Da SMH, Doin' Her Part Ta Stop Da Scammin', Yeah!

Back about a week ago I was hitting random blogs (a terrible waste of time, btw) when I come across one entitled PayPal Profits. I didn't notice the title at first, otherwise I would have skipped right by it.

It featured a photo of a woman of about my age who also claimed to have two small children - at first glance a "mommy" blog like mine. One post, just put up, acting all innocent about a PayPal pyramid scheme and saying that she usually didn't go for things like this, but maybe this one would be worth a try.

So I put up a comment, in which I said that I would give her the benefit of the doubt, although I probably shouldn't, and directed her and other readers to a website about such schemes (very good, btw).

My next line was: "Yes, kiddies, fraud is indeed illegal." And then I wrote that I would be watching to see if the author deleted the comment and that I would be slamming them if they did. Well, I checked today, and the whole blog was down.

I'm a little disappointed because I should have hit her profile to see what other blogs she had. I expect she turns out quite a few.

I hate scams, I hate scammers, and I *especially* hate scammers that intentionally try to disguise their scamming.
