Here is the free advice that is offered to those seeking secret shopper jobs by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC):

“The truth is that it is unnecessary to pay money to anyone to get into the mystery shopper business. The shopping certification offered in advertising or unsolicited email is almost always worthless. A list of companies that hire mystery shoppers is available for free; and legitimate mystery shopper jobs are on the Internet for free. Consumers who try to get a refund from promoters of mystery shopping jobs usually are out of luck. Either the business doesn’t return the phone calls, or if it does, it’s to try another pitch.”

The Forwarding Plant: This plant (also known as the ‘forwarding-e-mail’) grows wild in the Internet jungle. It has been around a long time. Many have tried to eradicate it and yet it thrives. There are dozens of varieties.

The very idea of being able to make money, get paid for vacations or great merchandise by simply forwarding emails sounds very enticing to those who are not all that computer savvy. It sounds easy and it sound quick and it sounds like something that they already know how to do....forward.

The problem is that the technology doesn’t even exist for email tracking. Another tiny little problem is that nobody is going to pay you or anybody else for forwarding emails...it hasn’t happened...it isn’t happening...and it will NEVER happen.

Please take note....you will NOT receive:

Ø      Cash from Microsoft

Ø      Free Merchandise from Nike

Ø      Free clothing from Gap

Ø      $25 Gift Certificates from Abercrombie & Fitch, Old Navy, or Outback Steakhouse

Ø      Free cars from Honda

Ø      Free Cases of coke from Coca Cola

Ø      Or anything else

By forwarding emails! It isn’t going to happen! Let me tell you what you WILL get if you choose to pick this plant. You will get a lot of very unhappy recipients of forwarded email. Forward enough of these things and you could be facing an angry lynch mob made up of a few hundred of your nearest and dearest friends! J

The World Currency Plant: It seems that unless you were a couple of cans short of a six pack, this would be an obviously poisonous plant and one that you would avoid.

This is another of those plants that you usually first see when it sprouts up in your inbox as an unsolicited bulk email....do you see a pattern here? SPAM is always, always, ALWAYS offers and opportunities that are bogus and downright dangerous!
