Spam email, who likes it?!

Email spam is communications that you don’t want that arrive in your in box. Do you remember the first time you received spam unwanted email? I bet you opened up the message and read it through a time or two like most everyone else. You might have believed what they were saying or maybe you forgot all about it. Then another spam email came and then another.

More than a half of all emails being sent out are spam…. Spam emails are communications that you don’t want and they try to trick you. Now you are pretty good with detecting spam emails. Or maybe you have software filter out spam for you. Spammer-type people are keenly aware of this decline in spam acceptance over the last couple of years, and they have been searching into new ways to put their products and personal agendas in front of us using deceitful and deceptive practices. Just like some politicians they try hide what they are really doing by blaming others.

Spammers’ latest craze is spamming their message through search engines using their web sites or other people’s web sites. You ask how? Imagine you are interested in finding balanced information about Purina dog food. You would probably log onto a search engine, type in the dog food name and press submit. And nearly instantly, you would find thousands and thousands of pages full of links.. But what one would you click? Probably the first one, because you think this one would be the most relevant, right? Not necessarily true any longer.

Spammers over the last couple years have found out how to manipulate search engine rankings and where their websites appear on your search page. The first URL might be the most popular and have the best information about Purina products but it might also be the person who “cheats the best”. The cheater’s, deceivers reward for cheating is getting your attention. That is the reward for email spammers/cheaters too.

For the most part their websites look just like non-fraud web sites. Because of Google’s popularity, it is the prime candidate for manipulation. I believe the behavior of these unethical people jeopardizes the fabric of Google’s search integrity. These people are tying to trick an unsuspecting search public. Their intent is to manipulate the search process when innocent and interested people are attempting to find accurate information. They are using deception, bluff, scam, dirty tricks, misdirection and cheating. These actions defraud the public and Google. And this is the exact reason I am starting this blog. It’s my mission to ALERT you when I see web sites and people behaving very, very badly. Welcome to Google Fraud Alert.
