Default NEWBIE!!! I'm not spamming, just asking advice

I recently received the following word document from a mate who assured me it's all above board, however I've been scammed more times than I'd like to remember and was wondering if any of you have come across this and/or would dismiss it as garbage or worth it for the £6 cost. I mean, they're not asking for thousands and it doesn't reek of pyramid type schemes, but before I go in for it I'd like to hear some advice if thats possible. I am sorry if I've posted this in the wrong section. Thanks for your time. Ryan

Generally, if I don't recognize something I ignore it. But that's just me.

Scam.

Idiots like you think it's great .. send £6 ... a thousand more idiots like yourself send in £6 and before you know it the creator has a tidy sum of cash.



Might try it sometime actually.

You wanna buy a mouldy potato for £30?

If you plant it you'll double your potatos ... no rly.

Please don't defile the name of Anfield by using it as your name and then posting this absolute bile. Anything that tells you that you will get rich by doing nothing is a scam if it wasn't a scam then why don't you do what they were going to do with your money yourself then you know you will make the money.

Be careful of anything like that. If you have the slightest suspicion, leave it alone.

I don't know what link that is, but as the advice says, leave it alone. It can be a simple scam, or a way to hack you. Not to mention the thousands of possibilities for spyware and viruses.

Nah go for it mate
i sent my credit card number to some bloke in Nigeria
so he could send me some money i've inherited

In case you don't realise i'm taking the piss
it sounds dodgy, it looks dodgy, it's dodgy.

Maybe i'm just being paranoid too but it also sounds like your trying to advertise it.

Apologys if you're not.

Thanks for all the advice, it makes perfect sense to be sceptical. I am and have since decided I won't be bothering with it. Someone asked what the link was, its a rapid share link (for some reason you can't post those two words together on here??). Someone suggested I was advertising it, I wasn't, just asking for advice. A lot of people have got this word doc it seems so I was testing the water to see if anyone on here had given it a go and possibly been successful. As for the person who called me an idiot, go **** yourself. My personal life is in a mess, I can't work, I've got debts and a family to support so in desperation I have become quite susceptible to scams and have been ripped of a couple of times which will please you no end I'm sure.

Thanks again for the advice anyway
