On average, I receive 15 Internet schemes and offers on a daily basis in my inbox. "Get paid to read emails", "Get paid to view advertisements", "Internet investment with high performance", and many more I don’t care to remember.     
  Imagine that these email messages are sent to millions of Internet users daily and it only takes a one per cent response to give these companies their millions of dollars. Some of the common ones include:     
  Get Paid To Surf     
  You have to log on to the website an x number of times daily or download a special browser to their desktop, and read the ads or view the banners displayed. The website company will charge the advertisers and reward the members who complete the quota.     
  Pitfall     
  It takes you ages to complete the quota to be eligible for the payout scheme, if you can ever accomplish it. By the time you get your payout, the amount will be deducted of administrative charges (which sometimes can be about 20 per cent of your total payout). The worst scenario would be to have the website close down before any member receives their payout.     
  One of the most famous websites for advertising "Get Paid to Surf" was You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login. Unfortunately, the business folded despite being one of the fastest growing websites in terms of numbers.     
  Mutations of this scheme include getting paid to receive SMS,You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login, getting paid to read emails, and getting paid to listen to online radio ads.     
  However,You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login, if you wish to try out this money-making scheme, you should first check on the following:     
  How much will you be paid for reading each email?   What is your responsibility other than reading emails? (e.g. some schemes would require you to click to a website linked within the email)   Can a Malaysian participate? Some schemes are restricted to US citizens only.   What is the minimum amount of payout?   How long will it take for you to earn the minimum payout? Remember you are incurring charges for your Internet access and phone bills for reading the emails.   How is payment to be made? If payment is made by US cheque, then a significant part of it would be eaten by bank charges.       
  If you receive an email like this,     
  Dear Friend,You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login,  You can earn a lot of money in the next several months sending  e-mail.     
  Don’t count on it.     
  Money Laundering     
  This is a scheme that has been around for many years. From its early days of letters and faxes, it has now become high tech, with email as the popular choice.     
  The scheme tells you that the sender (most likely from a country in the African continent) has a large sum of money, seeks your assistance in transferring this amount into your bank account,You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login, and if successful,You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login, you will be offered an x percentage of this amount.     
  Here’s an email I received recently:   
  DEAR SIR
