Beware of fraudsters
You may be doing this with good intentions of helping fellow human beings to get some extra money. But, please be careful of fraudsters down the line. Please read below of a true incident that occurred in Sri Lanka just a week ago. The perpetrators of this fraud were two Indian nationals. They are Dominic George alias Daniel George and Rajkumar alias Rajshekar. If you want I can send you their pictures as well. The story goes as follows:- A company by the name of Seagull Softwares (Pvt) Ltd offered people US$40/- per month per slot if they paid US$65/- per slot as registration fee. The contract was for 15 months. The work was simple. You had to find the features, specifications and/or description of five products from five urls provided by the company. This 5 product finding page was known as a slot. It took only 10 minutes to do it provided you had an ADSL telephone line for high speed internet connection. People registered for multiples of slots. Anyone registering for 10 slots would get US$ 400 per month. They did pay as promised for 9 moths. Then all of a sudden the owners vanished from the scene leaving over five thousand people standard. During the month of October alone over 1000 persons had registered for an average of five slots. It is estimated that they swindled over US$ 1.0 Million! Therefore, be vigilant of easy money schemes, particularly if you are asked to part with any registration fee to begin with!
