Autosurfs being investigated by the FBI
Well, it seems like the feds have fiiinaalllllyyy... caught up (or are trying to catch up) with these blood-sucking ponzis. After years and years of being around, and even after years and years of CLEARLY advertising their so called business.... finally... the FBI are doing something about it.
I just came across an article, stating that investigations are now underway for websites that're giving huge payouts to members for simply watching ads on their automatic rotators.
I'm talking about Autosurfs here (12DailyPro, Studio Traffic, Extrix Surf, and GOD KNOWS WHAT'S MORE OUT THERE).... For those of you who are in the blue of what these 'companies' offer.... Autosurfs will actually PAY you for viewing a slideshow of advertisements. Each slide (on their browser) will be displayed for (say) 20seconds... and you get paid for it :) Basically it's like that. But to get the whole picture... you might wanna do some investigation yourself. BUT DONT JOIN THEM! EVEN FOR FREEE DONT JOIN THEM! These blood suckers will have a way to entice you!!! So stray clear!
Anywayz....
If you really2 look at it again and again and again.... they really dont have a business so to speak. They'd (Autosurfs) claim that the businness op. that they're offering is totally new and revolutionary becuz its based on the INTERNET BOOM!!!! No need to work hard anymore for cash. With the Internet, you got millions and millions of people tuned in everyday! And... out of those millions (if not billions), there's sure a buck or two to make from each of them?
Well... while the volume of Internet traffic is indeed huge... the basic way of doing BUSINESS still remains. You gotta work... and need a solid business plan. PERIOD! If you wanna do an online business? GO ahead... YES! It can make you rich faster. It can bring in the big bucks. BUT! To bring in the big bucks requires effort! Huge effort. You can't just build a website and expect people to buy from you!
Autosurfs say that... people will view their ads... BULL!!!! No one views ads on autosurfs. Or at least not seriously. They tend to advertise OTHER Autosurfs. It's like someone once said in an Internet forum:
Ok ok. I think I'm straying away from the topic a bit here. I am supposed to be talking about the FBI finally getting to grips with reality, and are now doing something about these ponzis. :P
Anyway... It's a good thing that they're starting the investigations. But quite a few people (in the thousands I guess?) have already been conned. Day after day after day, you can see people get sucked into the world of quick and easy richess, only to be burnt in the end :( Sad story... but for some, it's a learning experience.
For others... they treat it as a game... They know these Autosurfs are just the talk of the day.... They go in, rake in as much $$$ as possible... and then leave the naive-instant-millionaire-wannabes to dry :( Sad .... but true.
Anywayz, the report I talked about is here...

"Autosurfs are like two McDonalds located opposite of each other. The first one is advertising the dangerous crap it's selling to the other... while the other one is doing the same thing! That, in a whole... is Autosurfs!"
