Many are claiming to be self made ‘GURUS’ earning thousands of dollars, showing you some morphed photographs of their dream life style or some sneaky fake proof of their false income. So that you think it really happens.

Some of these so called ‘GURUS’ many a times confuses you by calling other invisible individuals as ‘GURUS’ and blame them so to get your attention and trust to them. All these are Internet marketing business selling tactics to scam you.

These people invest a lot on the writing the sales letter. These Internet marketing business sales letters are made in such way that everyone new to the on-line business and Internet marketing when reads first, believe them to be the best opportunity or that is the secret they wanted to know. These unscrupulous people exactly want to en-cash people like you and me and most these are scams. Average marketer become the meat of their hamburgers.

A disturbing element which has surfaced recently in on-line Internet marketing is about formation of a ‘cartel’ of few people who already made substantial money on-line since several years. And each of these so called ‘GURUS’ recommends others product. Your name and email is getting traded in the market once you ‘opt in’ to get some free information or stuff.

Every now or then you hear about a new ‘secret’ formula emerging and you can make tons of money on-line sitting at your home comfort leaving your present job.

Make no mistake, that these ‘GURUS’ will ever share with you what actually they are doing to earn money from their Internet marketing business but only a way to scam you. It is always the same story in different package.
