Take care of advertising scamming!
by Wincer Song Founder, Creative Product Designer
=========================================
Hello,
I represent XXXXXX and I would like to share our upcoming campaign with you. We are planning to start our longterm advertising campaign for XXXXXX within USA, Canada and other English-speaking countries. CPM based campaign is what we are looking for.
Our target audience are women who like online shopping and I hope you can assist us reaching them.
Could you please let me know if you have available inventory as well as if you work with medium-sized budgets ($$10-20KK monthly)? Any reply would be appreciated.
Thank you,
Danielle Brown

Don't trust them, they probably put virus code on your site!
You may get the similar email like that one.
1. They represent a BIG company.
2. They tell you they have a budget aout ($10k 0 $20k monthly)
3. They want to put iframe code on your website.
If you receive email like it, don't trust them and never reply to them!

 lol, you are so right. That is an excellent point. There are more and more scams these days and it is amazing what some of these people are able to do. I would recommend not opening emails from people you don't know. I know it sounds a little paranoid, but often times if you even open an email like the one stated above, it will spam your entire mailing list with the same message. This happens from time to time even with people you do know because of that. All I know is that if you have a contact list on your email account and you care about that contact list, be careful what emails you are opening. Jul 23rd 2011 00:27 |

 Procurement OfficerA scam occurs when a program or a business misrepresents or makes promises that they do not keep. Use your own good judgment when responding to offers of easy money! If the offer appears too good to be true, it probably is. Jul 25th 2011 03:26 |
