they scammed me out of some money. I hope everyone have a good summer and don't believe anything that sounds to good to be true.

There are several scams going on right now right under the AOL wing. The acai berry, teeth whitening and reduce cellulose are really trouble makers. They offer a free trial sample and all you have to do is pay S&H of $5-$6. You have 15 days to cancel your so-called membership; otherwise they will electronically take out $70 or $80, even $90 every month from your account. Trouble is, no one answers the phone to accept the cancel call. Or the website has no place to type the cancellation. One of these has been caught and has to repay the monies it falsely removed from the bank accounts. This scam is in beauty and anything that sounds like a great deal, with free samples and a small S&H. BUYER BEWARE. THE OLD "IF IT SOUNDS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE, IT IS A SCAM". IF YOU WANT TO GET LOW COST PRODUCTS, JUST GO TO YOUR LOCAL DOLLAR STORE, NEIGHBORHOOD WALMART, KMART, ETC., OR THE CLUBS SUCH AS COSTCO, SAM'S, ETC. SAVE COUPONS, READ EVERYTHING THOROUGHLY, AND SHOP LOCALLY, IN CASE AN ITEM NEEDS TO BE RETURNED. THE LARGE SHOPPING CHANNELS ARE SAFE, BUT YOU NEED TO RETURN YOUR ITEMS WITHIN 30 DAYS OF YOUR INVOICE OR ORDER DATE, INSURE EVERYTHING, AND RETURN IT ON YOUR OWN, WHICH IS LESS EXPENSIVE THAN THEIR PREPAID SHIPPING LABEL. Unfortunately, we do live in a greedy world, where people and companies are out to get you, so you need to use common sense, and stay away from things that you question. And that goes for men and women who become your sudden best friend, then come up with a story for money, working on your sympathy and known assets. It goes on way too often, and is as old as the ladies of the night.

Maybe it's time to bring back crucifixion for those who start these scams.

Rebecca says..." It's okay. I think every other person including myself have been caught up in such a scheme. " That's because all of them are just too damn gullible. There have been warnings, blogs and news articles about these scams in here for years. WAKE THE F**K UP, PEOPLE!! The only reason they're still around is because of people like Rebecca.
Stop paying attention and they'll eventually disappear. There is NO free ride. You want white teeth....go see your dentist. You want to lose weight...go see your doctor.

Many people are greedy, and often act stupid. If you believe that a COMPANY that will teach you how to make money uses an email address with gmail, well than you are asking for it. If they can't afford their own domain they probably have nothing to offer.If they charge your credit card unauthorized, dispute it and report the card lost (if you don't have control over the spending on the card is really is lost), they will send you a new card in a few days.

If you look at the "example" included in the story you'll see that it states that "this product has not been approved or endorsed by any governmental agency and this offer is not being made by an agency of the government". It further goes to say that "This is a solicitation". When in doubt all it would take is someone opening their eyes and actually reading what it says. The only issue that I would take is their falsely using state seals on a solicitation. Further, typically a small mom and pop store wouldn't have annual share holders meetings. Not excusing what these people did....just saying that if the recepients bothered to actually read the mail they received, they'd know it wasn't from the government and that it was a solicitation of services.

Paid under $6 for a Google kit. Never received it. Next month got a bill for $73. Credit Card Company issued credit for all of it.

Giant rip off. No longer use Google, now use Bing.
