Keeping the Elderly Safe

I read an article about an elderly woman who was taken for a ride of nearly $200,000 which she spent on "taxes and insurance " to claim a sweepstakes prize she will never get. She was scammed into sending $100 bills hidden magazine pages to Costa Rica. Get more information on how to keep your loved ones safe by reading the full article at Aarp

Will You be the next Publishers Clearing House Winner?

Don't you just hate those sweepstakes; that claim you win a prize but in order to get that prize you have to pay a fee Well, this is also a scam. Ever so often, my mailbox gets flooded with mail from Publishers Clearing House Readers Digest. With these entries, these companies include sale circulars. They never neglect to remind prospective buyers that a purchase does not increase a person's chance of winning. They encourage playing for free but remind that they rather give their gifts to those who support them. This tells me that to stand a chance, I need to purchase something and so I buy just to win the $10 million which I never win. I don't know of anyone who won the sweepstakes. From now on, I put the Circulars in the trash without opening them. Too much work for nothing. First they hide the stamps necessary to enter the sweepstakes in the circulars. Postage is going up and the Shipping and Handling fees on products purchased from them are much too high.

How does one know which is the right business

I guess one does not know for sure which is the right one. Trying them all to find out is just futile. Everyday my mail box is filled with mail. Some body wants me to buy into their program. It's always the new best thing with lots of promises they cannot deliver.Yesterday, the mail man delivered the money book to my address. For responding within 7 days someone wants to charge me $299 for a manul and video that will teach how to trade commodity futures. Now, from what I know about commodities, one must have a margin account of at least $5000 but they don't tell you that. This little tidbit is very important. Let's say one buys the program and really studies it and put into action all the steps. Then that some one really wants to trade commodities and tries to open a real account only to find out that they must have some money in an account with the company they're trading unless they can trade it on their own. I know because I traded commodities before. The company I used one day called me and ask me if I would like to purchase 2 corn futures. At the time, they were trying to unload some of their bosses futures off me because they had some insider information that I was unware of. Being new and all in the market, I lost my money and never traded commodities again.

The Using Other People's Money Song

Many businesses will tell you that you can use other people's money to make money. This is true to some extent but what happens when it's the other way around? A Real Estate business wanted me to buy into their program and since I did not have the startup capital adviced me to get a credit card to purchase their program. Really, if one does not have the start up capital, why would one want to accumulate debt with no guarantee that the business is going to be a success? I did not do it but I spent hours at the court house looking up home mortgages trying to find notes and believe you me, it's a lot of work. It never paid off, but in the end I'm glad I did not go into debt to make somebody else rich.

Free ! Low Start-Up Cost!

Everybody wants to show me how to become a millionaire but first they have to take the little penny I have. How many times have you heard- ground floor opportunity, low start ups? There are these businesses where the start-up is low or free. Some of them will ask for a shipping and handling fee for thier product and after you give them the credit card number hit you with there's a monthly fee of $49.95 a month. Hello! people want to make money. That's why they are looking for the next big opportunity in the first place. The only way, I see one can make it, is to develop his or her idea, invent something, put their hobby to work for them or buy an existing business.
Lately, I've been receiving these emails from some people in the Phillipines, England and the good old US. These people all have one thing in common. They have money which they want to share with me. All I have to do is send them my information. Well, with all this identity theft going on how daft do these people think I am?
