A question about : Struggling with Scams

Hi everyone title=Smile

1st Post so please be nice lol.

I am really struggling to seperate the real comps from scam ones. I'm getting so many emails etc I don't know what is genuine and what's not.

Please can anyone help? I don't know how lol but maybe if there's certain known sites that I should avoid/block?

Also, are these test the product and keep it scams?

Many thanks in advance
Lucy

  • All over tbh as I tend to just click on things. I really need to avoid popups etc. But now they've started coming through, I'm finding it difficult to distinguish between them
  • do you comp from this site? The comps that are posted on here are generally all good and people are quick to spot if one has been posted thats not legit xx
  • I have been yes but I have been clicking on things that I probably shouldn't also. And now my email inbox is full of stuff from both genuine and scam companies so I can't tell the difference.
    I guess I'll probably just have to try and eliminate them one by one? And just block each one as I figure it out lol
  • I do understand of your frustration! as I did spend lots of time to dealing with the spam problems, one of important lesson I learned is, to set up seperate email address for competition purpose so you can keep your private email addy for your other reasons such as friend contacts, etc. you can have many email addresses as long as you like..
    Yes I know it is easy to make mistake by not to put ticks on or off, few comps required you agreed to opt in!! That is part of comps which we decide to enter or not.
