Spammers and Scammers may leave the building….
Real talk time…..
•There is no get rich scheme with network marketing else we’d all be millionaires by now. I know Ivan on Instagram is cute and he has an amazing way for you to get rich, but you need to say NO
•There are no instant lead funnels that will make any money for anyone but the person you are buying the leads from, and the people who sold them the system.. guess who it wont help in their business… hmmm I’m waiting on an answer here….
•Email processing is a scam. It just is.. don’t do it…
•If someone is not prepared to tell you what company they are with until you’ve gone through some super secret opt in that you’ve just given your 1st born for, you should probably walk away at ‘message me for details’.
•If you spam people’s FB page, Instagram feed, Google+ posts or Twitter with ‘heh do you want to make an extra $500 / month? – hit me up’ you will 1. never build a team and 2. be doing the same thing thing you are doing now with another company in a months time when this BS didn’t work out for you and you blame the company. Oh and I’d love to ‘Hit you up’ but not in the way you are looking for.
•If you add people to groups / events without asking don’t be surprised when they report you to FB and you end up in jail. Guess what? we all have nail wraps, mascara and jewelry reps on our friends lists.. why would we buy from you? It’s not rocket science.
•We just became ‘friends’ and you PM me your whole comp plan, this months offers and why I MUST join your team… we just met… I feel violated… and dirty… and now I’m going for a shower, but not before I un-friend and block you so you can’t hit up my friends list!
Lastly I want you to practice this every morning in your best British accent..
I will not fall for the codswallop, tosh, flannel, nonsense and clap trap I see everyday on social media. Instead I will work on relationship and friendship building and when I master these skills and teach my team the same we will all flourish.
Love you all (except the scammers and spammers)

Very funny, but true. I totally stay off of face book and most other things like that. I’m really out of the loop when it comes to all of the social media stuff.
this is so true there’s so many scammers and spammers all around the world
There is a scam going around where they call people and tell them they have a virus on their computers and they offer to clean it for you and when you accept and allow them access to your computer through remote assistance they steal any information stored on your computer and also when they are done they ask you to pay for the service with you credit card and clear you out. A lot of older people have fallen victim to this scam.
Thank you!
Very good advice here for all!
perfect article! 🙂

I have been scammed twice, the first I should of known better but the second was through a friend who was scammed by someone pretending to me her sister. Long story short, check out everything three or four times. Go with you gut!
Thank you for the great advice!! It is really helpful!

Great advice!! Also, if you have to pay someone (even $0.01), it’s a scam!!! You should NEVER have to pay anyone, in order to make money! Money will come to you when you work hard for it! You may be able to find some tips or tricks on different FREE websites, but always go with your gut! If it feels wrong…it probably is!!!
There are so many scammers and unethical people out there that it makes me sick.
I agree! Who hasn’t slipped into a scam once or twice, before learning that nothing is for free! I know that I have, in the past, fallen for the “get rich quick” scheme. I felt like such a fool afterwords! At least I figured it out, when the company asked for a second sum of money…after the “special” of “only $1 to join”!!! Now, I am very skeptical of any company…just in case!
Felt good to read your tips, there were quite a few I did not know. Thanks
