Once a sucker, always a sucker

I skim through these discussions and so many people talk about how many times they've been scammed online, trying to make money. The sad thing is that they never seem to learn anything. They tell us how much money they've lost and then they ask for legitimate sites. They don't seem to notice that the majority of people here are either just like themselves--so desperate to make money, or so greedy, that they fall for any line that people lay on them. And most of the rest are just scammers or people out to get referrals for sites that they think are going to make them rich.

Now, to some extent, I know there are a lot of people who are like this, but not all. I know when I present something to someone, or with the site I have listed in my Profile, it is a legitimate site, and I am only offering a chance at something to look at and give it a shot. I know it is not always for everyone, and that is why I feel it is worthless to try to force someone to be there, and do something with it.
But I know of a couple of people who are members, or have been active members in the Past, that are just out there looking for Referals, and then never seem to care or help them once they get them. To me, this is just Greed, and I hope one day they see how they are only hurting themselves in the process.

I agree with you. Some of these people dont seem to realize that they are just setting themselves up to be scammed again. The best idea is to NOT pay for anything. That way even if the sites turns out not to pay or whatever you wont have lost any money.
