Yeah. Most people have been scammed already, either in the internet or in real life. There are genuine ones and frauds out there but it is really hard to tell them apart. =(

Some HYIPs work though. I haven't been scammed by HYIPs as of yet. Most autosurf programs are fraud according to my own experience. Though there's one that I am really looking forward to. =)

I hate to admit it but yes I've been a victim of a scam. It was because of my own stupidity. I should have taken time and researched the offer but no I did it on the spur of the moment. What I got ended up being crap.

Yeah. Most scammers talk like angels when they are convincing you to join them. They say marvelous things that sounds too good to be true. But we tend to believe them anyway, so we get scammed. Be careful next time! =)

Thankfully I can answer this with a resounding no :-) I've never joined anything I had to pay for (unless I had been a free member first and fully researched it) I don't join things that sound too good to be true (they usually are) and even when I've bought things online through ebay etc they have always turned up within a few days with never a problem. Not sure whether it's just luck or not but I'm hoping it continues :-)
