Zombies and internet marketers have a lot in common, both are based on brainless actions.
The Zombie virus spreads exponentially. A zombie bites a human and infects them with the virus. The infected humans bite more humans and infect them creating more zombies.
The internet marketer comes across a website promising easy riches for no effort. They join that site and then promote the site to others who join thus spreading a scam exponentially. In both cases this occurs because the brain is not being used.
Well as we know from numerous Zombie movies and TV shows, not all humans become Zombies, some survive. They survive because they have enough intelligence to recognize the zombies for what they are and then they shoot them in the head.
One less Zombie shambling around to bite you.
Internet Marketing has it’s own survivors. These are people who use their intellect to evaluate the scams. They see them for what they are and there are a lot of ‘Daryl Dixon’ types in the IM world, like Internet Scams Anonymous. They recognize these scams and expose them, that means that there should be one less scam out there to burn you right?
Unfortunately no. Just like in a world full of Zombies there’s always that one survivor who lacks the skills to survive and do something stupid. Same with IMers, there will always be the lazy, the greedy and the less than ethical out putting people at risk. It’s time to start using your own common sense and think about what you are doing. You are responsible for yourself.
Just like your best friend may not run fast enough to escape the Zombies, they may not have the presence of mind to check a program out before joining. It’s all about due diligence, no matter who much you trust the person showing that program to you.
