I’m in a foul mood today. Spammer beware.

Received an email from someone with the name F. Balousha from ContactThem. Actually the email was in my spam folder. It goes something like this.
Hi,We’ve seen your website at http://slowcatchupkuan.blogspot.com/2008/01/******
and we love it!We see that your traffic rank is ******
With that kind of traffic, we will pay you up to $4,800/month
to advertise our links on your website.

Sincerely,F. Balousha
The ContactThem Network
My eyes almost popped out when i saw the $4.8k. That’s like a lot of money. I mean it’s really way too much money for just an advertisement on my low traffic blog right? I don’t even get ads from Nuffnang anymore coz of my low traffic. *bummer! Sounds fishy but they got my rank and blog url correct, so i decided to check it out.
The man behind ContactThem; Stephan Ducharme *suppose to be a known marketer but i never heard of him lar so i don’t know lar, had created a system or program (whichever you like to call it), which promises too find leads. It’s similar to MLM actually. Every member will get a software that will help them find leads or contacts. So, the idea is to get the contacts to subscribe to ContactThem service and you’ll get paid a commission for the subscription. In other words, you spam your contacts with email.
Read the * disclaimer at the bottom of ContactThem page:
*These figures of earnings are examples to help you understand the earning potential – You can make more or less. There are no guarantees of income. *You are NOT paid per click, per impressions or for the period of time our banner is exposed on your website; you are paid per sale generated. You receive a sales commission when members join our paid membership upon your referral or your sub-affiliates’. Recurring monthly commissions are subject to members’ renewals. By default, 2 levels of commissions are paid; to access levels 3 to 10, you need to meet each level qualifications. Please take time to consult the qualifications for each level inside the affiliate area that explains everything in details.
So yes, they promise payment UP TO $4.8k alright. That is if you pulled your weight and remember, this is not a proposition to advertise on your website but actually an affiliate/MLM program.
Just so you’d know what you are getting into.
