DON’T BELIEVE IT!!!!
I just got riped-Off for 130 bucks from their “SO-CALLED” Rebate Program.
Their ads state you get $25 for one tube and $50 if you get 2 tubes,
BUT, (as always), the lawyers have put in the fine print so they NEVER have
to pay it out.
If you have ‘any’ type of Medicare/Medicaid/’or’ ANY other state or federal insurance
program (EVEN IF THEY DON’T PAY A DIME/(Claim denied) ), just having that
coverage is their way of getting out of paying out the rebate!
OH! Here’s another good one — How much do you get for all that money?!?!?!
Each tube= 30g or 1.06oz so for a 130 bucks you get a whole 2.12 OUNCES!!!
If you are treating any large area and you’re applying it twice a day; those two tubes WILL NOT last you a month!! And you’ll need to use this ‘stuff’ for
at least 6 months or more!
This means you can plan on spending about a thousand bucks out of YOUR Pocket
and “NO” guarantee that it will work.
Boy! Has this been an interesting two weeks of learning/RE-Learning
about the latest AV Programs out there, and “IT’S BEEN A COSTLY
LESSEN!”
Did I get hammered, no thanks to Avast5.
First it let in one of those “fake anti virus” that takes over your
computer and labels everything as corrupted with hundreds of
pop-up screens/blocks all updates/blocks your browser so it’ll
only go to ‘their’ chosen sites, (Many are porn).
It took me about 6 hours to clean up the mess, (I’m still finding a
few files here and there.) (OH! and you can forget about your ‘restore
points’ as they are totally useless now.)
Then on this other computer it lost all ability to protect my emails,
(In and Out), BUT! That didn’t stop Avast5 from loading up my
taskbar with dozens of notices tell me that it can’t protect me, a lot
of good that does.
Well Avast5 must have screwed up 10′s of thousands of computers
because their next update was a “MAJOR” over kill!
They locked down everything!
You can’t configure any settings or options even as Admin.
They have taken total control.
Shut off sound files/notices — NO (If you leave your computer on
24/7 like I do You will have an automatic alarm clock set to about
4 AM to 5 AM every morning. That’s when it turns your speakers
to full and screams at you that Avast5 has been updated.)
Tell it your computer is online 24/7 — NO
Tell it to auto-update it’s own program — NO
etc.
etc.
GEEE!?!?! This is starting to look and sound just like the ‘faked’ AV
virus I got rid of.
OH YEAH! Here’s another good one…. Avast5 decided that two
Microsoft DLL files were also viruses so it deleted them, now I get
errors after every reboot and I can’t find replacement for them, not
even from MS.
Support??? One form email — no farther replies.
Needless to say Avast is no longer on any of my machines.
Bounce Dryer Sheets, And We’ve just been putting Bounce in the dryer.
1. It will chase ants away when you lay a sheet near them.
2. It takes the odor out of books and photo albums that don’t get opened too often.
3. Repels mosquitoes. Tie a sheet of Bounce through a belt loop when outdoors during mosquito season. (You might add one in your shirt collar as well.)
4. Eliminates static electricity from your television screen. Since Bounce is designed to help eliminate static cling, wipe your television screen with a “used” sheet of Bounce to keep dust from resettling.
5. Dissolve soap scum from shower doors. Clean with a sheet of Bounce.
6. Freshen the air in your home. Place an individual sheet of Bounce in a drawer or hang in the closet.
7. Prevent thread from tangling. Run a threaded needle through sheet before beginning to sew.
8. Prevent musty suitcases. Place an individual sheet of Bounce inside empty luggage before storing.
9. Freshen the air in your car. Place a sheet of Bounce under the front seat.
10. Clean baked-on foods from a cooking pan. Put a sheet in a pan, fill with water, let sit overnight,
and sponge clean. The antistatic agent apparently weakens the bond between the food.
11. Eliminate odors in wastebaskets. Place a sheet of Bounce at the bottom of the wastebasket.
12. Collect cat hair. Rubbing the area with a sheet of Bounce will magnetically attract all the loose hairs.
13. Eliminate static electricity from venetian blinds. Wipe the blinds with a sheet of Bounce to prevent dust from resettling.
14. Wipe up sawdust from drilling or sand papering. A “used” sheet of Bounce will collect sawdust like a tack cloth.
15. Eliminate odors in dirty laundry. Place an individual sheet of Bounce at the bottom of a laundry bag or hamper.
16. Deodorize shoes or sneakers. Place a sheet of Bounce in your shoes or sneakers overnight.
17. Golfers put a Bounce sheet in their back pocket to keep the bees away.
If you have any other tips? Please post them in the comments.
You know the ones… They start out at 5 to 7 bucks and go up 5 to 10 cents every half hour.
Most times they are a bundle of 4 to 10 Ebooks and scripts and hyped up to look like they are worth a fortune, “BUT” YOU! can have them for just pennies on the dollar.
Well guess what folks….. 90% of those (If not ALL), are “FREEBIES or Donationware” that you can have just by doing a simple Google search and many times they are ripped-off clones.
I use-to-be on a list from a guy in Canada; every week he has a bundle of products for just 7 bucks. Well about two Christmas ago he had this Super-Duper Packaged deal “Just for his Loyal Subscribers”, As a Christmas Special…. YEAH RIGHT!!!!
He bundled up a bunch of FREE products and tried to sell them for $97.00!!!!!
WOW! What a nice Christmas present he was having at your expense!
Understand something: “They don’t care about you!!!! They only care about their wallet and maintaining their fat 6 figure bank account — AT YOUR EXPENSE! They will do whatever it takes to get the money out of “YOUR WALLET” and into their bank account.
Here’s a good example I just got in… one of those Friday Specials.

Product 1: My Download Area
(Master Resell Rights Included)
——————————
Even if you already have a thank you page, you can
replace it with the ‘My Download Area’ script to save
you time and have your products available to sell
within the shortest possible time!
(Here’s the Alert I got in the same batch of emails)
PRODUCT ALERT!!!
It has been reported by several sites that the product ‘My Download
Area’ a rip-off of someone elses product which you can d/l for free
from: http://files.lordmattandyou.com/my_downloads/
If you’re selling it – well you know what to do……
And if any of your customers or peers are – please let them know…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is happening EVERY WEEK! You are being RIPPED-OFF!
As I’ve said in other posts the good guys are hard to find because of all the scam/rip-off artists that are out there.
It really goes back to that old saying: “BUYER BEWARE!”
To Save yourself a bunch of money…. “IF” you see something that you think you ‘MUST HAVE’ then jump over to Google and search for it and make sure to check out several sites as they might be all promoting the same product at the same price…. so go deeper into the results pages maybe 10 to 15 pages deep…. you just might find out it’s a freebie or 10 to 30% cheaper on another site.
Another thing is to wait a couple of weeks and watch how fast the price drops.
One other thing is to watchout for the “Fear-of-Loss/Greed Trap” (they pull this a lot!) “Buy it now cause it’s going up to a billzillion bucks tomorrow!!!!”
HEY! If the dam thing is over priced to start with, why would I buy it at a higher price?!?!?!?!
Michael Campbell has been long time marketer, but a New Face when it comes to the video screen on USTREAM.TV
Michael Campbell Internet Marketing Secrets has been around the marketing scene for a long time, Pioneering Web Marketing since 1993.
Here’s just some of the topics covered in his test videos:
The most important things an entrepreneur can do.
My largest sources of traffic.
How to increase business.
Why press releases are so effective.
Why he uses Twitter
Points on blogging and bookmarking sites
Even covered what he does about incorporating and taxes.
And a lot more.
He was a breath of fresh air, very relaxed… easy going format.
It was more like a friend or neighbor coming over and sitting around the kitchen table talking about anything and everything.
I watched his two test show and enjoyed every minute.
Looks like they will be on Wednesdays evenings at 7 PM PST.
There are 100′s of ‘People’ out there who have no right teaching anything. Their “ONLY” goal is to make themselves rich off of your hard earned dollars.
Writing a slick sales letter and putting up a cool sales page doesn’t mean that they are really qualified to teach, or that their ‘courses’ are worth wasting your time and money to even download & unzip it… SO-O-O!
If you REALLY want to increase the profits from your Internet Marketing efforts, you NEED to read about what’s been going on in Osaka Japan the past few weeks…
You see, I just received a very interesting update from my friend Kevin Riley. For those of you who haven’t heard of Kevin, he’s the author of a very successful line of Internet Marketing guidebooks that he calls his “Recipes”.
(Kevin lives in Japan with his beautiful — “Gorgeous” Japanese wife. (I’m s-o-o-o-o jealous and I can’t find my passport!!) )
Kevin is extremely good at cranking out popular and informative reports, (it’s his specialty). But, to drive traffic and track the results of his offerings, he turned to another Internet Marketer who also lives in Japan, James B. Allen.
(James also has a beautiful Japanese wife. Spotting a trend here? (“Where did I put that passport“!!!???) )
It turns out that these two experts recently got together in the city of Osaka for a week long brain storming secession. During that time, they spent several days in Kevin’s “Lab” creating a video series teaching all their Internet Marketing secrets.
“James had contacted me, thoroughly disgusted with the skimpy information being drip-fed at expensive IM seminars, (that are only designed to empty your wallet as fast as possible), and ready to tell you the TRUTH on all the super-effective techniques he’s employed to make big profits off the Internet.
“For 3 long days, we locked ourselves in the Lab (only cigars and whiskey kept us alive) and pooled our vast knowledge and experience with product creation, Internet marketing, offline marketing, and business building. We filmed it all.
I’ve had a chance to see the pre-view of the videos; Kevin and James are being very serious and totally open about this. From what I saw they broke it down so even a newbie to Internet Marketing could understand it. I can honestly say – if you are still struggling to increase your online income, you’ll want to check these out as soon as possible.
Incredibly, this video series, which you can download and watch on your computer, includes 19 Videos. That’s THREE full hours of Kevin and James divulging all their techniques for increasing traffic, conversions, sales and profits from your websites, all in a clear and detailed manner.
Are you starting to feel like a lot of the time and money you’ve spent on ebooks, software and training programs/courses for your online business has been in vain?
You are not alone. In fact, getting good “High Quality” information is often quite difficult. You have to do a lot of searching to find the “TRUTH” and not a rip-off.
In fact, as it turns out, there are some people who WANT you to keep wasting your money like that – without getting results. They are the agents of the so-called “Online Income Conspiracy”.
Luckily, there is a simple 3-Key system, so that ANYONE having the desire and the willingness to do the work, can apply tasks to increase their online income – using the tools and training you have already spent money on. (What good is it to have a the tools you need to succeed, but haven’t a clue how to use them?!?!?!)
Learning this system has two powerful benefits.
The first – it will help turn what you already know into increased online profits.
Secondly, it will keep you from ever being duped, (RIPPED OFF), by the conspiracy guru’s again and again. The 3-Key system virtually guarantees any future purchase you make to help your online business will actually be a good investment. (You may have seen the term “ROI” which simply means: “Return On Investment” and THAT’s what you should be thinking of and looking for.)
Knowing this system, you’ll quickly be able to spot the cons and the scams and avoid wasting your money on them ever again.
Kevin Riley and James B. Allen (The Good Guys I told you about), have just released a FREE report that reveals both this “Online Income Conspiracy” that has been working against you AND the “3-Key” system that will improve your online income and release you from the conspiracy’s stranglehold.
You don’t even need to provide your name or email address – just click, download, read… and be enlightened and armed with a potent formula for success.
I can personally tell you that Kevin is a straight shooter and an ‘overdeliver-er’ — He’s proven his worth time and again, so please checkout his ebook and see for yourself.
You want the honest truth?!?!?! Go M-O-O-O-O because you’re nothing but a ‘cash cow’ to them.
You’re an open wallet for them to dip into every time they need a new supply of cash!!!
They will bate you with every ‘Golden Egg’/'Super Secret’/'Instant Riches’ schemes to help THEM empty out your wallet and make themselves richer.
The Truth is they NEVER want you to succeed and become their competition, not until they’ve tapped your wallet dry, at least.
Here’s what a ‘former’ insider had to say about it: Quoted from the ebook report with permission from Kevin Riley.
Former Insider: “It’s quite simple actually. The Online Income Conspiracy wants to make as much money off you as they can, without you ever becoming enlightened enough to become their competition. They are so clever that every single day they convince many many people – struggling and aspiring online entrepreneurs – to continue to pay them for the “privilege” of being kept in the dark!
“It’s insane!
Former Insider: I was explicitly told by my mentor NOT to “teach” anything. I was just to explain the “what” and NOT the “how” – and keep “upselling” to more expensive solutions at these events.
“That’s the process that the entire Conspiracy is based on – a sales funnel that NEVER provides real value at any level – except to the seller.”
“They feed on your greed and your insecurities – and your hard-earned income. And they do it well.
“Mostly though, they feed on your lack of knowledge – your naivety.”
NOW: With all that said I want you to know that there are still a lot of honest hard working marketers out there, but they are getting hard to find because of all the smoke and mirrors of the GURU’s.
Like I said: This blog is dedicated to help warn you about the rip-offs and try to keep you from being burnt — Like I have been over the years. I learned the hard expensive way and I’m going to do my best to stop them from doing it to you as well.
Internet marketing “TAKES WORK and IS Work”!!! there is NO magic bullet/program/system that will make you filthy rich just by paying some Guru 1,000′s of dollars and you just sit back and watch the cash flow in….IT’S NOT GONNA HAPPEN!
Before you waste another dime on a worthless schemes please “READ THIS REPORT”; ‘MAYBE’ it will open your eyes to the truth.
I’ll be posting more about these two “HONEST” Marketers, (James B Allen and Kevin Riley), in my next few posts… Stay Tuned!
It never fails… Week after week — day after day I get hammered with sales from the GRUUUROO’s that “HAVE THE ANSWER” to make you filthy rich over night, if you just buy their super-duper widget.
“My ‘WIDGET’ will do everything to make you wealthy — make your morning coffee – and service you breakfast in bed… and it ‘ONLY’ 297/397/497/997/1997/ etc…etc.”
I even watched this so-called marketing woman yak for 90 minutes and then without batting an eye asked for $9,997.00 For ‘HER SYSTEM’!!!
But what really amazes me is that most after just two weeks go by:
A) It’s now selling on eBay for 5 bucks
B) The ‘system/technique’ doesn’t work any more
C) They NEVER mention it again.
D) They’re sell some ‘new’ widget!
I wonder how many actually ‘READ’ the disclaimers, (you know that fine print in faded out gray type so you either can’t read it or just ignore it.)
In short, it’s basically: “I lied; the only one who’s going to be making any money is me because you were stupid enough to buy this crap.”
I ran across one of the “FEW” honest guru’s articles about how he was at one of the hyped up seminars and the guy was there selling his super-widget email program and the people were fighting to throw their money on the table for a copy…. The Honest Guru ask the other … aahh? person? Why he did that? and didn’t he know that technique of emailing didn’t work any more??? He’s reply: “Sure! But a got a garage full of the crap and I got to get rid of it!”
Another GRUUROOO said he paid only $250 to get an ebook ‘AND’ the sales page written by a ghostwriter and made over a million bucks thru hype! (It wasn’t worth 10 bucks — OH Right! You never sell anything for even money, It’s always has to end in a “Seven” ($9.97))
Then you’ve got the “CLONE PEOPLE — THE COPY CATS”; They take whatever is ‘hot’ that week — buy a copy, (And many times it’s thru their own affiliate links), then ship it off to a freelancer to tare it apart and make their own cloned copy with less features. And again sell it at a hyped up price. (There’s one guy in the UK that’s done that several times. He made one cloned product, (totally buggy)… made 1.5 million and left everyone sitting while he went on holiday to India. About 3 to 4 months later he was at it again.)
OH! For all of you out there trying to make it in the marketing business — You ever get those emails that say: “Sell my widget and keep 100% of the money, Paid directly to your PayPal account!”
Well guess what?! You do that and you just built up that guy’s eMail List and not YOURS! Cause ‘HE/SHE’ gets the customer’s name and email address not you!
One guy lost hundreds of his customers, cause the GRUUROO he was promoting/selling for got all the names and email addresses of his list.
And that brings up another point that ‘piss me off’ — You’ve PAID for the product, BUT you can’t have it until you give them your name and email address…. in a sense hold something you’ve already paid for for ransom. If You don’t put the info in there; you can’t download the product even thou you’ve paid for it!
YES! There are still a few good/honest marketers out there, but they are dam hard to find.
Well the brain dead 9,000 pound eBay gorilla does it again.
First they killed off all sales of eBooks and downloadable materials in regular auctions and told the sellers that they had to use their ‘eBay Classified Ads’ feature to sell their digital products.
Their (eBay), claim is that it would be cheaper for the seller and that for the small fee of just 10 bucks for an entire month, they could sell as many products without any limits, (as in an auction you had to put in how many items where available), and they would not have the cost of the “Auction Listings and Final Value fees”.
Well now, That’s all fine and good, until they just ‘Blind Sided’ the seller AGAIN with the new restrictions for the Classified Ads.
You CAN NOT have a “Buy it Now” button in your ad.
You CAN NOT have a link to your website to buy your product.
You CAN NOT have an opt-in box.
SO!!!??? What good are those classifieds?!?!?
You have noway of closing the sale.
You can’t get them to your website.
You can’t get their contact info.
SO! What am I (The Sellers), paying for!?!?!?!
OH YEAH!!! TO PUT MILLIONS MORE INTO EBAY’S WALLET AND REMOVE IT FROM THE SELLERS WALLET!!!
It sure makes me want to go right out and place dozens of worthless ads on eBay!!!
!!!!NOT!!!!
PS: If you want to read about this on eBay have fun trying to find it — It’s buried (Hidden), deep inside eBay’s Workshop posts by ‘Trust and Safety’.
