Anyone with a thread of common sense knows that these too good to be true promises are just what they state. They are too good to be true.

There are many websites and blogs dedicated to exposing these fraudulent business scams. Do a Google search for a few of the key phrases or the main concept about the opportunity. See what others have to say after they have paid for this supposed once in a lifetime chance to earn tons of money. Also, look for testimonials on third party objective websites.
