todd Posted August 30, 2004 Share Posted August 30, 2004 I like how so many people dont even give it a chance.. they just go off the basis of "if it seems too good to be true, it probably is".. for example, in the second post bonzai calls it a scam, but in his next post (4th) he says he hasnt actually seen it.. so many people are like this and are quick to call anything a scam :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bushrat Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 1. its a scam. 2. Neowin cannot control the ads that google adsense puts through, as you can see neowin uses google adsense to make money and show ads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
