Is Easy Tweet Profits a Scam on Twitter?

About a month ago I reported on Easy Google Profits, an online scam promising unreasonable returns on very little work. Now a new group has appeared on the scene. Calling themselves Easy Tweet Profits, this group looks to capitalize on the crowd that was missed by the Easy Google Profits scam.

What is Easy Tweet Profits?
Easy Tweet Profits is an ad that has been popping up recently asking for workers to start placing links on Twitter for money. This group promises up to $87 per hour for posting website links as tweets on Twitter.

The scam is simple: Internet viewers are tricked into signing up to receive a kit (at the cost of mere postage) in the mail that will show them the secrets of making money by posting links on Twitter. Similar to Google AdSense and similar pay-per-click programs, Easy Tweet Profits says that it raises money through advertisements placed on Twitter. There are many similar scams all over the Internet, and anyone seeing claims like the ones here should always be wary.

Is This a Scam or a Profitable Scheme?
Let me save you time, money, and heartache right now: Easy Tweet Profit is the same as Easy Google Profits, only it asks you to tweet the links rather than post them elsewhere. This scam looks to have been perpetrated by the exact same people responsible for the Easy Google Profits Scam. It sports the exact same advertising format as the Easy Google Profits Scam. They even share the same name format.

The truth is in the Terms and Conditions page which is located very far removed from the advertisements. In the Terms and Conditions, you will find that you are not signing up for an no-work-required or cheap way of making money. Rather, when you sign up for Easy Tweet Profits, you are signing up to have $47 pulled from your credit card over and over again, according to complaintsboard.com. The process of getting these payments to the scam stopped, as far as can be seen at the time of this writing, is nothing short of contacting your credit card company to stop the payments.

Beware of Easy Tweet Profits Scam
Please don't be snookered by the allure of quick, no-effort money. Nothing is free, and Easy Tweet Profits is no different. If you think that it is too good to be true, odds are that it probably is. You are likely not going to be able to tweet or Google your way to fame and fortune unless you are already famed and fortunate. Any site that tries to tell you that you can tweet your way to financial victory is probably a scam of the highest order.
