I ask this question for this reason. An ex-colleague
of mine went through a bad patch financially last year due to Covid-19 and lost
his job. So he took to the Internet to try and find 'work from home' jobs on
YouTube. He told me he was spending anything up to eight hours a day constantly
visiting these websites - more of that in a minute - absorbing all the promises
and assertions that things like, 'Make $1,000 a day doing nothing!' So, I
questioned him further; did you actually get anywhere with it? Nope! Why? He
said that in many cases most of those YouTube videos and the accompanying
websites left him dazed and confused, baffled even.
I decided to start checking out these videos myself and
man did I learn something; in fact many things. You see you have all these guys
(and girls) - numpties as we would call them here in Scotland - who are like
sheep. They view other peoples' (numpties) YouTube videos and copy them. I mean
when I was doing my research I lost count of the number of times I came across
the following:
·
Make $500/day watching YouTube videos.
·
Automatic $5.00 by clicking adverts.
·
$6,590 on Google in 48 minutes.
·
Earn $300 a day typing names.
The list goes on . . .
So did I learn any lessons by exploring this online
tripe? Well, yes and no. Yes, in that I learned yet again why these scammers
take advantage of the dumb and the vulnerable. They are savvy enough to know
and lure idiots to their websites so they can sell them stuff. And no? In terms
of the negative - no - I got chatting to my ex-colleague again and I explained
that I still could not believe that these scammers have got nothing else to do
in life but to deceive and hoax their way to a living.
I could perhaps offer you the names of these people
but for legal reasons I shall not. I, as a perpetrator, in naming and shaming
these schmucks can in effect, here in the UK, be classified as a criminal
offence. So better be safe than sorry!
