Underground Cash Secret Scam

Underground cash secret is a scam.  Stay well clear.

It is run by a guy with the name Michael Vincent.  I’ve already mentioned this scam on a previous post in passing but thought it needed it’s own post.

I’ve seen the phoney reviews but I’ve also come across the many victims of the underground cash secret program.

Latest figures from Quantcast show approx 137, ooo visitors a month to the site.  That is already the lower end of the scale.  In November 2008 that figure was more like 500,000 a month.  Yes half a million visitors.  Even if you assume a conversion rate of 1%, that means thousands of people have paid for this.  Paid and got scammed.

So what’s the problem?
First of all, they sell you the product itself, then after wards, they try to sell you some more things which they say you need for you to make money.  If you follow me.  When you try to click away, they reduce the price etc etc.  I’m not going into the details as you can see the experiences of other people on forums etc.

Ok, fair enough, they do some “back door” selling, so whats so bad about that?

Here comes the real scam.  They actually call people up after wards!

Yes they call you up and sweet talk you or hard sell (however you want to put it) and promise you they will help you set up your system and that they will even pay to help you set the system up………..

Of course then all they need is to take your credit card details to take a “deposit”.  There has been an incident lately of a guy who just lost $5000 to them.  No joke.  It’s been reported by a guy from Singapore.  He hasn’t been able to get his money back or contact with anyone.

Can you believe these kind of things are still happening in this day and age.

If someone calls you up promising to show you how you can make money, run a mile.  There is no such thing as a free lunch.

Stay safe, learn how to avoid the scams.

Legitimatebusinessreviews.com scam

Today I reseached legitimatebusinessreviews.com and checked my scam o meter.

Again, this is another make money online review site with some clever webcopy to tell people not to buy $97 or $49 ebooks etc.

It goes on to recommend some affiliate programs for you to buy.

This in itself does not make legitimatebusinessreviews.com a scam but the problem here is that the first program it promotes is a program called “Underground Cash Secrets” by Michael Vincent.

I looked into this program and apart from the phoney review sites made by affiliates, I have had nothing but bad news about this.

First of all, it appears that if you want to get a refund (like it promises on the site), you will not be able to get one - or at least it would be very very difficult and troublesome.

Secondly, it doesn’t seem to deliver what it says it does and infact many people have reported that they just try to sell you more stuff in order for you to learn how to make money!

Back to the main point.

How can you trust any kind of review site?  Who can you trust?  Maybe it’s an impossible question to answer but here are some tips to keep you sharp:

1)  If a review site is being promoted using PPC (pay per click) on google, msn, yahoo or any other search engine.  It means the webmaster is paying for you to click on the site.  Why are they paying for you to click?  Any chance that they are hoping they will make their money back by selling you something?  Think about it.  It’s not rocket science right?

2)  Most webcopy is designed to appeal to emotions.  The writer has done so in a way to persuade you to something.  In this case, it is to lead you to buy “Underground cash secrets” or some other recommended products.

For those of you who are smart enough to have researched legitimatebusinessreviews.com before spending more money, well done, give yourself a pat on the back.
