Let’s just say it upfront:
Every website, promising easy income through running a website with Google ads, is a scam!
Go with the old saying, “If it sounds too good to be true, it probably isn’t.”
The harsh reality is, the time when you could make good money through Google ads is over! Still, there are a myriad of websites with slogans like “Work At Home Mom Makes $6,397/Month Part-Time.” If it was true at all, why isn’t everybody doing it? Because it’s a scam! The only ones to create a tremendous income are the scammers!
Well, to show just one example, here is an excerpt/copy of the “Massachusetts Job Report” by “Online 6 News” (Note: The Massachusetts Job Report as well as Online 6 News are a fake.) It’s the “Massachusetts” report, because that’s where I live. The scammers run programs that can determine from where you log in (They look at your IP address) and change the content accordingly.
Work At Home Mom Makes $6,397/Month Part-Time
Online News 6 Investigates Google Work at Home Programs…
Have You Ever Thought About Working Online?
Kelly Richards of Conway, MA never thought she would have a job working at home until one day she filled out a simple form online. Before she knew it, she discovered her secret to beating the recession, and being able to provide for her family while at home with her two children.
I read Kelly’s blog last month and decided to feature her story in our local job report. In our phone interview she she told me her amazing story. “I actually make about $5,000-$7,000 a month using Google. It is enough to comfortably replace my old jobs income, especially considering I only work about 10-15 hours a week from home.
Working with Google has been a financial windfall for Kelly, who struggled for months to find a decent job during the struggling economy. “I lost my job shortly after the recession hit, I needed reliable income, I was not interested in the “get rich quick” scams you see all over the internet. Those are all pyramid scams or stuff where you have to sell to your friends and family. I just needed a legitimate way to earn a living for me and my family. The best part of working online is that I am always home with the kids, I save a lot of money.”
I asked her about how she started her remarkable journey. “It was pretty easy, I filled out a short form and applied for a work at home kit. There is a small shipping and handling fee, its not really free but it was under $5. I got the Kit and within four weeks I was making over $5,000 a month. It’s really simple, I am not a computer whiz, but I can use the internet. I post links that are given to me, I don’t even have to sell anything and nobody has to buy anything. They are constantly recruiting people to post links, you should try it.”
Online giant Google, worth over 100 billion dollars is the most used search engine and internet market place. Google is the #1 internet site in the world, over 50 percent of all internet traffic flows through them everyday. It’s a great company and they have been helping people work at home for over 10 years. Why not get in with the internets best and biggest company? there are plenty of scams on the internet claiming you can make $50,000 a month, but that is exactly what they are scams. From my conversation with Kelly, “I am making a good salary from home, which is amazing, under a year ago I was jobless in a horrible economy. I thank god every day that I filled out that form.”
Quickly, Kelly Richards was able to use the simple Google Profit Library kit with the Google Home Income kit to make it out of the recession.
Kelly had never shared her story before, and with her permission, we are putting it public.
Note: The grammatical errors/flaws are not mine. This was a simple copy and paste. Needless to say that a professional Online report would not be as flawed as this one. Also, to my knowledge, Google does not hire people to put hyperlinks on their blogs.
While these types of fraudulent jobs don’t really exist, there are plenty of jobs arising from online medical billing and coding courses.
How Can I Report Mass-Marketing Fraud?
If you have a complaint about any type of Internet crime, you can file an online complaint with the Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3). The IC3 is a joint project of the FBI and the National White Collar Crime Center (NW3C). The IC3′s key functions for federal, state, and local law enforcement agencies will be (1) receiving online complaints, (2) analyzing them to identify particular schemes and general crime trends in Internet fraud, and (3) compiling and referring potential Internet fraud schemes to law enforcement. In addition to FBI and NW3C personnel, the IC3 will include agents and analysts detailed from other law enforcement agencies.
If you have a complaint about any type of consumer fraud, including any type of mass-marketing fraud, you can file a complaint through a toll-free Consumer Help Line, 1-877-FTC-HELP (1-877-382-4357) or online with the Federal Trade Commission

AMERICAN MALE PROSTITUTE
A Novel by Wilfried F. Voss
How I (Almost) Got A Book Deal Through Sex, Lies, And Deceit
Today’s publishing world is divided into two principle sections. First, there is the exclusive pool of traditional publishers, and, second, the help-yourself shark tank represented by the so-called vanity publishers.
Vanity publishers have a significant edge over traditional publishers in regards to brutality, business sense, and profitability. They ruthlessly pursue the infinite supply of aspiring writers who, in turn, are rejected by traditional publishers or literary agents. Ironically, in the world of traditional publishing, authors are rejected not necessarily due to lack of talent. Vanity publishers accept everybody and everything. No questions asked. Just pay your bill, but don’t come crying to them when you can’t sell a copy of your book.
The question remains, what does it take these days to get a book deal with a traditional publisher? What do you do when, hypothetically, you are running out of time and mere talent is not the be-all and end-all?
Stuart Martin Berry has found the answer: If you can’t impress them with your talent, baffle them with your bull-shit. [Read more, including an excerpt]

Kelly seems to be doing a lot of traveling.
Kelly lives everywhere apparently. I just found her and she lives in Anaheim! Yea right. The comments were closed and pretty up to date which should be another sign. One person claims they got the program for 1 dollar shipping.
Of course this could be her and check out the company name!
Kelly Richards, President

Imagine, Kelly Richards has moved again. Now she is at West Bridgewater, MA, making the same 6,397 monthly and pictured getting off the same boat with her little girl. This is all the same SCAM engineered by heartless people preying on the needy to further sink them into the hole. I first came across Kelly Richards claiming riches by posting Google links on the net. Stay Away from these sharks.
She also lives in Reidsville, GA.
Kelly Richards is on the move again!!!!! I found her in a small town called Terryville, CT!!!!!! With the same little girl walking off the same gang plank!!!! You would think with all her money she would choose a more appealing photo!!!!
Kelly Richards is now (January 30, 2010) in High Point, NC.
I almost fell for it!. im in such a need and want for work!!
She has moved to Rome GA, today. Just found her getting off the same boat. Still making the same amount of money.
Good to find that there are blog proprietors that worry about their blogs and not compose all kind of inutile stuff but rather try to maintain it fresh and notable for the interest of their subscribers. You’ve done a good job and i thank you for that and also for not shocking me with inutile garbage and spam.Thank You
Shes in Brattleboro Vermont today. What a scam!!!!
She is now in West Columbia South carolina, same story same picture, where is she going next, just another SCAM I guess

Hi, first I want to say awesome blog. I don’t always agree with your blogposts but it’s always a nice read.
Keep up the good work.
You put together a great point with what you claimed. A great number of people have to read your article so they can have a much better point of view about this subject. It was awesome of you to provide great details and supporting reasons. After reading this, I know my mind is extremely clear about the subject. Continue the fantastic work!
Hello, did anyone buy the kit? If so what did you get and was the credit card charge 2.97 as promised or is that a scam as well?
BEWARE!!!!
This kit actually costs 2.97 and 139.95 conveniently hiden under terms and conditions link and it will take hours to get charges removed.
She lives in south dakota too. Same pic and everything. Dad said I should get this kit and use it. Ya, right, looks real legit to me(HAHA)
Such a scam, we (my father and I) saw this ad and started filling out the form. Luckily, my father is a lawyer and would not proceed without reading all terms and conditions. Turns out there is a hidden $140.00 charge. Also, stop being silly, Kelly lives in Los Angeles…Says so right here in the ad on my computer
@Tim: Don’t be silly… making money through your web site is extremely difficult. Have a look at my book at http://www.frogenyozurt.com/2010/02/a-no-nonsense-guide-to-a-professional-blog/. The book contains some tips on how to make money through you blog, but I also warn to understand this as a “path to riches.” You can make some money through your blog or web site, but it will never make you a living, unless you spend 25 hours a day to extend and promote your web site (you accomplish the 25 hours by skipping lunch time).
It seems all of you are quick to put this down because of the claims you are making about the observances in location and photos;…………..but what & who I want to hear from is someone who has actually done this “placing-links-thing”! none of you have;……….OBVIOUSLY. what I want to know is even if this does cost a pretty penny, has anyone actually tried it? maybe you or I wouldn’t make a whopping unrealistic $7000.00 a month, but has anyone out there learned to place links with this kit or any other and made maybe $300.00 a month instead? do these so called “Google Checks” actually exist? and has anyone out there actually received one for even $25.00!? who says this method or kit does not work just because you guys have a beef with the photos and location? Not defending it, just want to know if this method really works.
Helene, first of all, it is a good thing we didn’t try it! Otherwise we would have lost money like many before us. You obviously did some research on the topic, and I am sure you found other web sites – especially consumer forums – where clients of the Google Profit Library reported about their experience. If you don’t smell a fraud here, you should sign up with the Google Profit Library and make that experience first-hand. If only you would read my article series on this blog, you would find enough evidence of fraud. And to answer your question, yes, you can create income through your web site using real Google ads, provided your web site contains of several thousands of pages with valuable content. If you want more, detailed information log on to http://www.myprofessionalblog.com.
I admit it was disappointing to realize, that this was a scam, however I guess the old saying “If it sounds to good to be true it probably is” came to mind, which is why I began to check the news sites that were listed as having aired this story. Oh, and by the way on my article she lives in Cleveland, Ohio.
owning a couple of blogs and websites and monetizing them with adsense or adbrite is a good way to Work at home. you can also answer paid surveys but most of them are scam sites.
I just got duped also. In Sedona AZ.
I figured it out a few minutes later but they already took out 140.00
saw her in AMERICAN FORK my home town as well same kid same cheeezy smile and large sunglasses
Wow, thanks to all of you, I almost signed up!! Yeah, I know, what a dummy!! Does anyone out there know of a way to just make some extra money at home at all that is not a scam or does not cost a small fortune up front?
Hi Janice, there is no guaranteed path to riches. Sorry. However, if you are willing to put in some work, making a few bucks per month in the beginning, and maybe a little more more after a year or two, look at http://www.myprofessionalblog.com.
Wow she sure moves fast. Now she is in Phoenix AZ. Like the old saying. Sounded to good to be true so I checked it out and thanks to all of your input, my suspicions are right.
Wow! Wish I had seen this 10 days ago. She lived in Cincinnati Ohio for me. I saw the same add same picture not about Google though. Same add sent me to Internet Cash Machine who is telling me to sell things and it is not just about posting links. Of course this is after they charged my card $140 because I did not cancel in 3 days. They state that I received an email which was in my junk mail and will not refund my money! Found another add same picture claiming even more money per month but connects to a different company now. Good luck to all.
Tell me about it. they didn’t even give me 3 days.As soon as I filled out one form My account posted a $140 charge.Now I have to fill out fraud forms at my bank and they’ve canceled my card.Amazing how you will do stupid things when you’ve been out of work for months and they’re fixing to take your house.God help us all.
It is really surprising that people fall for this. I have seen this before, same name but different cities, I am from a small town and pretty well know everyone and to my disbelief she lives in my home town also! Don’t fall for a scam like this.
I can add that Kelly ALSO lives in my village, Catskill NY, as well as neighboring Cairo NY.
Her miraculous omnipresence is accompanied advertorially speaking by warm comments that miraculously
update with successive “reports.”

Working online provides great jobs in stale marketWork At Home Mom Makes $6,397/Month Part-Time
Online News 6 Investigates Online Work at Home Programs…
Have You Ever Thought About Working Online?
Kelly Richards of Fort Worth, TX never thought she would have a job working at home until one day she filled out a simple form online. Before she knew it, she discovered her secret to beating the recession, and being able to provide for her family while at home with her two children.
I read Kelly’s blog last month and decided to feature her story in our local job report.

TAKE A LOOL AT WHERE SHE NOW. FORT WORTH,TEXAS!!!
She’s here in Tampa, FL too. Oh Lord!!!! I would like to make Facebook Page warning people about it. Can they sue me for that? Thanx in Advance…
Hi Alba, Go ahead with that facebook page! In the very unlikely case that they contact you, you can still remove the page. I get a great number of responses on this topic, and I didn’t hold back with my comments. After all, we are protected by the freedom of speech act. Just make always sure you mention that the page reflects your very personal opinion. – Wilfried
Why doesnt President Obama pass a law so people cant scam others. This lady needs to look in the mirror and see what shes doing, unless she works for the gov. HAHA
yip apparently she lives 5 minutes from me in Hauula, HI
For all you concerned bloggers Kelly is doing fine. Shockingly, it seems she has moved to my area in WA state. I never took her for a northwesterner. I hope she likes it here and decides to stick around. It can’t be good for her child to move so frequently. How is the little girl ever to make friends and develop lasting relationships with only her restless mother for company? Don’t get me wrong, I’m sure Kelly is a nice lady and I will give her the benefit of the doubt that she will decide to stick around and become an active member of my humble community. God bless you Kelly.
Kelly now lives in Houston, TX, same as I. WHAT A SCAM, DO NOT FALL FOR THIS.
She’s on the move to the great South. Now residing in Birmingham, Al. Hey, wait a minute, I saw that same boat she’s getting off of last weekend at the creek! What’s going on??
LOL!! The email I got says Kelly Richards of Moreno Valley, Ca and this one says of Conway, MA! If you’re gonna make a scam atleast give your lie together!! hahahaha.
Thanks for all the info. I almost signed up too but I live in a tiny town named Coquille Oregon. That is where it said Kelly lived. Not true since I know everyone in town, LOL!!!
I would love to find a legitimate work-at-home biz that would generate even minimum wage for me. But so far, only scams or huge “buy-ins”.
Denise in OR
Hi Denise,
A huge number of people in the US (and beyond) are looking for making money from home. It is possible, but its also hard, hard work. I am inclined to write a book about it…;-) Just as a very brief tip: The best way to make money through the Internet is with a real product that you sell through your website plus Amazon and eBay. Just make sure the product is either popular or very unique!
Regards,
Wilfried
Scam, I have been scamed before, Never again will i fall for it. If the people say it’s only 2.95$ for the shipping, but when you go to the sight and it say’s 140.00 plus the 2.95 you know it’s a scam.. They never say anything about the 140.00, even the people that claim to have made money.
Thank you for the information. My husband and I were looking at this last night. We’ve been scammed a few times, so we also search something with the word scam after it.
For those of you looking for something to do from home, I can tell you a few. I am an independent consultant for the company who supplies the candles for the white house. It is not a get rich quick, but I personally know people who make over $1000 a month. You do work, but you can start by having friends/family over for an evening or afternoon of fun. They are on Facebook. Also, their website is – http://www.partylite.com
There are also serious jobs out there as secret shoppers. Google it. You do have to check the companies out, some are not legit.
kelly is just made up the real people behind this is online business system ran by shawn dahl. Another MLM. They make this one legal by joining up with herba life. So you are actually selling something. Good luck you must buy all the products then try to sell them and pay fees to the system. Then if you want a better rate say like 50% you must pay a few more thousands of dollars. Your lucky to get started for under $8,000 us dollars.
Kelly lives in Lewiston, Idaho It was 2 good 2 B true!!
I first read about Kelly and her “amazing” story just today, and almost fell into the scam! After doing a quick search, I see she has lived just about everywhere!! That’s alot of LOST JOBS; AND she hasn’t AGED a day!!
Well she is now in Western Kentucky, I knew this was too good to be true. The fast money ones always are.
Yeah i have just read it and it said she lives in doylestown pa which is where i live and i searched and comes to be that she has lived everywhere and this most likely is a scam u know scammers u really need to go out and make a descent living and stop trying to suck people in that are in financial hardship and take there last penny its a shame
Wow, I just read the ad and it said she lived in cary, nc, where I live. She get around, don’t she.
Wow, you all have it wrong, she lives in Laurel, MD
Well, Kelly Richards also lives in Atlanta, Georgia….
This is a shameful act. There are real people looking for jobs. I almost fell prey to this as well, but did some research and, well… you know “the rest of the story” as Paul Harvey used to say.
No, no, no…. She lives in Clarksville, TN! I am so glad I checked into this. I was ready to buy the kit and everything… which it says its only like $.99 but still!!!! Watch out everybody…. they will try to suck u in!!!!!
yeah i saw this and almost bought it until i saw the quote that says “i make more than my former jobs salary” totally missing the apostrophe. makes my day everytime i find a scam based on typographical errors.
I as well almost fell into this, until I did as the above and researched this and Kelly a little more. I actually am a Technical Recruiter and there is a legitimate way to make money this way, however you have to have a site and a blog and be willing to put her “fake” story on it to make money. The other way is the link you end up posting is basically a link just like her. I did a little research and the whois directory list the fake: onlinenews is fake, it is listed as all of the contact information to be “protected”. The only way to actually make money with this type of link posting scams is either to be a “Kelly” or be a spammer to all of the actual job sites, that people like me post to, I do have a site as well, however this comment is in no way a advertising of my site. I have just gotten tired over the years of hearing these stories from candidates looking for real jobs and getting ripped off. If you read the online news website conditions. You can tell that they are basically saying that you can not take any of the story with a grain of salt. See Below……I would stay away…..
ps: she is now moved to GLEN ALLEN, VA…..lol

I once got caught by “Teeth Whitening kit” scam, and learned lesson.
It is really disturbing some people are trying to take advantage of those who need serious help for living!
But I believe they will need to pay for what they do wrong.
Somehow, whoever Kelly Richards is, shows there is no such person living in Keene, NH to which she has scammed her way into New Hampshire to get others to join her scam. This article should be investigated by the FBI for online scams over the internet. She is asking for 23 people to join her scam for less than $3.00 dollars, for a limited time offer. The article even shows somesones’ bank account check. Where will Kelly go next, will she ever get caught?
Can’t believe I got caught out with this scam today before doing some research!
Note by Wilfried F. Voss:
The reader also posted the website’s URL and the entire content, which I both removed. The URL would only provide another hyperlink to yet another scam website, and I refuse to support these gangsters. I have moved the content of the website in question to my post at http://www.frogenyozurt.com/2010/04/kelly-richards-a-k-a-melissa-johnson-sighted-in-great-britain/.
Well guys Kelly Richards is now living in Pekin IL!!!!!! What a load of &^%$!!!!!
I was like ”WOW” and was gunna buy it, then i lost the page i was on….then i remembered her name so i googled her name and this web page came up…..I was mad I dont se y people have to scam others to make a living…BTW the artical i read said she was living here in independence, missouri in my home town….Grrrrrr I thout it would be the answer to all my problems….cant trust anyone these days i guess
It appears that Kelly Richards now lives in Nashville, GA. I also almost fell for this since I am thinking that hey, a Georgia woman is actually doing this. but it appears that another scam that we see daily is at work.
Joseph
Nope, she lives in Cupertino, CA…..NO, San Jose, CA…..wait. That’s Mountain View, CA. No, actually, that’s Los Angeles……….. Holy Cow!! That woman gets around.
Now it’s Mesa, AZ. Here is a copy/paste of the 1st line of the article…..”Kelly Richards of Mesa, AZ never thought she would have a job working at home until one day she filled out a simple form online.”
What’s really sad is the link to this article is at the bottom of careerbuilder[dot]com. I almost purchased the kit too until I found this site. So glad I did a little research. As they say if it seems too good to be true…it probably is.
Wow!! I just clicked back into the same article only now it reads “Have You Ever Considered Working Online? Melissa Johnson from Mesa, AZ never thought that she would, until curiosity got the best of her and she ordered a Robert Allen course called Internet Income System.”
Other than a few minor adjustments like income, # of kids, the cost and name of the kit (1st under $3 and now under $50) the rest of the article is EXACTLY the same. Definitely a scam in my opinion.
I am so skeptical of anything on the internet. Most sound “too good to be true” and every one that I have checked out has been a scam. I really need to find an honest, legitimate way to make money working from home using my computer, but how do i find it without getting scammed? Well, I am sure glad I checked this out first through my local news. It is May 5, 2010 and today she is getting rich living in Drexel Hill, PA, just a few miles from where I live! I just don’t get these lying thieves. Who raised them? I guess other lying thieves. God help us!
Careerbuilder[dot]com apparently also lives from Google Ads. You may even find those ads here on my web site. It’s out of my control. On a side note: If you see these ads DO CLICK on them! Every click does cost the scammers!
Hey now shes in MPLS , MN what abunch of she she sh**
she she is so low it sounded good and was looking how to apply when i came across frozen yo……. So glad I seen this I wish it was true I was looking forward to this being unemployed sucks…………..
I really need help because I was scammed for 140.00 for this so-called online job. I pray that it will be worth every flaming fire pit that hits your tail when you get to hell. Is the papaer worth your soul? Hell is waiting for the ones that are using people to scam innocent people that don’t have the money to begin with.
nope shes been living in st petersburg, fl for at least the last few months and she’s died her hair. lmao. hmph….and to think i almost believed her not once but twice
You are all mistaken! The real Kelly Richards lives in Joliet, IL where she is making over $7000 a month working only 15 hours a week (that’s just under $117 per hour folks) while raising her young son. I don’t know why you are all posting such mean-spirited things about our Kelly!! Everyone must be jealous because they aren’t mking $85,000 a year from a part-time job! Yeah, that’s it. . .LOL
Kelly now lives in Ada, Michigan. I think she moonlights at Amway!
Through my research I have come to the conclusion that Kelly Richards (a.k.a. Michelle Richardson or Melissa Johnson) is an alien who not only can change appearances, but also lives in all cities all over the United States at the same time. It is time we tip off the Men in Black that one – or more – of their resident aliens has left New York City.
Today, she lives in League City, TX. She keeps moving everyday.
Scam don’t pay. Please stop taking from the poor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I thought it interesting that on the add I found on career builders there were 2 pictures of a woman. One on the left side of the page sitting at a computer, then another on the right with a child. These 2 women had different colored hair and did not bear any resemblance. I knew I was going to check it out before going any farther.
Now she lives in Waukee, Iowa.. wow!!!
Cheat Cheat………she tracks the ip of your computer and hence locates the place and she falsely projects that she is from your place and tries to make you fall in the trap……BEWARE
Hey , I just read her story , she lives in Houston, Texas , I guess she live evrywhere ,…
Apparently, she lives in Cincinnati OH too. I almost fell for the scam until I googled her name.
Hi Lisa, I am glad you found the info here! Kelly Richards is an amazing woman, right?
Apparently Kelly lives in Mpls. MN as well…..I too almost fell into it….but decided to research this… I have been unemployed for over a year now and it sounded enticing….don’t do it.
Hi Mary,
I cannot express enough how angry I feel about these scammers, even though I am not personally affected by their activities other than posting articles about them. These times, more than ever, people are looking for work, trying to make a living, and that makes a perfect feeding ground for scammers. Unfortunately, it seems that our law makers are either unaware of the issue, or are simply unable to protect the American people.
Regards,
Wilfried
yaw dont no nothin, shes in Chapin S.C.
news on kelly…. shes in daytona now!!
Kelly’s ad shows her is Muntinlupa (Philippines) when you click on to Home Based Business you receive a ‘notice of winning a lotto prize.
Les,
Phil.
Not only does she lives in Elk Grove and Rocklin, CA I’ve also searched and there is no one name Kelly Richards in either of those cities. And, the picture that is shown is of two completely different person who don’t even look the same. It is indeed a SCAM where you need to signed up and pay a monthly fee….NOT!!
So, the big question is how do we stop whomever is putting out these ads?? Interesting thing is that when times are tough there is always someone out there trying to take advantage of people who are a little desperate, and who are willing to work hard to make a living.
Just remember that if it sounds too good, its probably is!!
No, SHe has jst been seen in Middletown NY. I looked into this and so happy I did not fall for it. Sorry for those that have.
just for kicks I went to the link that the blog wants you to go to and then I went to the bottom of the signup page and clicked on terms and conditions. Here’s what it says about the cost of this “make money from home system”
2.1 By submitting an order, You agree to Fast Net Learning, and bill me $79.99 every 30 days until I cancel. By acting today, I will get my first 7 days for just $1.97. I can cancel according these Terms . I also agree to the terms and conditions and Privacy Policy. I may cancel any time by calling is 877-669-2971, or by emailing support@fastnetlearning.com.
hah… 80 bucks a month… sounds like a pyramid scheme to me!
Wow!!! This is too good to be true!! Of course it is! But I think all the posters should do a facebook search for Kelly Richards in Portland, Oregon because really she lives here. NOT! You won’t find her any better than I did. hehehe. But apparently she lives here in Portland now! Hey!…not only that, but I saw the identical wonderful success story, and a pic of the same woman walking off a ship with her daughter, but apparently it’s Kelly’s identical twin “Tawyna Davis”! Lol! Freakin’ Leeches.
Kelly is thriving in Wilmington,NC also.
Today Kelly is in Clifton Park NY!! Different pic too!! How does this stuff survive for such a long period of time?? Aren’t there laws??
@Greg:
The Fast Net Learning 1-877 phone number doesn’t work…;-) It is out of service!
Tonight Kelly is in Canada. She works all over the world, no wonder she makes so much money.:)LOL
Why would all those well known news channels (CNN, USA Today, ABC, etc.) report a scam? Wouldn’t you think that they would investigate the situation? If this really is a scam, then shame on all of those news channels!
I was going to purchase this kit as well because I lost my job a few months ago and it wasn’t even because of me, my supervisor’s bosses sons needed a job so they used the smallest things to terminate me. I know this because I has quite few of my family members work there.
I’m young and need to start saving for my future, I don’t want to live in my parent’s house forever.
I guess Dear Kelly has moved again, cause now she’s living in Mobile, AL! I have almost no income, I get a check every month that barely makes it thru the 1st week let alone the whole month. I was going to do this but couldnt find the link again so I Google’d it & found this page. When your living week to week its so easy to get pulled into scams like this because your desperately looking for a way to make some income & be able to stop living week to week & start having a life you can enjoy without worrying about how your gonna buy gas or groceries. How can someone do this to someone else? How can someone prey on people who really need help? I just dont understand… I guess that just goes to show that there are horrible people in this world who like nothing better than to take advantage of the people who need help the most. I was almost sucked into this because of my situation. I wish that I could find a legitimate way to make money, online, from home. Im not able to work so I really need something like this… Does anybody know of anything like this thats not a scam? Also, has anybody tried Robert Allen’s Internet Income System? I looked at it & it seems ligit but because of all the scams ive seen im scared to try it. I mean, ive seen this guy on TV before but im still a little unsure. It says on the page that you only have to pay a small fee to access the content of his web site but that small fee is almost $39.99-$49.99 depending on when you do it. So if I do try this I want to be sure that im not being played because I cant just throw away money. If I could I wouldnt be writing this…
@Ashley:
The Robert Allen Internet Income System, in my personal opinion, is as useless as all other getting-rich-fast systems! The approach is very clever, but in the end it always comes down to the same conclusion: If it sounds too good to be true, it probably isn’t. There are many Robert Allen’s out there, and they all promise you to become rich. These days they use the draw of the Internet. First, creating sufficient income through the Internet is almost impossible. Secondly, if everybody can do it – as they claim – why aren’t we ALL rich? The only person making the BIG money is Robert Allen.
my brother in law tried it and he made almost 3000K a month…..
@JJ:
If I may say so, but: BULLSHIT!
Sorry! Usually, I treat comments with all fairness, but this one was most likely submitted by somebody associated with the scammer’s business. Also, what is 3000K…? This is the same typical grammatical insufficiency you find on their websites.
I have a question for all of you bull shit artists….
Why in my right mind or anyone pay anyone money to get information about a get rich scheme like yours???
If you are going to profiting from the concept of making thousands of dollars every week, the least you all can do is give away your ides and programs at no cost. Just for your information, I have started a campaign about companies like yours and will be blasting e-mails to over 3.8 million people about jerks like you, and your companies (which are clearly all scams) I will also be contacting all of the television talk shows so I can reveal your practices I will also have on my search engine, a story warning the public about companies like yours. I have a name of the search engine and it will be called “SCAMS ANONYMOUS” of which you are now a member of. There are thousand of desperate and venerable mothers who have young toddlers and children at home who would love to entertain having a home based system. It is a known fact, that there are only one or two legitimate companies that offer authentic home based profitable businesses on the Internet, however yours is not one of them. The testimonials you supply, are all voice over professional underpaid phony actors who lie to us as you do. Not people who were told they will be going to the promised land… I challenge you to provide a list of legitimate testimonials with their names, addresses and phone numbers on your site, so us assholes can contact them and verify your scheme. I’m absolutely positive these people do not exist, and if they do, they were tricked out of huge sums of money by you. Your fancy professionally produced web sites generate millions of dollars in revenue, targeting the unemployed, stay at home mothers as well as venerable low income families. Face facts, you are all complete frauds. They say there is a sucker born every day.. Well I am going to make sure all the “suckers” who receive advertisements from unethical scams like yours will be contacted, and we will stop being screwed by your phony promises to have their “DREAMS COME TRUE”. You seem to target the best suckers you can find out there… This is one sucker you will not have as a member of your fraudulent team. Why don’t you just name your Company “AA” (Absolute Assholes) !!! Good luck in your continuous fraudulent way of screwing the public out of their hard earned last dollars !!! If you feel I have offended with this letter, I will welcome a call from your legal team, which most likely does not exist. I assure you that con artists like you will be a thing of the past in the near future. Stop wasting the public’s valuable time!
I see an ad every day about Kelly Richards, and it says that she lives in Pompano Beach Florida. I have done a very detailed search for her and the only Kelly Richads that lives in Pompano Beach is a 96 year old lady who is just about able to hear, walk or see well. She has never owned a computer, When I asked her what “Google” was, she said it was some kind of bubble gum, or candy…
The absolute worse part of all these scams are the CNN, MSNBC, TODAY SHOW and etc. that they post as affiliates to pull you in. It is misleading, we are in desperate times and people look to these medaia outlets for trust worthy advice ( a stamp of approval & sense of security ). How can it be legal to use these big names to endorse illegitimate company’s without their knowledge or approval?
Really the worst part about all of these scams is that they are working or people wouldn’t keep doing them. If we are going to be upset with anyone for scams it should be ourselves. We create the opportunity for scammers to play these games by being willing to buy into them. Economics are based in supply and demand and we have set up a demand for some pie in the sky dream and as long as that demand is there then we will have people selling pies in the sky.
I really wish I wouldve done my reasearch before giving them my credit card information. Now they have it and were able to charge me 79.99 on the 6th day of my free 7 day trial period. The company is called fast net learning even though it isnt avertised as that the lady said she lived in Toledo and with all the testimonials plus MSNBC’s stamp of approval even advertising in my local newspaper I was hook line and sinker. To be honest I never trusted such things as these but for whatever reason I went along with the promise of quick money within your 1st week. I actually was never even able to access the information because my ID and password that I registered with said it was invalid. I contacted customer service via e-mail and they told me they couldnt help me and that I would have to contact the number directly do I did and in 6 days never got through. The line would constantly stay busy or when it would finally ring it would say that your hold time is 13 mins than the time would increase from there. I would send e-mail after e-mail telling them to cancel saying I would sue their company if they took my money anyways and the e-mails always came back saying that “im sorry that you arent happy with the service but take some more time to learn the program and make an educated decision and you wont regret your decision. Well now Im 79.99 in the hole and finally got in touch with them and they said they would “refund the money but it takes 7 days” and wouldnt let me speak to any superviser and as a matter of fact hung up with me when I asked to speak to a superviser. Yeah i probally will never see my money I mean gave me a confirmation number and everything I told them I found info on them being scammers and she didnt dispute it or anything. So I guess next time I wont be so trusting. The only way im going to see my money again is if my bank files a dispute but now Im going to have to get another card because all they will do is keep charging my the money. They will pay dearly you see I belong to God and He doesnt play around with people that mess with His annointed “Dont touch my Annointed and Do my Prophets no harm” These scammers have just messed with the wrong Saint! They will reap what they sow on THIS EARTH! ” Be not decieved God is not mocked that whatsoever a man sows that also will he reap”!
Well, I just wanted to let all of you know that I really appreciate thet fact that there are some honest people in this crazy world in which we live. I heard about this from someplace….can’t really remember. When I pulled it up, Ms. Richards lived in West Palm Beach, FL Columbus , OH…….I guess she has a home on every corner. It’s such a shame that people are struggling just to put food on the table and there is always someone standing in line to take their last dollar……..Shame Shame on you if your the one doing it!!
According to ONLINE News 6, She also lives in my town, Boonton, NJ.
Seems like ONLINE NEWS 6 is able to script it self to any IP address in order to make this scam work.
If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is a SCAM!
Thank you John Kuchma for your comment. We need more individuals like yourself out there.
this is not true is a lie dont belive any of this making money scam, i tried it n they charge my credit card $140 2 times n when i call they said nothin,put me on hold and never came back to the line, n sometimes wont even aswer, the number is buissy all the time,so there u go,somebody help! put a stope to this!
these quick get rich schemes are all trying to lure people in by making everything seem so easy and you’ll make lots of money quick,everyone seem to ask for money before you can start,but the way i see it if they were as real as they say i would definitely shout it to everyone i can for free so we wont have this recession problem,but just like diet pills make money on the overweight this is what they do to work on the less fortunate get a life guys!
I clicked on the link from a military base overseas. Notice how Kelly Richards is from nowhere now!
Copied and pasted directly:
“Kelly Richards of , never thought that she would, until curiosity got the best of her and she filled out a simple online form.”
Thankfully, most of these scammers have very poor grammar! That always makes me suspicious. Thanks to all for your research and findings on this. It is so wrong to take advantage of people in this poor economy. We are jobless with three kids, with college degrees which seem useless right now. People get desperate and just hope something like this will work. Read the fine print on the very bottom, and it says that their stories are not true! By the way, Kelly actually lives in Minneapolis! (Just kidding:)
These guys are one big scam. As soon as i sighed up i realized it’s a scam. They said i will receive a email in minutes- and got nothing. They said they will call within 48 hours- Nothing. A week later i get a call from a 10000-0000 number(oversees) i told them i will not talk to them from a number like that. i canceled my Credit Card. And said good bye to them.
DO yourself a favor read up on them before you pay a cent!
In the Uk shes Karen Wagner!!
Work At Home Mum Makes £4,397/Month Part-Time
Online News 6 Investigates Online Work at Home Programs…
Karen Wagner never thought she would have a job working at home until one day she filled out a simple form online. Before she knew it, she discovered her secret to beating the recession, and being able to provide for her family while at home with her two children.
Almost felll for the hype — because Kelly lives just 3 milea from me in Whitman, Massachusetts !!!! In the picture of Kelly walking by a pier by the water……Whitman is totally landlocked!!!!
Kelly Richards now lives in Conway, Ma. Anywho, I began looking at this scam only because a friend (not) sent me the info. I read the terms and found it interesting that they would let me try it for $1.97, but the fine print was that I could only try it for 24 hours and if I failed to cancel by phone I would be charged $137.23 (who knows what the 23 cents is for). In addition the terms say that if there is a dispute they decide who wins (I’m pretty sure it won’t be you). They tell you they want you to post links, but the terms mumble something about items you purchase to sell, and if you can’t sell it, it’s your problem. They are reluctant to give any hint of the name of the company. I found this site by doing a search for Kelly Richards. The thing that’s so funny is that I was thinking of selling some things on ebay and might have considered their mystery product. Guess I’ll go back to my original idea (it doesn’t include them)
I feel so bad for all of you idiots who pay ANYONE to work for them. I mean, since WHEN do you EVER PAY money to WORK? Sometimes your not even paying to work, you’re paying to LEARN to work. It sad that people are so desparate they literlly BUY into this garbage, but c’mon now since the beginning of time you work to get paid, there are no shortcuts, no easy money. Work hard and things will work out for you.
HI, I’m one of the “POOR IDIOTS” who has (today) paid to work for these so called scammers. After being unemployed for over a year you become desperate and want to earn some money. Oh well off to the bank on monday to make sure they don’t take more money out other than what I agreed to! And I would like to just add that I am NOT an idiot, I am a person that is TOO trusting!!
@Kizzy:
I agree, the term “idiot” is inappropriate. After all, the reason to write about the scam came after I saw the “Kelly Richards” online ad, and almost fell for it as well. The ads, despite some grammatical errors, are designed extremely cleverly. However, I did what everybody should do: Check out the credibility of these ads by googling them. It sounds obvious, but if something sounds too good to be true, it probably isn’t.
Kelly richards of henderson, North Carolina almost got me but i didnt act on impulse this time. I have learned that a temporary solution sometimes brings an everlasting problem. Dont ever jump into anything to quickly!! It may take a few minutes to get in but a lifetime to get out. God Bless.
Gee, Kelly Richards moves around a lot. She now lives in Albion, Michigan. This did pique my interest until I read the disclaimer at the bottom of the ad. I then went to Google and confirmed my suspicions.
I am an electrical engineer unemployed for six months now and at first glance this looked interesting for me or my wife. My wife spends most of her time on the internet playing Farmville so why not do something that makes real money.
I’m just glad I read the fine print at the bottom of the ad or I might have fallen for it too.
As everyone agrees the old adage still applies. If it sounds too good to be true it probably is (too good to be true).
Good luck to everyone out there trying to find their way through this recession. Things will get better but it is going to take a while.
I find it interesting that Kelly Richards now lives in Vernal Utah. Since when???? SCAM!!!!
I saw this article online on the Seattle PI newspaper website. Kelly Richards now lives in Boise, ID. I was curious so checked it out. I filled in my name, address and phone number but closed out of the website when it asked for my credit card and after I read the terms and conditions. Within an hour I got a phone call from a place called Direct Commerce Academy asking why I did not finish sighing up online. The man sounded like he was from India, bad connection on the line plus couldn’t understand him. After about 5 mins. of him trying to hard sell me I had to hang up. Within another hour, another man (same accent) called from the same company. I hung up again. It certainly turned me off in going any further. Do your research first! And…don’t fill in your name or phone number. I am not an idiot but was certainly a little to curious.
the news out here says she lives in palm springs ca!!!!wtf
She lives in Nairobi, Kenya too. Lol!!….. Desperate
She also lives in San Francisco Ca this is bullshit! SCAM BIG TIME!!!!!
She also lives in La Junta, Colorado and Westcliff, Colorado. Stay far far away from this scam.
Kelly Richards also lives in Omaha, Nebraska!
Kelly Richards lives in New Orleans, LA now, here’s the Agreement to sign up….
Electronic Signature Agreement: With this submission, I have agreed to order the Direct Commerce Academy System Trial Membership for the one-time electronic shipping and handling fee of $2.97. By participating in the trial offer, I recognize it will expire after five days, and should I fail to cancel, I agree to be billed a one-time activation fee of one hundred and thirty-nine dollars and ninety-five cents, in addition to a monthly fee of thirty-nine dollars and ninety-five cents for the three months following.
hi there !!!! well me as well been scamed for just over £200 . i just found myself in to deep . the bank had already authorized the transaction . so ive just canelled my card so i dont have an account . maybe i should have done it ages ago but i didnt know it was a scam . being on benifits for almost 5 years i was hopeing i could make some easy money working from home . sorry if you went through the same . i just hope you managed to get your money back . thanks for this blog little to late !never mind i will in future learn my lession and ask the question is there a catch? if so it will cost . from uk .
Hi everyone!
I wanted to share with you all how these people make money from home! First, they invest their own money to create a website like “Kelly Richards”. Second, they use fancy words (but not college words), testemonials, use trusted company logo’s (ABC, CNN, etc.) and of course, the pictures of those CHECKS! Finally, they wait for that one IDIOT FISH (sorry) to come along to be bait. The “Make $3,000 or more from home” comes from the number of people that buy their $1.99 program per month. Example: $1.99 x 3000 IDOTS = $5,970! Now, mutiply that number by 12 successful months of people still purchasing the program = $71,640 a year income for Kelly Richards!
But those figures are just from the $1.99 amount. It get’s worst! If the IDIOT does not cancel his/her membership “by phone”, the vendor will charge your credit card or debit card the normal product fee of $149 or $199 depending on the terms and conditions of the product that was purchased!
So, with in 24 hours, 3,000 people that purchased the program without reading the terms and conditions are charged $149, instantly! That’s 3,000 charges of $149 = $447,000 income for Kelly Richards in 24 hours! Now, multiply that figure by 12 succesfull months of SCAMMING PEOPLE, Kelly Richard made $5,364,000!!! (That’s $5.3 Million People).
Annual Income: $5,970 from the $1.99 charges and $5.3 Million from the $149 charges for a total income of? Who cares, it’s over $5.3 Million Dollars anyways.
Now, you all know how Kelly Richards can afford to live in multiple cities and states: FL, CA, WA, KS, etc. Kelly Richards knows what we all know…, “there will always be that one idiot that will fall for a SCAM”.
Remember, Kelly Richards and her group of scammers need 1,000 or more of you to buy her “Make Money from Home for only $1.99 program” to generate $$$ for them and continue fund her websites and muliple properties.
Oh, I use the number 1,000 instead of the 3,000 number so you can see how quickly you’d pick up my typo but you can’t pick up a scam that quickly?
Overall, I have to give it up for Kelly Richards and her group of scammers for making that much money from WORKING FROM HOME!
This scam method is used by many Get Rich Quick programs. Don’t be scammed!
If you want to make money, find an employer that will make you fill out a W2 form. Or become a Sell Employee that requires a 1099 form.
Never pay anyone for you to make money!
Remember to tell your children because Kelly Richards and her group of scammers will be waiting for the new batch of IDIOTS when they turn 18 years old to make money of them!
That’s all!

I fell for one these, but because it was a flyer posted in my college! I complained to the school and they said that I was entitled to my own opinion but I could NOT take the ad down. At first I wondered if someone just snuck in the building and put it there, but the fact that the school admin told me to let it be makes me wonder about how deep these pyramid schemes go.
Before anyone considers any online purchase, it is wise to just type in the company name and/or offer followed by the word “scam” and see what comes up. You’ll find groups like this one and then you can make an informed decision. Don’t get scammed by these offers. Legit companies will find you if you place resumes and posts online seeking online opportunities. (Check these out also, before you agree to anything and don’t pay them, your trying to get paid.) By the way, Kelly is now in WV. Here is a cut and paste from legitcareeronline[dot]com; Kelly Richards of Charleston, WV is a regular mom who lost her job last year, after an unsuccessful job hunt she started working online. I interviewed her about her amazing story and she revealed her steps for success…blah, blah, blah
PEOPLE … THIS IS A SCAM … DO NOT ACCEPT ANY TERMS AND DO NOT GIVE YOUR DEBIT CARD OR BANK ACCOUNT INFORMATION OUT. YOU WILL NEVER RECEIVED A CONFIRMATION EMAIL, YOU WILL NEVER RECEIVE ANY LINKS TO ANYTHING, IF YOU CALL THE CUSTOMER SERVICE NUMBER THEY WILL GIVE YOU A RUN AROUND AND NO RELATIVE INFORMATION LIKE A PHONE NUMBER FOR THE COMPANY OR ADDRESS FOR THE COMPANY AND CLAIM THEY ARE A THIRD PARTY HIRED CUSTOMER SERVICE. ADDITIONALLY AFTER THEY GET YOUR DEBIT CARD INFORMATION, THEY WILL NOT ONLY CHARGE YOU $2.97 US DOLLARS, BUT A WEEK OR TWO LATER DEBIT YOUR ACCOUNT CARD FOR $139.95. IF YOU CALL AND STATE THIS IS AN UNAUTHORIZED DEBIT, THEY SAY THEY WILL CREDIT YOUR ACCOUNT $40.00 TO $70.00 AND SEND YOU A CONFIRMATION EMAIL. THAT NEVER HAPPENS, AND THEY WILL CONTINUE TO CHARGE YOUR ACCOUNT $39.95 PER MONTH. THE ONLY SOLUTION AT THIS POINT IS TO CLAIM YOUR DEBIT CARD STOLEN AND GET A NEW ONE. IF YOU GAVE YOU BANKING INFOMATION, ACCOUNT NUMBER AND ROUTING NUMBER, CLOSE THAT ACCOUNT ASAP AND OPEN A NEW ACCOUNT. THIS IS WHAT THEY HAVE DONE AND BETTER LUCK NEXT TIME YOU SCREW UP AND GET DUPPED BY BAD PEOPLE LIKE THIS AGAIN.

PS, HAS ANYONE GOTTEN ANYTHING FROM DCA? OR MADE A REAL SUCCESS STORY FROM IT, I DON’T THINK SO.
I just became a fan of my HS and saw 2 posts on this scam in the feed. It’s people like this who ruin the reputation of Legitimate Online Internet businesses. I am an owner of an internet un-franchise co, partnered with Microsoft and Google and an A rating with the BBB. Very disappointing, because it makes my job harder, but, the rewards are real and greater!! Friends, Google everything, it’s there for a purpose.
I am just reiterating what others have said. Almost all of the internet get rich quick schemes are just that…schemes. If you are unsure of some kind of ‘business opportunity’, just type some of the information into the Google or other search engines and you will find information about the bogus business. The only one getting rich is the scammers. They get your $1.97 and then get the larger amounts off your credit cards(sometimes twice!) and you are left with nothing. I agree with the post earlier that says if you have to pay to work, its a scam! Selling things on EBAY or Craigslist will earn you more money than these scams. I am pretty angry at all the millionaires and billionaires in the world. The only question I want to ask them is this: Just HOW MUCH money do you REALLY need to live on?? What good is all those billions if it is not being used? I could live off 1 million let alone 100 million some do! Shame on the rich of the world who do not take life seriously and help those less fortunate than themselves!
@Julz:
I totally agree! In my mind, it does not make a freaking difference if you have 100 million Dollars or only 50. I could easily retire with only one million. A little additional dose of socialism (in terms of “social” = Latin for “human”) in this world would help countless people on this planet.
This a scam I was ripped off 139.95.Do not get involved with this they say .99but then a few days later bam they zap your account and when you call to find out whats going on they say toooooo baddddd!They will not give refunds and and you get nothing from these people just an empty bank account .I had to cancel my debit card to keep these people from stealing more money from Me.
Seems Kelly Richards gets around. She’s also from Concord NH! Surprised? NOT! Scam, scam, scam. Always remember, if it sounds too good to be true it probably is. I so dislike people who try to take advantage of others. Grrrrrrr
Well this Kelly Richards really gets around….I can’t remember what I was looking up @ the time on my pc..but this picture popped up of a woman sitting down, holding a baby…Talking about how much money she makes…And she is from Wadesville, Indiana…That’s where I live….Then another website saids she is from Poseyville,,,,Which is about 7 miles from here….You mean this is a scam???Well if she does live here people won’t be happy about that, this is a small farming community where everybody knows everybody…Or is that just a name that made up to use for there scam? Thanks Darlene
Seems that today Kelly is working in Chico, CA…. Oh my she gets around!.
Just in,….Kelly Richards spotted in Milford, NH ! LOL
In this day and age I wonder at the gullibility of folk in general, particularly since they’re using a tool like the internet, which can be easily used to expose these bogus deals before you part with your money. You don’t need God on your side, you need to think (and research) before you act.
its crazy, i am honest to god that 10 minutes ago i got on my computer with a credit card in my hand about to follow through with this crap. The sad thing is that my parents are barely keeping their heads above water. I was stupid to think this would work, it just fools the brain when your desparate. I thank god that I read this and also thank all of you for believing what is right.
C’mon people, all you need to do it poke around a little. Try clicking one of the many links on this “legitimate” news site…they all go to the same scam page! There is no “Home”, “Politics” or any other page on this “news” site. And at the bottom is says in small print that you should not take anything on the site literally! How much more proof do you need to make up your mind that this isn’t a legitimate site? The sad part is that so many of the people being taken advantage of are religious. Religion is part of the problem because it makes people stupid and conditions them to not ask questions.
I was researching starting my own business just this morning when I noticed this Kelly Richards add. I will admit I was impressed at first, I even had my wife read this news report from Online 8 (yes it’s changed from Online 6). My wife immediately said this is a scam!!!!!!!!! I then went to goggle to search for Kelly Richards and found that she is scamming people in every state. Apparently she doesn’t only live here in Charlotte North Carolina, after googling her she lives every where!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES THIS IS A SCAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And apparently these scammers are making plenty of money from people in need of jobs and money.
@J.M.W.
Yes, you are right. It’s all a scam. I was in the same position as you. I found the advertisement and was excited. These guys are very clever! Nevertheless, you (and I) did the right thing to check them out. Unfortunately, too many people (especially those who are in desperate need for additional income) jump at the idea and end up not only not making money but losing it. It is also unfortunate that government officials have no means to stop these gangsters, since the websites always include a legal disclaimer, even to a point where they admit that the website’s content is faked. If you sign up anyways, you are the only to take the blame. – Wilfried F. Voss
THIS IS NOTHING BUT A SCAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, READ THE FINE PRINT ON THE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN!!!!!!!!!! it reads(Thus, this blog, and any page on this website, are not to be taken literally or as a non-fiction story. This blog, and the results mentioned on this blog, although achievable for some, are not to be construed as the results that you may achieve on the same routine.) The key words are NOT TO BE TAKEN LITERALLY, AND ARE ACHIEVABLE FOR SOME. The only SOME who are achieving this are the scammers behind this Kelly Richards that apparently lives in two or three cities in every state! Before you give these fools any of your hard earned money Google this Kelly Richards.
I guess she’s on vacation because now she’s in Hawaii!!!! Nice to “have that kind of money” huh? Screw you!!
And shes in Finland too using name Johanna Suominen
. Im sure there must be some ways to stop this kind of net behavior. For me this is a crime what becomes to pages paidsurveysetc[dot]com represent. First abusing peoples pictures, names, newspaper trademarks etc (as the advertisement) and then fake hyperlinks in website…
I truly believe its a crime what becomes to the law.
She’s actually in Appleton, Wi right this instant! Wow, she must be real rich getting around like she does.
She’s now in Tel Aviv…
The problem is that this website ask that you will connect to facebook.
This means that it has all your information (including personal).
What it can do with it?
Your facebook profile contains your email, gender, friends, work, phone numbers etc.
Selling this information to other companies is very profitable (and is illagel in some countries), and this is how this woman (or actually the mobs behind her are making money).
shes know in New Zealand…. lol…. clicked on a ad on facebook to discover she is now making $7000. to $9000. a month part time….
good on ya Kelly!
Yep. she’s still in New Zealand, Christchurch to be precise. Must have settled down in her globe trotting some. Maybe she likes excitement and came here for the earthquakes.
Now she is Los Angeles.
Now she’s in Michigan. LOL
Kelly Richards resides in Forest Park,GA. I fell for this stupid scam. Luckily all they charge me was for 2.97. I told my bank what happened and they are sending me a card with alternate numbers and voiding the card they charged so they cant make anymore charges. I feel stpid,but at least I knowbetter now. If it seems like it’s too good to be true, THEN IT IS!!!
She was here in Monteagle, but skipped town one night leaving $8,000 and some change in unpaid bills. I bet she will show up in your town shortly.
ERE
Now she is in Palmdale,California……..a long way from Hawaii or Tel Aviv! This b**ch gets around, doesn’t she? Kiss my a**!
Actually it works i made 9999999999999999999999999999999999999999 Pounds in 2 minutes. yeahh yeaaah. Now i will retire and buy my own planet.
She’s in Bristol in the UK now… she must be a bit thick, because if it was a choice of our weather or California’s, I know what I would choose.
So glad I thought to google ‘Kelly Richards’ I was almost gullible enough to try it!!
Here she is at Bangalore..
Have You Ever Thought About Working Online?
Kelly Richards of Bangalore, 19 never thought she would have a job working at home until one day she filled out a simple form online. Before she knew it, she discovered her secret to beating the recession, and being able to provide for her family while at home with her two children.
She is in Eastlake,OH WOW!
She is here in Dollard Des Ormeaux, QC now!!
Well, now I see she’s in Nashville, TN. This is beyond low…very cruel for a company to do this when people are hurting for money so badly.
Yep she made it to Hicksville NY!!! Wish I can travel with her to her next destination but I’m 3 dollars short of a plane ticket!!!
She’s in Nebraska now! LMAO!
Mabuhay! Don’t you believe it! She’s in Philippines now. “Kelly Richards of Cavite, Cavite City”.
Now shes in Perth WA and wasting my time with my Dad saying this is the next best thing since sliced bread we all should get on it, yes my dad is from the older side and every thing on the net is true… stop wasting my time with all this stuff.
!@$% me, I can’t believe it, she’s in Calgary, Alberta, Canada now. This woman is everywhere. It’s unbelievable!
This is a making of a new game, sequel to the first “Where’s Waldo Richards?” Now known as: Where’s Waldo?
Where’s Kelly?
Hay everyone, she’s now in Redding Calif. What a jet setter!!!!!!!!!!!!
She has made it to Sydney Australia!!!!
Wow. I’d really like to find this Kelly Richards…she looks really hot and I’d kinda like to hit that! I’ll bet though that with all the traveling she has to do to be everywhere all the time she probably wouldn’t even have time for a quickie…unless i could top what she is used to making with her work at “home” scam. I mean, c’mon, if i’m gonna get screwed, I just want her to do it the right way and make it good for BOTH of us!
She’s in none of the places identified above. She’s here in Montana. I know this is true because I just got an e-mail from her.
If people are smart then they would know that there is no way someone can make that much money off line or else no one would be broke!! Always check google for scams. And yes…..if it looks too good to be true…..IT’S A SCAM
Well, Kelly doesn’t have a location in my article! Maybe she forgot to fill in the blank. “Kelly Richards of , never thought….”. Kelly must be worn out spending her $ and travelling all the time!
And she just showed up (Dec 6, 2010) in Spring, Texas!!!!
Hey, If you are looking for Kelly, she now lives in Marion Ohio…..Is she single??
Luckily, didn’t get caught in this scam, but always looking. The puzzling thing is that it came from an old friends email address. Never know
She’s in Raleigh NC. So glad I checked this out before getting caught up in this scam!
LMAO – She is in Raleigh NC, and she only charged me $0.99! Only because I thought it was too good to be true, I closed out of the site and a special offer stated I could get the special discount. What a LOOSER!
NO SHE IS IN SLIDELL, LOUISIANA, WHAT A BUNCH OF B.S. IS THERE A WAY TO FIND OUT WHO THE “SCAMMER” REALLY IS AN HOW THEY CAN GET AWAY WITH THIS CRAP????? I SERIOUSLY DOUBT GOOGLE CONDONES THIS AN IF THEY DO THEN EF THEM IM GOIN TO USE BING;)THINK THAT IS THE SCAM RUNNING THAT ARTICLE FROM YOUR HOME USING A DIFFERENT CITY AN STATE LOL WHAT A CROCK OF SHIT!!!!!!!!!
She is now in Fort Worth, Texas. Damn…scammed again!!!!
i feel like an idiot for believing this for even a second! But hey, i was smart enough to say to myself “hmmmmm” and well…here i am.
wholly crap! She’s right here in my home town of Dacula, GA. Should I invite her over for Christmas. This must be real. I have a house for rent on Craigslist and received her e-mail. It must be her. Nobody sends spam on Craigslist.
Dec. 18th…. Dacula, GA…Dec. 20th…. Boise, Idaho….. WOW wish I could pack, move, and unpack that fast…. I wouldn’t need money from them, I would have a biz moving people and make a load of money doing it with that skill.
What amazes me is that she gets to all of these places using a ship. I guess she does her work while she travels. She’s in Melbourne Australia today
Joder macho, ahora nos visita en Tomelloso, España, habrá que hacerle un recibimiento con Don Quijote a ver si con su abundante dinero compra todos los molinos de la provincia para que el famoso caballero no tenga más oponentes y, si lo convence, a lo mejor se una al exitoso negocio de nuestra querida Kelly!!!
Wow Kelly… From Australia to Spain to Idaho/USA all in one day!!! Oh Kelly Richards, you savvy biatch.
oh no!!! i so feel for it too. just paid $2.97 also. Crap! If i call my bank will they stop it! She was in Pittsburgh, Pa!!!
Awe man!!!!
Johanna is still in Finland enjoying the snow, although freezing just a little, poor woman…
Friday Dec 23,2010 6:17pm
Ms Richards is now in Mesa, Tempe, Scottsdale & Phx, Az.
The fact is, the internet is absolute Utopia for scam artists and a mine field for the naive. Back in the 60′s (yes the 60′s) when there were some envisioning a future where everyone could communicate and make transactions on computers, while others were concerned about that idea. In fact, some computer scientists of the time(and later) worried of what we(internet users) experience now; information overload and varying regulations- depending on state and government local.
There are billions of pieces of information a second travelling over the internet so, you do the math. Even if there are groups and organizations looking out for your best interest- the damage has already been done. For example, the people who were scammed. I have heard of many accounts of people spending more money trying to legitimately correct the mistake than they spent on the scam itself.
If I could offer any advice, it would be to keep the internet in a entertainment and reference perspective, only. I do not bank online and the financial transactions I perform are very limited and with apprehension. The new “phrase” should be, ” there is no such thing as a totally safe site!”
Where in the world is Carmen San Diego AKA Kelly Richards??? In Atlanta, GA watching the Falcons play the Saints tonight. I was about to jump in…then I searched CNN for her name and found it to be non-existent on the website. Surely, the “CNN Job Report” would have come up. Boy oh boy!
Scammed This is NOT real! I had to pay the ship charge but then cancelled my credit card ! RRRRRRRR
Thanks for all the infomation, she has now made it to Salmon, Idaho, I would love to do all of her traveling.
Now she’s in Cartersville, GA! Makes me sick how do these people sleep at night? Glad I am not them when it comes their time to stand before GOD!
She’s clocking up the Air Miles!
It seems she is now working from Oxford, UK.
Can’t seem to find her ‘blog’ anywhere. What does she have on the blog that is making her money. Or do I have to pay the under the $5 to find out?
You would think that it would be easy to find her somewhere and see more proof.
She has been known to reside in PA.
I can’t believe people fall for something like this. If it were real, why wouldn’t EVERYBODY be doing it? Why would there be anyone unemployed? Why would there be anyone at poverty level? If it sounds to good to be true, IT IS!!!
After receiving the article in my email today, I was curious enough to click on the Start Up Kit link. Surprisingly, it didn’t work. I was interested in knowing what recession these people were suffering through in January of 2008. Their responses said they started three weeks ago and had made all this money. Well that would have been in December 2007. Don’t recall the recession at that time. Googled the Headline and found the SCAM alert.
Another obvious tip off of a scam is the “act now” aspect. They tell you a wonderful story, and try to get a quick decision out of you. Research shows (on infomercials for example) that if you don’t “fall for it” by buying right away, then the chances you’ll buy at all drop considerably, so it’s important for the scam artist (or salesman) to create an urgency.
When I went to the same site, (knowing my location was another tip off) it said this special offer expires tomorrow. Heh, no kidding, too bad I’m not a moron.
Someone said she is living in Coquitlam, B.C. It is so wierd.
I just read the article early yesterday,better yet it said she was living in the very same county I was,which was Wayne,Michigan,and that the special rate for the HOME INCOME KIT was only to last a day – day 1/2 longer.Why do these things always come in 3′s???
yeah now she resides in summerville, SC
She has been in Linden North Carolina since 9 am
I’m in Lenoir NC and she’s here too! It says Lenoir Job Report (it looks professional…but there too that’s part of the ‘bait’. Instead of selling links on websites she should be selling her amazing travel techniques (LOL).
Now she lives in Midlothian,TX. Damn, This woman sure moves often. Like in whatever town, city, state, or country you live in, she amazingly lives there too.
haha…. she’s also in chardon, oh… oh and she looks quite different and has a different daughter… lol….
This is so crazy… She also live in my small town of Vian, Oklahoma. I had fell for this scam about one year ago. They are based out of Florida. I was unable to cancel membership and get my refund. I was charged extra charges on my credit card. I argued for three hours. My fiance and brother just happened to be working in Florida at that time. My dad called and threatened them to refund my money or he was sending them over …… I had a refund the next day
Unfortunately I have dealt with other scams that I did not receive my refund.
She is also in Texas. What a scam!!!!!
haha she’s now in England!?!?! someone want to explain how you can get from Texas at 4:21AM to Manchester, England at 23:22?? That’s 7,759.26 kilometres (4,821.4 miles) in 19 hrs. you cannot get a direct flight from Texas to where i live and you certainly cannot drive to and from the airport, check in at both ends and then somehow still have the time to post your location!! lol don’t even read the whole page… its a waste of your life
Since tonight she moed to Miami,we welcome her with all her wealth!
HAHA now she is in Tallahasssee,FL. WOW what a scam. I wish there was something out there but if it sounds to good to be true than I guess it is.
Check it out – now she is in my town – Silver Spring, Maryland!
Now she here in Brooklyn, Ny
She’s such a get around – she is now living in Swansea, Wales UK!!!
such a scam!!!
I bet the woman in the photo doesn’t even know it’s being used for this scam!!!
Well, Just for today, She’s in London Ontario. But here’s the kicker, when i saw this I had a hearty guffaw:
WARNING: Offer Expires Tuesday, January 32, 2011
Last Time I checked, January had only 31 days. BTW, CHANNEWS33[dot]com is owned by some Chinese guy in Nantong, china, and the site was registred on the 27th of Jan 2011, for 1 year
Goodness me, now Kelly is a Gunnedah,NSW, Australia resident as claimed by the Gunnedah Consumer News Report.
Gunnedah has certainly gone up in the world since I was last there
She living in San Antonio, Tx as well:
“Kelly Richards of San Antonio, Texas never thought she would have a job working at home until one day she filled out a simple form online. Before she knew it, she discovered her secret to beating the recession, and being able to provide for her family by working from home.”
here in the uk we are counting our blessings as she has moved to northampton to give us all loads a money

Girl gets around. She’s in RI too.
You are all wrong. She lives in Bristol (England) with her THREE children. Over here she works no more then 13 hours/week unlike her American doppleganger’s 15 hours. Mind you, when all locations are considered she must be one hell of a busy woman.
She’s now on Marco island in FL with one daughter. Apparently she’s SUPERWOMAN.
Kelly Richards is a fraud. Sun City, Az is a age restricted community of 55 and older and does not allow children under the age of 18!
Today Kelly is living the “high life” in Rancho Cucamonga, CA. I especially got a kick out of ghgv’s message. On Feb 10, she was in the retirement mecca of Sun City, AZ. Yep, no youngin’s allowed there!!!
This is actually fun, to read all the places Miss Kelly has “lived”. Glad to see we are sharp enough to see a scam, and still have a sense of humor about it.
OMG now she is living in GR, MI. It is really amazing how she can get around. Twice in one day, across the entire U.S: 3,000 miles in 7 hrs.
kelly is working as a call girl in mexico her on line job didnt work out she charged me $10.00 for a goodtime last night sometimes its good when the internet fails.
She’s currently living in League city, TX .
BTW They extended the promotion!!
Offer Promotion Ends Tomorrow: Wednesday, February 16, 2011
Kelly Richards from Brooklyn, NY never thought that she would, until curiosity got the best of her and she filled out a simple online form. Before she knew it, she discovered her secret to beating the recession, and being able to provide for her family while at home with her three children.
I read Kelly’s blog last month and decided to feature her story in our local job report. In our phone interview she told me her amazing story. “I basically make about $6,000-$8,000 a month online. It’s enough to comfortably replace my old jobs income, especially considering I only work about 10-13 hours a week from home.
Working online has been a financial windfall for Kelly, who struggled for months to find a decent job but kept hitting dead ends. “I lost my job shortly after the recession hit, I needed reliable income, I was not interested in the “get rich quick” scams you see all over the internet. Those are all pyramid scams or stuff where you have to sell to your friends and family. I just needed a legitimate way to earn a living for me and my family. The best part of working online is that I am always home with the kids, I save a lot of money.”
“I basically make $6,000-$8,000 a month online.”
- Kelly Richards
I asked her about how she started her remarkable journey. “It was pretty easy, I filled out a short form and got immediate access to the Automated Profit Package. I got the Kit and within a month I was making over $4,000 a month. Its really simple, I am not a computer whiz, but I can use the internet. I fill forms and surf sites, I don’t even have to sell anything and nobody has to buy anything.”
Online giant Google, worth over 100 billion dollars is the most used search engine and internet market place. Google is the #1 internet site in the world, over 50 percent of all internet traffic flows through them everyday. Using Google and the other search engines to make money online has been a eye-opener for Kelly. There are plenty of scams on the internet claiming you can make $50,000 a month, but that is exactly what they are scams. From my conversation with Kelly, “I am making a good salary from home, which is amazing, under a year ago I was jobless in a horrible economy. I thank God every day that I filled out that form.”
Quickly, Kelly Richards was able to use the simple Automated Profit Package to make it out of the recession.
Kelly had never shared her story before, and with her permission, we are putting it public
Step 1
Go to this link, fill out a basic online form and hit submit at Automated Profit Package
Step 2
Follow the instructions at Automated Profit Package and set up your account.
Step 3
You should receive your first cheque within a week or so. Or you can start to have them wire directly into your bank account. (Your first cheques will be about $500 to $1,500 a week. Then it goes up from there. Depends on how much time you spent on it.)

I’d just like to add my story; I think others would like to hear it. I too was always leery about work at home offers because they always seemed to be scams. But after the recession hit, I was a little frightened. I wanted to have a backup plan just in case. So, I took your advice and got my free kit. It worked like a charm – I was earning money right away! I eventually did get laid off, just as I had feared, but since I had been using the online kit, I had money to fall back on. Now I’m doing better than I had at my job!
YOU ARE ALL WRONG ,SHE LIVES RIGHT HERE ON LONG ISLAND NY LOL
Kelly Richards sure gets around. Today she resides in Barrie Ontario Canada.
haha now she is in new market ontario
Don’t you Guys get it ?
With all that money she made, now she’s living in a private plane and travelling all around !!
All she need to do is get her computer with her and keep making more $$$$$
LOL !!
Is there really any work from home job that works? I don’t care where Kelly lives right now, because it is apparent that she is a “pen name” or whatever “the Company” calls it. I would assume that one would have to go through certain channels, in order to have remote access to a Fortune 500′s servers/client list, and where a mistaken key-stroke entry can cost a company thousands, if not millions? I know there ARE work from home jobs that are legitamate, but where are they?
I think that Mario has the right idea! I enjoy the non-clickable links on the sites where this fake ad was published. Also, I like the small print at the bottom of the webpage admitting that it was a scam all along!! LOL! Brilliant!!
Well, I saved this about a yr ago, and today I was going through my favorites cleaning it out. I seen this ad that I saved. I was reading the comments that says they were posted this month, but some of them I was reading and they sounded just like the ones I read from this site before… So I google her name and found this website. As I read that ever time someone logs in this webpage changes the name of the City.
Well the dates on the comments also change.. WOW GOOD WEBMASTER…. I worked for an Internet provider and I don’t think our webmaster could do that……
BEWARE READERS THIS IS A SCAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
She now resides in sunny Hurlstone Park, Sydney, Australia. What a scam !!!
All I have to say is SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM
sad to say – because she’s “living in auckland, new zealand”, I fell for this!!!!!
I am almost desperate to get off welfare & thought ——. Yes, I should have checked it out FIRST!!!!! Such critters are psychopathic predators!!!
So the google thing serriously isn’t real? I just got an email asking me to work for them.
I am so glad that I checked more into this before committing. I was hooked too, i was ready to sign up and make lots of money, which i knew deep down that it was to good to be true especially since this isn’t the only work at home business i looked into, I also looked into the “Paid to Place” business. I was ready to sign on here too until thank God I asked around facebook to see if anyone had heard of the business and that is when someone sent me an article review about the work at home business telling me it was a scam which in turn made me check that much harder into the Work at Home Mom. I really want to find a legitimate work at Home business making decent money to help out with my family!
is the work from home legitimate from google
I am an unemployed mom with two children.
I need to make some money working at home.
Hey Dale and Eva – since you can’t read or comprehend, you are not allowed to hold a job or make any money. Sorry. You should let your relatives make all decisions for you from now on and cancel the internet for God’s sake – you are too dumb to survive !
funny this same girl lives all around the world………….
What should I do 2 start this kind of work ? I am a mom w/2 kids and I need 2 make money.
Please, HELP me here
THNX
@Eva and everybody else asking for advice on how to make money from home:
I am sorry, but the reality is very harsh. These days you cannot make a living from home through the Internet, unless you have some great talent and skills. Look at this very website. I have been working on it for about two years, and at this time it has roughly 2,400 pages. After two years I make roughly US$80 per month through Online ads, which is just enough to pay the bills for Internet connection and the website. I made much less than that during the first year. Needless to say, but I make my money the old fashioned way: I work. Yes, I have my own business – since 1993 – and the website is here to boost sales. Still, I don’t sit at the swimming pool, sipping my vodka martini, and the money flows magically into my account.
I do understand the hardship of having a family and not having a job, but don’t ruin your life by signing up for phony services that promise you easy income. Creating income through the Internet or any other way requires hard work, talent, and skills. The money doesn’t come on its own.
If you are serious about working from home, go to your local bookstore or Barnes & Noble and get a book in the nature of “Working from home for Dummies” (No insult meant here; I use the “Dummy” series all the time). I am not a consultant, and I cannot tell you what will work for you, but I am sure that there is literature out there that can help. Just don’t expect easy income. Success comes only with a lot of blood, sweat, and tears.
Funny, she lives in Melbourne Australia too but is called Melissa Johnson. The picture of her is exactly the same one as the one shown here of Kelly Richards from Greenfield, Auckland etc etc.
All such proposals in the internet are scams, be aware and come back to reality. They will suck every penny out of ya wallet or you will get fooled, no one will give you money for doing nothing!
PEOPLE USE YOUR BRAIN UNLESS ITS BURNT, LIKE JUDGE JUDY ALWAYS SAYS IF IT DOES NOT MAKE SENSE THEN ITS NOT TRUE,ALSO YOU SHOULD NEVER HAVE TO MAKE THE INITAL INVESTMENT TO GET STARTED UNLESS YOU ARE BUYING THEM FOR YOUR OWN BUSINESS NOT TO GIVE TO SOMEONE TO GET SOME INFORMATION—-JESUS CHRIST PEOPLE YOU CANT GET ANYMORE INFO FROM ANYONE USE THE INTERNET SAY IT OUT LOUD IF IT DOES NOT SOUND REAL THERES YOUR ANSWER
How can i check if this kind of jobs are legit? is there any site i can use? and is there a real job for just using the internet? i really need the money and i have to take care of my 4 month old baby girl. can anyone help me?
Funny the same article had the same story but different name called Capital one revenue. has anybody ever herd of them. @ wilfred I agree you want to work from home start your own business.
looks like Melissa Johnson has moved to UK now
Kelly Richards from Auckland, NZ never thought that she would
thats because she hasn’t !!!
funny advert as they have two pictures of kelly and they’re two different people altogether.
they cant even get there scam right?
disheartening; well i can learn from this mistake, was duped into a paid survey online job. spent money on the registration too. was just out to make a little money but after signing up, not a single survey form came my way via email. hope these guys have fun fooling with people. there’s ten times karma for the people who benefited from this scam.
hi..im frm indai..
i wanna make some money..What should I do 2 start this kind of work ?
Thank God! I happen to check if it was scam… I was almost about to sign up…
she moved to Bavon, VA as of today : )
Hi everyone. Sorry for all the confusion and that I haven’t been able to post an explanation. The trip from Auckland to Bavon was extremely tiresome.
Anyway, I actually make so much money now that I’m able to move around the world frequently. I often change addresses to protect my identity. That’s why you see all the different addresses.
My job does have its list of requirements though. You must know how to use a computer and how to log onto Google. Having an understanding of the international Google sites helps.
Just kidding, folks.
well she apperently also visitng the Middle East, cause she now lives in Tel-Aviv
I hope someone can give me her frequent flyer number, she probebly have lots of points
Hi Kelly, thanks for explaining. I am really happy for you, making a lot of money now, visiting many countries. I noticed you have moved to the Netherlands now. Good for you. But my god, how can you do this to your kids? They must be in a permanent state of jetlag! If I see you keep moving to other countries then I will inform child protective services!
Wow, and here I thought she was from Whitby, Ontario, Canada!! I’m pretty sure that they have the ad set up to somehow input the city or town that is closest to the person looking at the ad…heck there’s no other reason why she would be from Whitby!! lol
I do however feel strongly about those of you who feel you have the right to tell others that they are too stupid to live and make decisions on their own!! It can be both sad, and amazing at what people will and can do when they are under extreme pressure. If you haven’t got anything nice to say…then may I suggest you not say anything at all!!
Haha Kelly Richards is from Tauranga, Gisborne today, these scammers and their budget software obviously can’t read a map!
There are plenty of ways to make a good income online, affiliate programs are pretty good esp. via clickbank. Sell only behalf of people who have integrity, what they’re selling is all the evidence you need. Peace:)
the Home Income Cash System – same picture now she is Melissa Johnson from Australia – making $7-8,000 per month – some should screw and nail these people to the wall. Gives you a 24 hour window or you will miss out – oldest scam and sales tactic I know and was taught.
Thankyou! Was almost ripped off too, but noticed there wasn’t a gold lock for the ccard details so double-checked the net. There’s a lot of clues to see this is a scam, actually, if you look hard enough. Hang in there, something else lucrative (and legit!) will come our way soon!
There is no Melissa Johnson living in Dryden, I Know, because I live in Dryden This is a scam
Alright folks… for all of you wondering the REAL way to make good money using just the Internet working from home I’ve devised a careful method that is certain to make you a cool few grand quick. This method is tried, tested and true! No way to fail because you’re never putting money INTO the system, just sitting back and watching the cheques clear
Cheers and jeers and good luck in your investments lmfao
The secret…?
Plenty of people have known about this for years! The only real way to make good money from the Internet working from home, the secret to never having to handle any products, services or customers. START AN INTERNET SCAM!! I mean gees, everyone’s doing it these days and hell seems like there are plenty of you gullible go-getters out there willing to spend your last buck on something that promises you the world. So take all that experience you have getting drilled by these scams and come up with one of your own.
Enjoy that vodka martini by the pool I know you’ve been dreaming about
If something sounds to goo to be true it probably is. I got an email sending me to a web page where Jennifer Parker of Arizona supposingly makes 7,197.00 while working part time. Like all ads i see I usualy check them out and this was no exception. It’s bogus, and what makes it even worse is these people are praying on the poor and desperate. Please don’t be fooled by them. Check them out first. I read the same article the only difference were the names of the moms, the amount they made, and their location. She (Shara) claims to make between $5,000.00 and $7,000.oo per month. Please do some research before you get ripped off.
Ok guys we’ve established that Kelly Richardson does NOT live around the corner from ALL OF US! But, what should be published is…..”Learn how —insert name here—- lost $ 19.99″ just by sending IDIOT SCAM artists money! You know we lock our doors, we lock our cars, so thieves can’t steal. How do we put a lock on THIS SHIT??? We MUST report every time it happens! Maybe the thieves will get LOCKED out eventually!
Tina from……Ontario
There are some work from home jobs available if you want to work. Try acddirect.com and alpineaccess.com. They are companies that provide telephone customer service. With ACD Direct you are a private contractor not an employee but Alpine Access you are a W2 employee. If you are not looking to get rich quick but need to make extra money and are willing to put in the time the opportunities are there. ACD Direct is more flexible than Alpine Access.
Kelly has now moved to Toronto. For a “regular mum” (whatever that means) she certainly gets around. If something sounds too good to be true, well, you know the rest. There is no Nigerian prince who is going to send you millions of dollars, there is no miracle weight loss pill, and no way to make $7,000 a month by “filling out a simple form”. If there were, everyone on the planet would be doing nothing else.
There are a bunch of ways you can make money working at home. You could:
1. Start an ebay/etsy/amazon business, buy or make a product at one price and sell it at a higher price.
2. Gain a skill that you can do at home. I know a lady who works as a draftswoman, another does garden design.
or
3. Become an internet scammer. Tell lots of other people you will give them lots of money if they just give you $50. Put up adverts all over facebook, then pocket the cash.
No one is going to pay you for doing nothing. Think about it, if it was that easy they would be doing it themselves.
Things to look out for:
1. Easy in. They’ll ask for something simple (just click this link), then something harder (just give us your email) then something harder (now your card details). This is a classic sales technique.
2. A long tall website. Scrolling down is easy so they keep your attention.
3. Lots of “featured in” links that don’t go anywhere. Click the links. Is it really featured in Sky, the BBC, Forbes, etc? No it isn’t, or there would be a link.
4. It says it’s free, then it isn’t. Again, easy in.
A friend of mine recently lost £250,000 and her house to a series of scams like this. Be aware.
SCAM…Kelly Richards has mooved once again to Blacklick OH. SCAMMMMM…Don’t fall for it!!! BS BS BS You would think these STUPID SCAMMERS would at least change pictures instead of the same stupid picture of her walking off the boat! To SCAMMERS.,…you think you are so smart, get more creative, DA!
Link for “News Daily 7″ was posted by facebook page. Read it and immediately thought it was a scam. I live in a city with only 23,000 people. seriuosly the chances that I click on a valid page and find a person like this living in my town is crazy. Googled her and found you.
So, after a few hours in OH, it seems Kelly up and moved to Kerrville, TX
She’s in Taylor Mi. I knew I seen this add before so I googled her name,came across quite a few sites on the scam but I’ve been in Taylor my whole life(of 33 yrs) & i would of heard or seen something about her locally if it were true & apparently she gets around alot!!!!!Just use a little bit of common sense here people & investigate ANYTHING YOUR GOING TO PUT YOUR CREDIT CARD # ON.
Kelly Richards is now living in Calabash NC….small town. Same picture. too sad.
Kelly also seems to live in the cities of Brisbane and Melbourne in Australia. These cities a about 2,000 Km apart.
Folks if it looks like bulldust, smells like bulldust and feels like bulldust, then it is bulldust.
They charged me half to join and then 183.00 for website. Got my money back. BIG SCAM, but Kelly lives in High Point, NC. HAHAHAHa
Kelly recently arrived at Bangalore! I hope she will rest, she has earned a lot all across the globe ; ). I never knew Bangalore had any sea port.
I read the ad through facebook today and now she’s apparently living in Stockholm, Sweden! I got curious about the ad because in Sweden it’s not very usual to be a stay at home mother and we don’t usually have english names like Kelly Richards… we’re more likely to be namned something like Elin Svensson =) (not my name though..)
Ha, Kelly Richards is amazing, she just arrived to West Palm Beach, Fl.
She has been scamming people all over the world and graciously decided to include us in Her SCAM.
Thank You Ms.Richards for not discriminating against us.
Thank You Very Much.

Wow! I was quite close to signing up!
Anyone have a site of where one could work from home with a pretty good pay per month? One that isn’t a scam?
Looking to work from home.
I almost fell for this one, I always chechout internet opps as I have been scammed a few times, if it seems to good to be true it probably is, dont fall for this one, these people are just after your money.
I just read her ad and she said that she’s from Palau.
Melissa Johnson is now in Greenock in the uk. I was going to sign up and decided to check it out first. Typed in Melissa Johnson’s name and found this page
I actually did sign up for this. I didn’t give credit card info I closed out of the page at that point. I noticed that when you are filling out your credit card information, the web address starts with just http. If it is a legit secured site, the web address will start with https. That’s a good tip for anyone to have who may not know.
This is how she moves around so much geoip_city()

you know what bugs me the most about these scams are the deadline deals-it says sign up ends tomorrow. when you see a glimmer of hope out there your natural reaction is to hope. maybe this was someones chance of helping thier families. maybe it was something that could have change thier lives. im glad people have sites like this one to guide thier desicions and hopefully stop them from making a bad choice. so thanks for the information
She’s in New Zealand now, and so am I – in real life! – so I guess that’s how come I found the web page about her, but my oh my she’s changed her name and her photo, though her story is the same, pretty much word for word – remarkable! In New Zealand today she’s called Melissa Johnson, and she lives in Auckland. Not sure how she’s going to deposit the US cheque shown on the web page into her NZ bank account …
And yes, as the earlier post by Nic Johnson pointed out, the ‘featured in’ or ‘as seen on’ links don’t work on the NZ page either. How ridiculously dodgy.
All the scams out here, all the B.S. jobs, just 360 degrees of hot crap and everyone wonders why people sell drugs.
Yeah, Melissa Johnson got bored with New Zealand, and like everyone else thats lived there, has moved to Australia. Seems she doesn’t like the stay at home mum scene anymore, She’ll probly make it back to the states for a trip or two, Hopefully she’ll lose her passport while she’s there.
LOL i almost signed up to this i was at the page where you have to fill your bank info and your payment and when I keep reading at the bottom you have to pay a 29 something or less cant remember per month LOLOL dude that tells you its a scam right a way I knew its too good to be true. Theres no way someone can make 7000bucks a month for only working 10-15 hours a week at home. I was so desperate almost fell for it but there are so many ways you can tell its fake or if its a scam. Shouldn’t everyone be doing it also????????????? thats right too good to be true good job scammers almost got me there!!!!!!!!.
I saw this ad and decided to look st this claim as I lost my job and was desperate to find some income. While I was being hesitant to get into this thing a WOMAN popped up and kept on pushing me to get the DECISION PACK I keept on asking her what this business is all about but she will not give out any tye of information what so ever only telling me to get the decision package for only $9.95 which I decided to try. Upon arrival of the package there wasn’t any information as to what this business was about only a man talking nothing relating to the business. I received a call from my so called Coach John who was assigned to me. Up to now nothing was mentioned about what this business is all about, I was told I had to read the five step video on the website so I readvideo one and two as I couldn’t get to three to five all that was repeated was one and two. John had called me earlier and informed me that he will call me at 10pm so we can have a phone secession around 8pm that evening he left me an email telling me that he had an appointment and he wouldn’t be able to keep our secession and that he had also noticed that I hadn’t finish listening at the video. I knew at that moment that I had been had by these people I never heard from him again.
This Business is called ON LINE BUSINESS SYSTEMS
Kelly sure moves around – my e-mail said she lives in Tujunga, California.
There is no way this is a real deal – SCAM in capital letters all the way.

Kelly Richards seems to have emigrated – she now lives in Bristol, England.
It’s amazing how seductive this ad seems to be for so many people (possibly the figure £4,397 makes the difference). I’d never even thought of working from home but I was on the point of applying for this when I put the headline plus the word ‘scam’ in a Google window. Glad I did…
No, No, No! Kelly Rishcards lives in Sydney Australia!
“Kelly Richards from Sydney never thought that she would, until curiosity got the best of her and she filled out a simple online form. Before she knew it, she discovered her secret to beating …”

Kelly Richards aka Melissa Johnson aka whatevers next is now living in Houston, TX. I better hurry and get this packet before its too late, LOL yeah ok. SCAM beware and stay a way. Always do plenty of research before giving a single dollar to any company or person for that matter.
Well… I see that Kelly Richards has now crossed the border to live here in Toronto Canada!
These scams come out at the worse economic times to prey on those who are desperate… there simply is no easy way… if an ad starts off showing the glitz and glam of potential wealth – walk away!
