We have changed the game, in the past we have focused on exposing scams and programs that will not make you money, its time to go positive, while we will still focus on exposing scams, we feel we can better serve your needs by attempting to help you make money on the internet.
The goal of ScamCast is to bring you a product or program review every episode so that you can start making money on the internet. One thing that all these scams have in common is they are promising to help you make money on the internet. So we feel that we will just take the place of the scams and give you honest, fair, and unbiased reviews that will help take you to the next level. But do not forget we will call a scam a scam,
We hope you enjoy the new format, if you would like to be a guest on Scam Cast fire off a quick email to [email protected]. We hope in the future we can find a cohost as well so you are not just listening to my drivel
Dazzle White Profit Margins
We have went over in the past the Dazzle White scam and who runs it I do not really thing we need to get into that today but what I do want to quickly touch on is how much money they are really making.
Albert a reader who is always finding me good information and emailing it found where you can buy wholesale these teeth whitening pens with the same active ingredients as dazzle white is trying to sell, he found these pens with custom packaging for one dollar and fifty cents to three dollars and fifty cents.
So just what is Dazzle White trying to sell you these pens for? I believe the last number i seen was eighty seven dollars. Thats one hell of a markup. In fact if we bought 500 pens at three dollars and fifty cents we would end up paying seventeen hundred and fifty dollars and then sell them like they are doing for eighty seven dollars we would stand to make about fourty one thousand dollars per five hundred pens. Since dazzle is going to autoship you these pens chances are they are not having a problem getting rid of inventory.
These people are making a ton of money and can afford all the fines that the FTC puts on them. The only way to stop that kind of profit margin is to shut the business down. But whats the chances of that happening ?
How these scams travel the internet
Since affiliate marketing is so prevelant and how several people I know make money, hell I even make money with affiliate marketing it makes a great target for scams, We went over affiliate marketing a little in episode 1 so if you need a quick touch up on what affiliate marketing is I recommed you listen to it.
Affiliate marketing from the product producer side is a very cheap way to get advertising and sell product, most affiliate marketing is what is called CPA or cost per action, that means they do not pay an affiliate unless a lead or a sale is created. These CPA offers are crazy I have seen some that pay out fourty dollars or more per “free trial” that is signed up, unethical affiliates jump on these because they will and do convert at a high rate
These unethical affiliates normally come from taking a CPA course online that will tell them to create these fake blogs, and spam craigslist and other methods of so called marketing they only care about the conversion.
What this means is the scams spread like a virus and there is no way to inocculate, we have seen this around all types of these scams, Dazzle White has CPA offers, Google Treasure Chest and other Google Scams have also used these, we have seen offers from Pacific WebWorks involved and in some cases I think Pacific WebWorks is using other CPA offers to extend its profit margin. These are deplorable but can not be stoped easily
We have seen some new policies from the FTC recently about disclosure in affiliate marketing that will require some of these fake blogs to either come down, provide disclosure which i have seen several of them do or run the risk for a eleven thousand dollar fine. Notice how the affiliate gets fined and not the company for the crappy products. But not all affiliate marketing is for these types of products and not all affiliate marketers are unethical.
This is just how they spread so quickly, remember if you are going to get into affiliate marketing if you would not buy the product or use the offer, dont offer it to your lists, blogs, or other methods of marketing. Save face, and be smart about your marketing and become an ethical marketing genius, you can make the same money and still sleep at night.
