Facebook users asked to beware of scammers posting advertisements claiming Facebook users can make an easy $100 by posting advertisements on their Facebook pages. Facebook users who fall for the scam or trick, will end up advertising for the scammers, but will never get paid for it. This type of free advertising is very effective for scammers, because they use it to reach thousands or even millions of potential victims without paying a dime or a dollar.
Scammers usually post their deceptive advertisements on popular advertising website Craigslist, and on Facebook.
A lot of people have been tricked into advertising for scammers for free, because they are desperately seeking new ways of making money online, like millions of other online users who have their families to feed in these tough economic times. But, it doesn’t matter how desperate you are, care should always be taken when job offers that seem too good to true are advertised online. Online users should always do their research before working or providing services for anyone online, because it is hard to tell who is legitimate or not.
