It Depends on How Important Your Good Name Is To You

Over the years I have developed a habit not to talk about what I don’t know For A Fact.  I have a way of speaking and using the term; “I was Physically there…” when describing an event.

In this way, I am not the person who will spread lies and stories and repeat what I heard from any source.

I shop at a particular supermarket, where they are Very Nice To Me.  I don’t know if they will be very nice to you.  I know they are nice to me.

That is all I know.

During the past 7 years I have been on many writing sites.  And it never fails; the scams, the sites that don’t pay all their writers, the sites that go down without a warning, Always, ALWAYS have armies of people shrieking about how Great the Site is!

You’ll always find someone boasting about  about the worst scams on the ‘Net.  You’ll always find people trying to drag others onto the scam.

Some are paid to do it.  They are hired by the Owner to pimp for the site.  They will always post favourable comments, always attack those who complain, always reassure those who have not been paid;  “Oh you’ll be paid…you see the reason why the payments weren’t made…”  as if they sleep in the same bed as the owner.

As I read those ‘reassurances’ I am even more convinced the site is a scam.

A few years ago a chap was brought into a Scam by the Owner.  He was made a moderator and told whatever he needed to be told.   This Chap ran from one site to another touting how great the site was, attacking everyone who dared say a word against it.

This Chap put his name on the line for the site.

The sites was a Scam and went down, leaving all the users unpaid and everyone rounded on the Chap who ‘disappeared’.

I ran into him, (using another Nick) when he apologised to me for attacking me for telling the truth about the site.  It was a scam from start to end.

He posted:  “When I started I thought it was legit because the Owner assured me, gave me numbers, dates, everything.  I didn’t realise he was tricking me.  I didn’t know I was being used as a buffer so that people would attack me when they weren’t paid.  I feel so bad about bringing people into it.”

So there is this guy, who tossed his good name into the toilet, who can’t even use his name on a site for fear people will attack him for the scam.

Of course, most people don’t have any reputation to protect.  They’ll pimp for any site that gives them 10c and attack everyone who dares to say the site is a scam and doesn’t pay.

If you care about your reputation, you would never promote a site you don’t own.  Because you can never know for sure it it is legit.  And the fact you were paid, and 80% of the users weren’t should not ‘buy’ your good name.

    • You say rite that name has some special and leaves s good or bad effect on the listeners to your name. But there are a few who know the real power of name because name has some alphabets and each alphabet has its special power and wave.

      Think God is a name and Jesus Christ is name some day calculate power of these two names you will know the wonder of name power. So for as the name of the site concerns you say right that never promote the site that is not your own

      • If you had brought people into a Scam you would not be able to use that name again, because people will recall it was you who caused them to be ripped off.

    • maybe this is who we are, writing for writing sites. We are developed into this though sometimes we come to a site that is not paying but there are still some sites paying us. This is a good relationship for us. Good luck here in literacy base.

      • It is very obvious on the 'Net because people write they views; so the person who extolled Tinycents or Blogbourne can't say s/he never said this or brought people into the site.

        In RL I'll find people babbling away about what they don't know. They 'hear say' that this is that or she said/he said, and don't realise that they are risking their credibility.

    • Yes, there are many scammers on internet who cheat the people by different means and feel happiness in doing so belong to bastard families because good families children do so any wrong thin.

      They are considered something of a joke by most of the millions of people who receive scam emails in their inbox every day - but they only have to be believed by a tiny percentage of people.
      The numbers quickly add up, and the money which can be made by the online criminals is considerable.

      In recent years the scam campaigns have become more malicious, involving hijacking someone's PC or luring naive internet users into believing they have found love online with the aim of emptying their bank accounts.

      They would then send fake messages to buyers with instructions to make a payment to a bank account under their control.

      The other strategy they used was to take over the email account of a high-level executive and give instructions to transfer money into a bank account they controlled.

      The suspect and an accomplice, who was also arrested in the city, face charges including hacking, conspiracy and obtaining money under false pretences.

      • I was sitting next to a 'newbie' who went to click on a 'You Won' pop up, and grabbed his hand. If I hadn't been there...

        Many people don't know the dangers.
