CoryGetsCash.com – or Curren$y?

"Cory" of CoryGetsCash.com made quite an entrance when he posted in the discussion about the Make Money Posting Links on Google Scam.

Note: Be sure to check the photo's of "Cory"'s blue Audi in this blog post to find out why I called this post "CoryGetsCash.com – or Curren$y?"

Good ol' "Cory" of CoryGetsCash.com really won my heart when he posted the following messages in that discussion:

"I made money off doin' it. It's not my fault your to stupid to figure out how to really make money like me. I get paid!!!!!" – Cory of CoryGetsCash

"Cory is paid!!! Don't hate me cause you ain't me." – Cory of CoryGetsCash

"Paul, you really are sad… You posted a link to google images FAIL!!! LOL i get paid you don't, end of story."

However, when I replied to Cory of CoryGetsCash.com with:

"Well, Cory, I posted a link to Google images, because most of the images on your site were likely stolen and I didn't want to perpetuate the offense.

Here's the image with head chopped off:

I guess I was "sad" enough for the National Consumers League to use much of my write-up of Google Money Tree in their write-up here:

Google Money Tree – Bitter Fruit for Consumers.

Of course the Texas Attorney General filed charges against them now

And for 20/20 (I was tired and put DateLine originally), the Sydney Morning Herald, and NPR's MarketPlace to use me as a resource must make me pathetic.

Of course there are more enforcement actions to come, but unless your one of the more successful affiliates, they'll likely ignore you and you'll be fine.

In the meantime, you can sharpen your skills in trying to circumvent the law by boning up on the Federal Trade Commission's Policy Statement on Deception here.

Oh, by the way, I do make money. The reason I can spend so much time at this site is because I've developed numerous automated systems and have 4 people working for me and several partnerships, including a company that got $500,000 in investment money recently – not a ton, but if you understand how real business and the nature of early round investing works it would make sense to you."

Cory of CoryGetsCash mysteriously disappeared from the discussion. Which got me to looking more closely at his site as well as some of the other sites hosted on the same I.P. address.

Now, I'm not sure if he's responsible for all the activity going on with the OTHER sites on the same I.P. address, but there are some REALLY interesting things going with them.

But let's start with CoryGetsCash.com first since he wants you to buy into his idea that you can "easily" make money "just posting links on Google".

Cory must have real self image problems since he's using photos of the famous rapper Curren$y on the CoryGetsCash.com blog.

Take a look at the following two pix (once again I cropped them to avoid perpetuate the offense of using potentially stolen photos):
