Paid to Surf the Web
There are many sites that will pay you for practically anything that you do online, including reading email, visiting sites, searching, chatting, playing games and even listening to the radio.
I guess you can make a couple of bucks from such programs but I don't think anybody has managed to make serious income from such programs.
Automated Marketing Systems
And then there are those marketing automated systems. Invariably they will start with what you already know - that internet marketing is hard work, that it isn't easy to succeed, and that it takes a lot of perseverance.
And they will tell you that most will eventually fail.
They will continue by claiming that after years of experimenting, they have come up with an automated system that does the recruiting, selling, marketing or whatever else needed. A system that guarantees your success.
All you have to do is to follow their system to the letter, and you are on your way to riches.
There are many variations on the above theme, too many to go into here. Generally, you will be asked to pay a one-time fee, or a monthly fee, or do some grunt work and you will get a reward that is ridiculously disproportionate to the work, or intelligence, or money that you put in.
If you are tempted, as I have been, ask yourself this question:
"If I did develop such a system, would I sell it at such a low price?"
or
"If I did develop such a system, would I be selling it at all???"
