If you are a frequent Internet user you are in one moment or the other attempt to see what's all the buzz about the "make money online" opportunities which are popping up each day.

It seams literally a piece of a cake to cash in thousands each month, and this, as suggested by several Websites, only with a push of a button.

Who never have seen a Headline like "Make 144'560.- in 2 weeks like this former gas station worker" or "Get My Foolproof System And Make Money In Less Then 24 Hrs., All On Autopilot".

I must be insane to work 10 hours a day in front of my computer as Internet marketer, researching keywords, markets, consumers, competition, building websites, setting up email auto-responders and so on if there would be such a easy way to make money. Don't you think so ?

But after I have been scammed myself several times, I know for sure that there are only a handful good programs and products available.

A scam is :

A fraudulent system, impossible to deliver what is offered, or in other words a product which uses a not achievable promise.

Perhaps it sounds strange if I say this so clear, but a scam product is easy to recognize, they have a pattern.

First, scams are somehow focused on the make money segment. This market seams to have the most desperate Internet users.

Who don't like to make some extra money, hundreds even thousands with only a few hours of work ?

And the scam products, better their Websites deliver exactly what this group of people want to see. Make easy and fast money, earn astonishing values in a short time, and make that cash with purchasing a system - no or just a little work involved, cash with a push of a button.

Face it, all those sales letters who are made with such Headlines are a scam. They are made by high payed professionals which know exactly how the mind of their visitors work. Those sales letters are elaborated over days, some times weeks, and there exist several versions of the same website with tiny differences to test for a short time, and before the big launch, which sales copy converts best.

The rules to avoid such scams are :

- If an offer, any offer, sounds simply too good to be the truth, then it most probably is and you ain't get any value out of it. Easy money on Autopilot

- There is no "Make Money System" which works with a push of a button. This is simply a lie. The dream to get rich over night will simply not come trough. Internet Marketing is a business which involve work, hard work.

- If the sales letter need a lot of explanations what this miracle system will do for you, before you actually get to read something about what it is, or if the sales letter don't contain any information about what it is, then forget it.

- If you have to SEARCH to find the price for the product, then you should be worry. A serious product don't need to hide his price. An don't believe those ridiculous price tags like "only 19,90 for the next 200 clients". It is possible to limit clients over script's and I know several products who have limits, but NOT those make money Ebooks.

Ultimately i would like to recommend to research in Forums FIRST, about any product you might wish to buy, before you buy it. This will take just a little of your time and give you a good feedback. If 9 out or 10 Forum posts are against a purchase, you can be sure it's not worth it's money.

You can do this with a simple search over Google, entering the products name +review, or +scam, or +refund. Then check in the results if you get some forum posts as reference. Forum posts are hardly promotions as they will be blocked as spam. So they are more objective then Websites or Blogs.

You will find a lot of information to build yourself a picture about the product. But as well there you have to be objective and don't believe all you read. Some people are to fast attempt to call all what's available a scam, simply because they where not able to use it as they desired. That would not be considered a scam.

What you can do to protect yourself I already told you here. There is only one thing left from my point of view.

And this is telling you what is one of the best resource and definitely not a scam which you should consider, when you have the aim to run a online business. I'm not telling here "join this to make money online" because this resource is a "resource" and not a "push button solution".

And against other EBook offers, this is a membership with a full solution where you get all you need to understand how Internet Marketing works.
