Google Adwords Scam!

http://www.adgoogle.net/

This company is nothing to do with Google and they are propositioning individuals to spend money on Adwords.

Be warned you will most likely get ripped off if you use these services as their CC verification system is not secure.

Google have been informed about their spams too

Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.
Let me repeat... A 120 x 60 button and no more that 3 lines of DEFAULT SIZE AND COLOR text.

Indeed but the best ones always are

What better way to scam people than making a site using the EXACT same color scheme as the one you are trying to fool people into thinking you are

Wow, that is pretty damn nuts. Are they straight up stealing or are they trying to be middle men using adwords?

Well they are guarantee'ing that for $60 your Adwords campaign will run for 30 days regardless of the keywords.

Anyone with an ounce of common sense knows that $60 for a month in Adwords is unrealistic.

Their definitions of the campaign types is also a bit iffy they also claim that Google is one of their partner sites LOL
