Online Frauds and What to Do About Them

Online hoaxes and other frauds waste time, cause confusion, anguish and other mayhem. My aunt meant well, but didn't know Ashley Flores from Philadelphia who was 13 is an urban legend. Other frauds include the emails you get for jobs cashing checks from Lithuania or Yugoslavia or what not and once I emailed someone who said they would sell me the secret to making money, the chance to buy the fountain of youth. And you know what, that became a scam too. The point is there are legal ways to make a buck, help people and there are scams, frauds and hucksters. Next time you hear of an offer or a cause check on the internet first.

The best thing is to be grateful for what you got so you don't fall prey to these hucksters. It can cause pain and suffering and hurt your credibility. Watch out for MLM and other get rich schemes. Usually you have to be in early to see a profit. And unless there's a good product to sell, start your own MLM. All you need is an idea and friends who want some money.

It's a shame that its all around these frauds, you don't know who to turn to. The guy who doesn't care about you but wants to sleep with you, no strings attached, the get rich schemes. The use em and lose em schemes. Life is about love and helping people. Not trashing the world to get somewhere quick.

If you think you don't matter until you make millions of dollars, you're wrong. And unless you value yourself and others you will be stuck in negative thinking and worry. You will fall prey to these hucksters and cheats. You will feel a loss in hope for humanity. Here are a list of things you can do that will make you feel good without spending a lot.
