Now I&#8217;m reading on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.marketingpilgrim.com\/2009\/12\/google-sues-make-money-with-google-scams.html\">Marketing Pilgrim<\/a> that they&#8217;re finally<a href=\"http:\/\/googleblog.blogspot.com\/2009\/12\/fighting-fraud-online-taking-google.html\"> suing the scammers<\/a> for using the Google name.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s a kind of interesting situation since they don&#8217;t yet have the names for all of the defendants. That&#8217;s one of the challenges of the internet, of course. Scams thrive because they can be done anonymously.<\/p>\n<p>Google&#8217;s doing what they can. They&#8217;re permanently disabling associated AdWords accounts in general that provide a poor user experience. But it&#8217;s challenging because it&#8217;s so easy to pop up under a new name when you&#8217;re online.<\/p>\n<p>These are the names Google says to be aware of now:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Names to be wary of: Google Adwork, Google ATM, Google Biz Kit, Google Cash, Earn Google Cash Kit, Google Fortune, Google Marketing Kit, Google Profits, The Home Business Kit for Google, Google StartUp Kit, and Google Works.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>They know quite well that more names will appear; that&#8217;s the nature of this kind of scum.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s kind of a pity to see the name Google Cash up there, as there was also a legitimate product by that name, made by Chris Carpenter. But now the scammers have used it too.<\/p>\n<p>As always, remember that no product can guarantee you riches or any degree of success. If they&#8217;re making wild promises, just don&#8217;t believe it.<\/p>\n<p>There are products that can help you along the path to building a real business, but there are still a lot of factors that may keep you from succeeding, allow you to succeed beyond your wildest dreams, just let you earn a little extra spending cash or anything in between. It&#8217;s mostly up to you. The information just helps.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve posted in the past about the Google Money and related scams.
