Ok, so today i did a little research into online data entry profit. I came accross a site called dataentrypro.com. This one I must say convinced me. Then out of curiousity I purchased it... I went through the "members only" section and checked out the 3step "step by step" guide. It turned out to be nothing like what was promised. Yes, it is true that you only pay once for the product but to actually use the information(nothing special about the information) you need to spend a fair amount more on domain registration and hosting via their "Joint venture" partners... the was no mention of this before buying their product. I feel strongly that they misrepresented and I must admit, I don't like being scammed.
I suppose I should have researched a bit more before buying out of curiousity. Just goes to show how important research is. That's the first and last time I fall for that scam... The funny thing is, I've never fallen for these scams before so what compelled me to fall for it this time even though I knew better. I knew that it was most probably a scam, but yet followed through anyway. So how many other people have fallen for this scam and how many have fallen for it more than once?

I think most of the money making things you see on here are scams. They all seems to want around $50 and offer money back guarantees if not completely satisfied. I'd try to get my money back if I were you- -

Yeah, I asked for my money back so it was refunded to my paypal account.. so now it just needs to be cleared by my bank and it'll be back in my bank account. I must say though, I've done a fair amount of research on the subject and the methods they propose can actually work but it's not quite as simple as they make out.. it involves a LOT of work before you even get started unless you already have a website that gets alot of traffic. Then all you need to do is place targeted ads for your affiliates and for every sale of an affiliate's product you make up to 75%... So is affiliate marketing a scam... not quite.. some are legit and Can actually earn you a good income and save you the time of doing all the research... And in all fairness to the people selling these ebooks and information packages, it is possible to make the amounts of money they say... but it's not as easy as they say. Some of them do misrepresent their products and it was on that basis that I asked for a refund... which was given... There was also other expenses involved other than the $50 that I paid and those expenses are only made apparant after you buy the information that is meant for members only. But to get that information you can join forums and read blogs...
