If you read my post yesterday (about stupid me being scammed in Berlin) and watched the video I gave you a link to, I hope you liked it. 

Because it turns out I was actually pretty lucky....

It turns out that this is quite a common scam in Europe and that there are lots of variations. All designed to prey on people visiting a strange land and on their emotions and sympathies. 

It also seems that very often it also includes getting your pockets picked and/or valuables stolen as your attention is distracted by the deaf mute petition thing.

Thankfully that didn’t happen to us. Because we do know some of the ropes:

I carry my valuable camera but on a very secure strap which I also wind round my wrist when out and about.

We leave most of our money in the hotel safe so don’t have a lot on us to be stolen. 

In my time online - before discovering SFM and DEA - I saw a lot of very clever internet based scams in action. 

Luckily I didn’t personally get involved in any of them but I know people who did. 

So I guess I was a bit of a “savvy surfer” by then - able to tell the difference between a rip off and a genuine business. 

Suffice to say - Like attracts like.

SFM attracts smart, hardworking people of integrity and will be around for a very long time (already much longer than most internet business opportunities or training programmes I’ve seen)

Scammers attract gullible, unrealistic dreamers with the get rich quick mindset - neither the scammers or their victims will last long in this industry. 

Only people and companies that offer serious value, real, in demand education and business products and complete transparency will be around in 10, 15, 20 years.

And nothing can be more transparent than offering a complete test drive of what’s on offer - no tricks, no scams and no money up front.

Like SFM’s free trial offer which you can check out here.

Cheers!
