SCAMS FROM THE MSM


THE SUNDAY SCAM

JOURNAL ENTRY, 22/11/2015, 08:31 hrs., PST, Sunday, my place, 3°C cloudy, Mood 40/60

Just got suckered into reading a stock promotion that was too good to be true, it was trolling for suckers for a new form of energy supposed to last the world for 36,000 years with all the major players in the energy picture falling all over themselves to invest and create the sort of monopoly that fossil fuels now command and offering the suckers an investment opportunity not unlike the potential of the Rathskeller’s creation of Standard Oil.

It was your standard Carnival pitch to ensnare the “rubes” in the latest snake oil cure for everything. The usual bait and switch where you entrust a third party to invest in this phantom company, use your credit cards sucker, and we will all skip along on the yellow brick road to the Wizard of Oz.

I have to say, although the whole exercise was a waste of time, it was at least entertaining. It was something I got off the BBC news feed and which, like most of the MSM, have become shills for business scams.
