Half of the "Make Money from Home" ads that Google delivers in the box above are marketing scams...and there isn't much we can do to stop them from appearing.
How's that for a clever scam..?
Clicking on nearly every Google ad in the box above that states "Don't fall prey to scams" "We have the Best Ways to make Money from home", and similar tracks, I found that at least half of them are cookie-cutter sites pushing the same 2 marketing scam sites;
One pushing membership in a Freelance Writers site, and the other selling membership in a Survey Workers site.
One ad after another...Link after link...and despite small changes in headlines or domain names, the front page is always the same:
Two links to their "Top Picks for Making Money from Home"...and always the same 2 scams.
Are you seeing the obvious con yet..?
The owners of these 2 scams have bought a stockpile of domains, all posing as research or referral sites recommending the 2 scams...to searchers and search engines, this lends a feeling of authenticity to the scams they're pushing.
