So I finally got a decent idea... Just started testing, and it looks really good so far. My only problem is, I'm baiting people to fill out CPA offers...

And I feel really bad!

Like, what the fuck...

I mean, I'm not ripping anyone off, and the offers are free (do req. a CC, but first month is free, and it is a very very commonly used company/service), but they are filling them out in the hopes of getting what I "offer", which of course, doesn't exist.

I either picture my mom/grandma, or myself when I was at my lowest and I would do anything for a chance at something, or I picture one of my ex's getting their hopes up about something, like all those times I've watched poor girls get shattered because they go to a model tryout and are told "You are REALLY what we are looking for..." Just to get a call a week later saying "Yea, we want you. If you can pay the $5 grand, you're in!"

I am the kinda dude that can steal your car and not feel bad, or F your underage daughter at a party and never call her again...

But god... THIS really bothers me!

I know there is another thread about this, but, what do you guys do to deal with this?

The only reason I keep going is because I just think about what good the money can do if I do something big...

But damnit, these people get to me.

And as someone else said on here in another thread, I can't bring myself to reading emails. I see them, I copy the address, paste a reply in a new msg, and then delete the original.

lol
 


1) I don't smoke weed anymore. Haven't in 8 years, and I could never bring myself to smoke anymore.
2) Drug tested by the state.
:)

lol
 
I hear you. I can't do those things, either. If this is bothering you this much, you probably should stop doing it. There are other great ways to make money online.
 
I would stop doing it, but with the way shit is these days, who can afford to pass up a money making opportunity? Don't get me wrong, I can't cut it out because of guilt, because if I wasn't making money online, I would probably be out selling drugs to 3 year olds. I'm grateful for the money, but the guilt just gets to me.

I try not to think about it, but I dunno... It still gets to me.

A girl emailed me and I broke my own rule and read it, and that's what brought me to talk about it. haha

And true, anyone on the net is bound to waste time and or money at one point or another, but I just hate taking advantage of people that are in need.

I wouldn't feel bad if I were taking advantage of rich people, lol!

That being said, I just found out that my grandma literally sits around all day and fills out offers!!! No shit... I was on the phone with my mom earlier and she was like
"I told grandma she needs to stop filling out these things on the internet, but she won't stop. She fills out EVERY contest thing she can find, and then she fills it out AGAIN with MY email address and name!! I caught her deleting my emails to try and hide it!"

hahaha

Gotta love grandma. Time to send her a bunch of cpa offers. If she's gonna fill out 10+ a day, might as well be my offers, so I can send her a bit of cash back!
lol

Know where you're at mate. If I was you I'd look at other ways of making money. Promote real products instead.

There's definitely more cash to be made the less ethical you are, but what's the point making loads of cash but feeling shitty about how you make it?

In a weird fucked up way I both despise and envy those who don't have this problem and are happy to rip people off.
 
Lazy is right, i only promote physical products and have never felt bad about it. There is no shady areas whereby you are promising anything and no scam hype attached to it. But if you can get over the guilt Phre just do it, if you don't someone else will, thats one way to look at it. If these people are the type to give their details and cc numbers out, then hell it might as be your offers!

What market are you in?
 
Ajay - Credit. But, I am using BH to trick people into my offers. Or, not really trick, but bait... Basically I found an entire niche of people that are completely untapped, and so I "give them exactly what they want", but they have to complete my credit offer first, of course, they need to do it so I can see if they qualify.

When I say "give them exactly what they want", I mean "pretend to give them exactly what they want".

I have figured out 4 different ways to push the same offer, the same way, to different markets.

I JUST figured this out like 2 days ago, and am still practically just testing waters, but so far it looks good, especially for my first REAL shot at something.

pat J - That's actually a good answer. lol
 
I didn't feel like starting a new thread to complain about this, so I'll post it here so I can get it off my chest as well.

I want to beat my roommates dog to death.

Mhm. Animal Abuse.

That little motherfucker barks, and barks, and barks, and barks, and barks, and barks, and barks, and barks, and barks, and barks, and barks, and... You get it.

Right outside my window.

He was barking before the sun came up this morning. Come 5:45 am, its a full grown Boxer barking 5 feet away from my head outside my window.

I truly, honestly, want to kill the dog. And not slowly either...

Maybe I could leave out some prescription meds or something... Rub them on some raw meat?

haha

God I hate this fucker. I can't explain how many times I've gotten 2-3 hours of sleep night after night because of this dog.

I want to kick it in the throat.

Thanks for listening.

Dog like that should've been crated, IMO. Boxers develop bad barking habits when they're left outside all hours. If it hasn't been fixed yet that can help, but if it isn't your dog not a whole lot you can do other than investing in earplugs.

Not as bad of a situation, but in the last place I lived I was across the alley from these jackasses that left their dogs out all night. They weren't bad about barking unless you walked by their yard, but every fucking morning one of them let out this high pitch whine to be let inside. And of course, they'd let it go on for an hour before doing anything about it.

One of many exciting reasons I got out of that hole.
