Scamming the Scammer

There are scammers everywhere now days.  The call your home, and invade your inboxes. They pop up as ads all over the internet.  I usually just ignore them, but I am so tired of them and cleaning my inbox of them.  All the promises of tons of money with little or no work.  It never ends.
I often wonder why people would choose to live a life as a scammer.  It may be easy to take peoples' money, but is it worth it?  They choose a life of dishonesty and loneliness.  No matter how careful these people are, they will get caught and lose everything they ever had.  Can you just imagine your spouse getting arrest for being a con man (or woman) or scammer?  I would never trust that person again.  It would break my heart, yes, but it wouldn't be worth ruining my reputation over it.  Even being married to a person like that would ruin my reputation to some degree.  My friends would stop trusting me and probably anyone that knew me.  Do they not realize how selfish this is, or have they just stopped caring? 
What these scammers don't realize, is that they are not just ruining peoples' lives, but are ruining their own in the long run.
A few years back the latest greatest scam going around what the "You won X amount of dollars in some foreign country, but in order to give it to you, you have a pay a "duty" of X amount."  Not sure what they named this one.  Knowing this scam was going around and just waiting for my turn to mistakenly answer the phone I was prepared with my own little "scam" just for them.

Vlog #3 : What Are We Doing Here? | Solivagus of PWG

Hey All - It's Solivagus (Drew De Jesus) here, your friendly admin floater who just goes around doing stuff.  I noticed this question posed on facebook "What is this group for" or some such.  Don't quote me.  Even though there are quotes.

In any case I took it upon my (pretty) self to put my (beautiful) face on a video and explain to you guys the difference between this place and TOS (the other site).  I don't wanna point fingers (bubblews) but sometimes it's hard to avoid naming (bubblews) names when it comes down it.

There's a difference between what we're doing here.  And I hope that this video explains it well.

Thank you for watching and continuing to be the most impressive upstart blog I've seen in a long time.  It's not long until we all stop posting introductory posts and start getting the hang of it all - providing a steady stream of content to the masses, who YEARN for knowledge!

I have also seen some worry about whether or not involvement here will result in your being abolished from the pay system of bubblews.  IF that were the case...

Let's say it was true... that they are going to black mark us all... worst case scenario is realized...

well...

Is that really the kind of organization you want to belong to?  Not I, said the fly to the spider.

Chew on it,
Drew De Jesus

War is an ugly thing.

The country of Venezuela is the latest country to fall victim of the ugliness of war. Earlier today I posted a poem on Bubblews in memory of a good friend who went to visit family there and got caught in the middle of the events that have taken place in that country for the past few days. She and her baby are missing since Sunday and we can only hope and pray that where-ever she might be she is safe and sound. We don't want to give up hope because that is all we have left to cling on to asides from the memories of time spent with her. The injustice of war takes over another country yet again.

War is a very ugly thing, yet more and more the world is turning to war to solve their political and social problems without realizing the many innocent lives they are ending with their actions.

I know I haven’t been much active here lately; I’m slowly starting to do so, for I am handling too many personal things at the moment. But if you are interested on reading the poem, you can find it here

Redemption

For the fool, the world is not enough. For the wise, only peace is priceless. I have written myself into a corner many times for my ideals, but I have brought down far greater than you with only a few words.

I am not burdened by such weaknesses as pride or dignity. I am a pauper yet I possess the envy of leaders for my ability to write the words they would speak as their own and inspire other great leaders into action.

Why would leaders require the words of writers to inspire the hearts and minds of people? Is it not the heart of the writer that felt those words? Is it not the mind of the writer that conveyed that passion? Perhaps in this manner, great leaders could only be described as the puppets of writers. Our words from your lips without the need for a string.

I am starved of hope with only my passion for words to sustain me. Like the taste of wine, words are only exquisite when you know the difference vintage and deception. A word bears wrath like no other when spoken passionately. A word carries its own power. Alive, a love and death. To misuse a word is the only blasphemy left to us. To speak a word in vain. To take a word and deceitfully manipulate its power... is unforgivable.

Redemption means the action of regaining or gaining possession of something in exchange for payment, or clearing a debt. Redemption also means the action of saving or being saved from sin, error, or evil. "Redemption" is a word I never use when writing for someone else. The origin of the word "redemption" required blood as the only means of payment. In the literal context of the word, only blood can redeem a debt... can make one clean of sin, error or evil.

Having never met me, seen my face or heard my voice... would you believe me if I told you they all would recognize my words?

Oh boy, I'm exhausted!

Well, that's it. I know how to get onto the front page, and after a day of doing a lot of liking and commenting and clicking and cleaning out my profile comments, I made it there.

That's Bubblews, of course. I'm always on the front page here with every new post.

I'm starting a series there about getting free or cheap tickets on airlines, coupled with how to achieve elite flyer status.

You know Ryan Bingham in Up in the Air? Well, that's kind of like my life. I do a lot of flying.

Anyway. I just thought I'd share the news, because obviously I can't write an exubilant post at Bubblews.

I'll just bask in the glory there for a bit before I write the next in the series.

Mud is Mud

Tis the Season for Mud.  I love snow, I love rain.  I hate mud, but there is no way to have one and not the other.  I don't like muddy floors, it barely have to time to mop them 2-3 times a week, much less 1-2 times a day.
What is with kids and mud?  They love it.  They stomp around in it all day and it never bothers them.  I can't handle mud even being on my shoes.  The next storm we get, snow or rain, I am going to be prepared!  I will tape down towels everywhere.  Or maybe I will just buy the kids each their own little mop and tell them to clean up their own messes.
I really am looking forward to spring, I just am dreading the mud that will probably come along with it.
I would like to share a little poem about mud.  I wrote this when I had just about had enough and was about to lose my mind.  I love being able to speak what it on my mind and not have anyone judge me for it.  That is what is so great about sites like this and Bubblews.
Here it is:
Mud, Mud, Mud

Just call me Numbers

When I started out on Bubblews, I also started some spreadsheets in Numbers - that's the Apple spreadsheet product - and I've been reasonably religious in keeping them up to date.

I can make a steady $50 redemption each week, and my figures are just under $1.00 a post. I write more, I get paid more, I guess.

I also look at other writers.

I see a few making over ten dollars a day, and one making over twenty. There's probably a lot more, but I only keep figures for those who catch my eye. I'm somewhere in the middle.

Turning to my stats, I find that over my career I have roughly 15 000 views, 5 000 likes and 1 500 comments. That's reasonably standard. Each figure a third of the one above.

Given the amount of time I spend writing and connecting, I can see that there's a limit, and I'm not all that far from it. I can tweak my style a little, but realistically, Bubblews is not going to be a great earner for me.

However, I noticed a few regular posters whose views/likes ratio is more like ten than three. Athena and javaman74 stand out. Javaman74 averages 8 posts a day, $2.70 a post and $21.50 a day.

Not to be sneezed at. So where are all those pageviews coming from? They must be coming from outside the Bubblews community, and the way to get those is to load up on SEO. That's my educated guess.

SEO keywords, social media and similar. They look like good ways to leverage writing effort.

Any ideas?

Solivagus on Bubblews : 2/15/14

My Bubblews Posts for the Day

by solivagus

i'm giving you wood

1. The Start of Day 26 | Nightmares

    Concerning the horrible dream I had prior to waking last night, and an open letter to the ex-boyfriends who were in it.  BOTH of them, for some reason.

2. Where's Solivagus? REN FEST! 

    Concerning how excited I was to get up and out of bed and go to Ren Fest, which as You can see from future postings... didn't go as planned.

3. Review of PicLab App from iTunes Store 

   Not much to this one, it's a review for a fun app.  If you have trouble finding things to use as images for your posts, and you don't want to use something from my blog, this is a good app.

 

4. Sweeten Healthy Eating with Honey and Cinnamon

    Self explanatory but goes into examples of why you should and how I use them.

5. Why do you scare yourself at night?

    You ever wonder?  Well wonder no more, this comprehensive answer will encourage you to put the monster thoughts away.

6. Update on the RenFest Thing.

    When buyer's remorse settles in, what do you do to cope?

7.  Straight People are a Disgrace to Marriage

    I started watching Bridezillas, and that was my first mistake...

8. I Listen to the Music of the Spheres

    This phrase represents the 'inaudible music which is celestial in origin'.  If that's not confusing enough.

9. I'm on YouTube Now!

    And the best part is, I'm clothed.  At least that's what Spartanmom says LOL

10.  A silly song review about Gwen Guthrie

    She sang this amazing song about being a straight up hooker and I applaud her for that.  And I hope one day I can be that proud of being a hooker.

I hope you enjoy my articles, but more importantly, I hope you fricken read them and like them and comment on them, duh.

Solivagus,

Drew

Pumpkin Cupcakes

So after the holidays I had a bunch of canned pumpkin left over.  I have been finding new ways to use it up. Why I had so much in the first place is a mystery to me, maybe I was supposed to make way more pies or something. Maybe my husband thought we were feeding an army instead of just the family.

I found a delicious recipe and used up some extra pumpkin. Here is the recipe:

Pumpkin Cupcakes
I only use whole wheat and natural cane sugar etc in my baking so these are actually delicious and healthy.
Now that you have the recipe you have no excuse to not make a batch and share them with everyone you know.  I am sure that you probably have some canned pumpkin hiding in your cupboards as well.

If you are a pumpkin fan, you will not be disappointed.  Enjoy, they really are tasty.

Tale of the Brave Martyr Bubbler

I was just about to log off and settle in for a good movie tonight when I noticed something interesting. But first a bit of back story is called for to color the drama at play.

I have seen review articles of other pay sites that were allowed by Bubblews so I posted a review article of our Preferred Writers Group giving my connections another earning opportunity. My review was innocent enough, considering we aren't in competition with anyone and our admins work for no pay except what we earn ourselves from page views on our own articles and posts like you.

Also, I have seen other high earning Bubblers posting links to their own blogs, (which is what we are) on their every post at Bubblews. And even defending their right to do so. They are allowed to carry on without so much as a raised eyebrow from the Bubble watchdogs. Now here is the cute portion of my tale.

My review of Preferred Writers Group was yanked from the Bubblews community, but not before generating a near firestorm of interest resulting in the numbers of members we have today. Bubblers began asking on my profile about our new little .blogspot and even a few resourceful bubblers among you found me on Facebook. This could be a great article if it ended here.

I was not sent any emails, any warnings or notifications of any sort of any rules I had violated. They didn't delete my account and I am able to continue to earn them an average of $7.00 per post in page views. I haven't been paid by Bubblews in 2 redeems now, so they are literally earning their 50% and mine as well. In good faith, I continue to post small offerings at Bubblews not for the money, but for the nearly 1400 connections I have made there. They are the most wonderful and engaging people I have met in a long while. I'd miss them, I guess. This would be a great article if it ended here.

A brave bubbler has re-posted my Preferred Writers Group review and entitled it, "Preferred Writter's View"! Laurie would have a literal fit at seeing my article published with the TITLE misspelled. She will have a fit knowing I've been counterfeited. But I don't think this is an act of plagiarism in the typical sense. The Bubbler is a connection of mine. Surely he would have to know the post would hit my notification log. Could this be a brave martyr bubbler picking up the fallen PWG banner to carry on the good message? Sadly, he has too few connections to get the word out as well as we could have. Still, plagiarism IS the best form of flattery.

But whether it is a brave bubbler martyr, or merely a dimwitted copy/paste bandit, he is treading dangerously. He is tempting the wrath of &Arvind for resurrecting a post he had marked for death; as well as our very own Ms. Laurie for copying the work of one of her writers. He will most likely never see the inside of PWG. Laurie takes her job seriously and plagiarism of any sort, even for a noble cause, is unacceptable.

Allow Me to Reintroduce Myself!

Solivagus has Entered the Building.

Don't be afraid, far worse things have happened.  But let it be known that my presence here shall be the penultimate of my artistic expression.  I read in the introduction post here that there is no restriction on what we may post about and I plan on taking full advantage of that fact!  Sometimes other sites can make me feel so stifled that it becomes a job in and of itself not to allow the pressure to feel like another job!  And I didn't become a work from home writer so that I could feel like I have a job!  No ma'am.

So!  Who am I?  My name is Drew De Jesus, I am a writer, actor, entertainer, dog lover, Aries, and I'm a hip old granny who can hip hop bebop and yo ho make a wicked cup of cocoa.  I have my own blog on blogger here that I just started, I won't promote it until there's content.  What I plan to provide there, and maybe even here, will be creative commons photographs that I'll take and that you'll be allowed to use on any post you'd like wherever.  

I think providing free blogging content for creative individuals is a wonderful way to assist one another in socking it to the corporate hounds which sniff at our heels and try to make money off of us.  Uh uh, pay us.  That's how it works.

In any case, I'm 28 for now with a 29th birthday coming up in April, and I look forward to connecting with all of you.  Well, most of you.  Wink.

By the way, all my permalinks will be /solivagus#.html, where # represents the number post of that day.  

For example, this post will be preferredwriters.blogspot.com/2014/02/solivagus1.html - this way it will be easy for people to sort through my posts in order.

Solivagus,
Drew De Jesus

Preferred Writers Group: Earn While You Socialize With Friends

To Join! Send us a valid Gmail address to receive your invite.
Contact me at eve.orion@yahoo.com or
add me on Facebook at www.facebook.com/jaid.orion to get an invite!

Preferred Writers Group is a new Social Network Community much like Facebook, except you earn 100% of your generated revenue for valid page views on your every post/comment/share. Your post can be as short as 150 words, & you can post about anything you wish. A short paragraph is all that is needed for search engines to recognize your post & earn you organic traffic. This is the only reason we require the minimum 150 word count. In fact, this brief message is slightly longer than the minimum required post on PWG. You can also write detailed full length articles & earn from them as you would on your other revenue share sites such as Bubblews. What makes us different at PWG is that the admins are writers as well. To earn we must gain page views like everyone else. Your earnings are your own & shared with no one.

PWG Offers Aggressive New Earnings Model

Post by Eveorion

Earn 100% of Your Page View Earnings
Preferred Writers Group offers writers total earnings potential, back linking, unprecedented freedom, transparency & 100% of their earnings on every valid page view.

How It Works
The Preferred Writers Group community enables our users to engage and interact with each other and earn 100% of their ad revenue from valid page views. Yes, you read that correctly. Writers earn 100% of their generated revenue from each valid page view. You will get paid your full earnings for every view, comment, and social media share toward your posts.

How Can We Do This? 
Simple. Staff/Admins are writers also. To earn here we ALL have to post and earn page views alongside  our valued writers. No one is above this rule. It doesn't get any fairer than that. Join PWG & start earning your 100%!

Across The Board

No generated revenue will ever be deducted from the writers' earnings. So all additional revenue generated from other than valid pages views goes back into the community account to ensure you NEVER receive a missed/late payment. This overall earnings reserve will be clearly displayed in real time on your Earnings Tab located on the top left of every page.

Earn While Commenting
Posting is not the only way to earn here. Members can also increase their overall page views from previously submitted posts by interacting with each other. Commenting on posts increases the overall page views and thus increases your overall generated earnings when they reciprocate by leaving a comment on your posts.

No Restrictive Policies
You are free to write about anything you wish. We only ask that you follow the guidelines set by our sponsors.

- 150 word minimum per post
- Original grammatically correct content with approved images.
- Cite your sources when posting about news stories or events.
- No use of bots or IP manipulation to generate false page views
.

Remember, these tricks won't earn revenue from sponsors and thus will never earn you anything here anyway. So play fair.

Backlink To Your Other Paysites

You are welcome to link to your other revenue earning sites, posts, blogs etc. with one exception. Please do not post affiliate or referral links. It's annoying to readers and to be honest, you aren't getting paid much to do that crap anyway. Your legitimate earning ventures are always welcomed.

Register For Free

Sign up for a free account with PWG by sending a valid Gmail address where you wish to receive your invite. There are several ways to contact PWG:

(1) Email us at eve.orion@yahoo.com with your valid Gmail address.

(2) Simply request a friend invite via Facebook at www.facebook.com/jaid.orion & message me your valid Gmail address for invite.

(3) Leave a comment on this post including your valid Gmail address requesting invite.

You will receive your invite within 24 hours and you can start sharing with our community!

Fully Interactive Support

The Blogger user interface is fairly straight forward and easy to learn. You can use the Blogger help page for detailed html scripting of your posts. Your questions regarding earnings will never be sent to some spam box. They come directly to me! Contact me anytime for anything either via email or my Facebook page.

(1) Email me directly at eve.orion@yahoo.com

(2) Message me on Facebook at www.facebook.com/jaid.orion

Building Our Community

Our Community is just starting out so it may be 30 days before you begin to see earnings if you are just getting in on the ground floor. But as we grow in numbers and generate more revenue, a working payroll account will be established to ensure each writer has funds available on a weekly basis. You will be able to see our real-time earnings via our Earnings Tab located on the top left of every page. And as our community grows, each writer's individual available earnings will increase incrementally. Your account will ALWAYS have funds available. It's up to you to earn your full potential. This ensures you will NEVER experience a late/missed payment!

Transparent Earnings Tab

You will notice at the top left of every page our Earnings Tab. This is a real time accounting of our monthly progress and available earnings per member for the month. This tab includes:

-         Our total members to date

-         Our real time monthly earnings

-         AdRate/1000 views (RPM)

-         Potential earnings each member has available. Example: ($100/10 mbrs = $10.00 available to you)

-         The rollover sum is the unclaimed earnings generated from last month.

About Rollover Earnings
All generated income must be earned from valid page views only with no exceptions. Additional revenue generated from organic traffic, etc. are carried over to the writers’ account each month to ensure we always have enough to pay our valued members!

Rollover Earnings / total members = available monthly earnings payroll
$1000 / 10 members = $100 available to each member

Analytics

You will get paid for every valid page view based on our Google Analytics Reports... Period. If it counts to our Advertisers it counts for you and you get 100% of your page view earnings. No questions asked.

Example:

Total Valid Page Views:             100,000

Average earnings/page view:      $0.008 x 100,000 = $800.00

Your Valid Page Views:              5000

Your Earnings:                          5000 x .008 = $40.00

The average Rate/1000 views fluctuates and can be (RPM)

Getting Paid

As mentioned we are a new community so payouts will begin on a monthly basis to start. Once we build up our earnings, we will move to a bi-weekly payout. Then finally payouts will be sent automatically each week. Our progress will be posted on our Earnings Tab located at the top left of every page for full transparency.

Your Dashboard

You can review the views of your posts as well as those of fellow members via the "Dashboard". Your Dashboard can be easily located on your top toolbar. From your Dashboard you can:

-         Create a New Post

-         Review/edit your posts

-         See your current number of page views/comments
