Juice - Scam of the Decade or Opportunity of the Century
For those still in the dark, let me fill in the blanks for you. A new ISP service will be launched in October 2004 that will be offering its subscribers internet connections at speeds "Faster than Broadband". This service will be available worldwide and get this, you can now get a free connection just by submitting your name and email address. Among other things, JUICE: - Will work with any PC or Mac with 9600 kbps modem upwards. - Will work with any Internet connection including dial-up, - Requires no cabling, engineers and no need to alter your - Guarantees connection speeds 40 times faster than dial-up - Promises that you will never have to pay for this service For those who are not too technologically savvy, I guess you will ask "What's wrong with that? Sign me up!" Here is where the detractors of "JUICE" smell a SCAM - and I will excuse your outright laughter at these claims.
- You will NOT get another Spam email EVER, but if you do - You are guaranteed to get a minimum connection speed of 2MB - YOU will NEVER receive a virus or worm in your email inbox - JUICE will be able to block every porn and adult site on - JUICE can STOP your child from chatting to people who Amazingly, this company promises to pay you £27 GBP for every person who you introduce to this service and they are accepting 80 million free subscribers by October 2004. They will also pay each affiliate £1.79 GBP for each person their downline introduces for ten levels down. Assuming they meet their target and my math is correct, that is in excess of £ 2 billion payment even before the product is launched!. Scam, or the opportunity of the century? You can decide for yourself by visiting these two websites for more details. The first promotes Juice while the second expresses opinion of its detractors. http://www.juiceboosted.com/index.php?RequestId=2&Id=qky5uxt http://www.broadbandreports.com/shownews/51529 If you find this opportunity too tempting to ignore you may wish to take the precaution of not providing Email addresses you have used to set up your Paypal, Stormpay or other secure transaction account. As one MLMer promoting JUICE points out, if you take the right precautions you can only be scammed out of your email address. His advice for the ultra-cautious, open a throwaway email account.
