let`s clean up the internet!!!

I only sign up to free sites, that way I don't lose my rent money if it is a scam, only some time.

Yes, I am afraid that that is a more and more frequent trick. All you have to do is to put '[xxxxprogram] scam' in the keywords and it shoots up your rating on the search engines. Then you just write a glowing review of the site you want to promote describing how genuine it is and people will flock to it (for long enough so that you can pocket a sizeable amount, anyway). There are, it has to be said, a number of people promoting genuine sites which use this trick, too. In fact, I think that they originated it! The problem is, of course, that a clever liar can make almost anything look very convincing on a web page. Not all those scans of PayPal payments as 'proof' are genuine! How would you know the difference? The Internet is a jungle. You are well advised to be wise to jungle lore and keep your machete and good leather boots handy. I hope that you didn't part with $300 in cash and that all you really lost was time.
