    The book isn't free. You want an email which you reserve the right to sell later.

    Post a direct link and then it will be free.

    Well ... I was born the day before you. :D

    I agree with the email if it is that good he/she could monitize his/her site without the email.

    hi reapr, the reason thr's an opt-in box is coz the free report deserves tht. its powerful stuff and all i m taking against it is an email id. well, if u had signed up, u wud know how happy my subscribers are - simply coz i scour the net for good, free "internet marketing" stuff and feed it to them everyday. u see, i am a sucker for all things free.

    The information contained in your manual is tantamount to telling
    people to steal stuff. These products are not free, and the owners
    have worked hard to produce them - they deserve to be paid for
    their efforts.

    Why is this thread still here?

    Probably a shopping cart vulnerability.

    The free report tells you how to read the html code of unencrypted paypal buttons and find the download link...

    That may be good if this report came out three years ago, but it's not helping anything now.

    Well if it's really that technique than that's old news + it's still stealing.

    Hi Spanky,

    Thank you for signing up for the Free Report - "Get Any Ebook For Free". I have attached a copy of the Free Report with this email. This report contains ONLY ONE of the many methods described in my "Fall Of The Gurus" Manual to get any ebook for free. Using the Free Report, you can get free access to the download page of any website that uses
    Paypal as the payment processor.

    BUT THERE'S A LOT MORE - The meaty stuff is in the "Fall of the Gurus" Manual which has MANY OTHER methods which you can use to get any other ebook or software (powered by Clickbank, 2Checkout, 1ShoppingCart,etc) for FREE. No wonder the Gurus are crying for mercy and bombarding me with hate mails.

    http://www.fallofthegurus.com/index1.htm

    I have also thrown in the last chapter of the manual as a surprise bonus for you. This chapter shows you how to start earning $300-400 a day starting right now. And you won't have to spend a penny on advertising or anything else. Sounds great, right? Believe me, it is.

    Well, I won't take any more of your time. You got better things to do - like read the Free Report, for starters.

    Cheers,
    Mr. Anonymous

    by the way who are you to say a $197 guru book was only worth $47? an item is worth as much as anyone is willing to pay for it and you paid $197 so guess what? it's worth $197

    The constant use of 'cud' wud' 'u' and 'coz' makes me think you are a young kid who pirated this stuff, and now trying to sell it.

    just my thoughts though.

    spam advertising on an SEO Forum filled with people who are well aware of such scams, this is just stupid. Try doing that on another forum, it won't work here. Nice cover for the book, looks real professional and I'm sure that the 1000+ other ebook selling sites copied your book cover image :rolleyes:

    I have a "free manual" for you - It's called "Spelling For Dummies".

    I have learned more on this and a few other Webmaster forums than any of those "e-books" could EVER teach.

    There are no "secrets" - this is 2007.

    no, leik he's serious! u can download things free and legally which other people have copyright to! it makes heaps of sense! lololol

    "No wonder the Gurus are crying for mercy and bombarding me with hate mails."

    Ok, when I went into this thread I thought it was someone having an idea for an open source wiki-style guide to internet marketing or something like that. Mr. Moneyonlineideas, why don't you at least explain to us how you could possibly download someone else's material for free. And legally. And why we should pay for your one.

    "I respect your privacy. I will NEVER sell, rent or share your email address. That's more than a policy, it's my personal guarantee!"

    Yeah, who needs a privacy policy anyway, after all we have your personal guarantee!

    Your right though. Those gurus DO suck. They have those long thin pages, they have those "WAIT! There's more!" bits, those fake testimonials, those opt-in free reports, the overpriced ebook, the massive "savings", telling people the price will go up. I'm glad your site doesn't have any of that *snigger*.

    EDIT: I got your free report, it's not legal, it IS stealing, it's not original, I've read it on rotteneggs.com. Any one interested in internet security should visit www.hackthissite.org

    Good luck.
