Being Taken Advantage Of By A Guru

By Tim May


Ever felt taken advantage of by an internet marketing guru? I am sure you know what I am talking about. Every day there is someone on the internet telling you to quit your job and start an online business from home.

You often hear marketing scams that say, \"Quit your job and make twice that from home,\" and \"Be your own boss.\" You then decide to give it a try and go to the website listed, only to find out it is cluttered with the same mumbo jumbo as all the others. The page is extremely long, and the claims they make are outrageous. Especially the ones that say you can make $100,000 in 90 days or less.

Finally, they all claim to have the secret to making money on the internet and living a happier and richer life. They follow up with this by telling you to try their free DVD, which then only provides you what the web site just told you, and the DVD tells you to purchase their software or mentoring program. This is how most internet marketing gurus are ripping off people.

It amazes me that so many people fall for this. They are so caught up with the glamorous boats, cars and houses that they see nothing but dollar signs instead of what is obviously in front of them.... a scam.

You then buy a digital book, which only tells you to buy something else. That by doing this you are going to be ahead of the curve. They tell you that it is ok because you are just going make that money back in the first couple of sales.

So lets review the two types of scams. One, they get you to invest in an overpriced system by having you pay monthly fees, this makes them tons of money. Two, they sell you a book, which tells you to buy something else.

Meanwhile, the marketer makes all the money while you struggle to achieve this dream they feed you. They know what they are doing. They are all getting rich off of their internet market guru scams. Itas how they made their money in the first place. Practically crooks when you look at the outcome in the end.

It is a lose lose situation, unless you are the person behind the scam. You work day and night, to only find yourself not able to meet your bills, while the guru makes more and more money. You feel tricked and probably do not have another job to fall back on. Be careful when getting involved in these sort of offers.
