1. yes, and if you look up
Google Money Master you find that while you pay $1.87 for an initial mail out, they charge your credit card around $70. a month.

3. Damn! Those comments make your hair stand on end...
and the fake page from the fake newspaper was well done if you didn't look too closely. It seems they have some other fake nwewpaper blogs out there hauling in the suckers.

What I don't understand is why Google doesn't use a few hundred thousand or so in pocket change to slam dunk these scammers using their name to steal.

4. I was wondering the same thing
some people do unwittingly fall for this type of thing and get scammed out of money they dont have.

5. I followed the links with fake information till it asked for a credit card number.
That's an obvious tipoff, but unfortunately people still fall for it.

If it looks too good to be true, it probably is a scam.
