Recognizing a True Online Guru (Contender) from a Fake (Pretender): Preventing Online Fraud

Since the proliferation of the niche ‘make easy money online’ a lot of charlatans have taken this opportunity to reap many un suspecting individuals of their hard earned money, promising to deliver to them easy systems that will enable them make easy money online with no active participation or not even doing any thing at all, but sit and watch as the dollars roll into their bank accounts. I find it really funny that in these information age where information abound every where; from the internet to the media (electronic and print), from oral to written, that people could still fall for their gimmicks and pay dearly by losing part or all of their money, a price they pay for being greedy and lazy. How ever, it has been noted that approximately 97 percent of all online money niches are fraud: and as such one needs to be careful while carrying out online transactions these days. Having said this, I’ll like to take out time to list some possible online fraud, some from other people’s exper

Meeting the Millennium Development Goals: Information Technology as a tool for development and Economic Emancipation

As customary to my write ups, I try to reflect on sundry issues as it concerns Nigeria and the rest of the developing (sounding cynical; underdeveloped) economies. As we are still struggling to catch up with the rest of the world mostly the West on every issue that regards development of values. Laying credence to this fact can be seen in the way we use the internet, the GSM communication system and every other innovation that is Information Technology based, Now back to the issue that gave rise to this write up, the Millennium Development Goals (MDG), the Millennium Development Goals are sets of eight point Agenda aligned by the United Nations to see it’s underdeveloped members with a low Human Development Index (HDI) and low per capita income (as most of these countries live an average of a dollar a day) to become developed by the target year 2015 .The motion was adopted by 149 leaders from different parts of the Globe and adopted by 189 countries in the year 2000. These agendas or
MAXIMISING YOUR GOD GIVEN POTENTIALS ONLINE: MY EXCERPTS "We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." Thomas Jefferson (1743 - 1826) U.S President . Every person; black (Negro), white (Caucasian), occidental or oriental are born with a certain trait or innate capabilities that distinguishes him/her from the others. However discovering these potentials could be tasking and might take several years or even eternity to discover. Most people live their lives imitating others and as such find it relatively difficult to discover them selves and their innate abilities oblivious of the fact that "you can only be you" . It is never wrong to have a role model or an icon to emulate; but it is wrong to live your role model. For example pop star Michael Jackson’s role model was James Brown of blessed memory who wa
The Nigerian internet estate: the myths, facts and the reality II (Google ad sense) This article is a sequel to the other piece posted on this blog, and this article will be incomplete if I don’t make mention of this very formidable online money making opportunity that has enriched many netpreneurs world wide and Nigeria is not left out in this. The program is owned by google.com one of the largest web portal worth about $174.83 billion, and it is currently the biggest media company in the world. It is bigger than notables like Time Warner, the company which owns Time Magazine, CNN & America Online; it is bigger than Viacom, the owners of MTV and Paramount Pictures. In fact, Google is worth more than all the companies quoted in the Nigerian Stock Market combined! This includes Mobil, OANDO, Nigerian Breweries, Zenith and all the other banks (combined!). A single Google.com share costs more than $450 and it is projected to reach $600 a piece sometime next year - that's more than
The Nigerian internet estate: the myths, facts and the reality I (online FOREX trading) As a follow up to my previous posts on this blog, I’ll continue to assert the fact that Nigeria is a force to be reckoned with as regards every known endeavor on the face of this planet called Earth, and the internet is no exception, it is left for the rest of the world most especially the United States to fathom this cold hard fact out. Well I would have titled this piece ‘the online conspiracies of the west against Nigeria’ well that would sound cynic and inane. It will look as we are beggars at the rich man’s table waiting for crumbs that falls off his table; when we are kings in the making. However, it has become imperative that we will take on destiny instead of waiting lazily for it to come beckoning at us. But do you know one thing my friend? Your destiny cannot come to you except you shrug off the ashes of defeat, rise to your feet, and then take what rightly belongs to you. Sorry if I have
LEGITIMATE WAYS OF MAKING MEGA BUCKS ONLINE; THE NIGERIAN EXPERIENCE At first I thought it was a huge joke as many Nigerians have been made to believe that scamming or perhaps 419 as many would call it is the only officially recognized way to make easy money online : making money online this way (though I never tried it, even when it almost became a trend) is the hardest, toughest and most time consuming money making exercise, however, those involved in this sad and unfortunate melee are yet to make this discovery; those who have, have chickened out. To be frank with you I’m still a green horn as regards making legitimate money online, but yet I can attest to the fact that legitimate and easy money online opportunities abound: but majority of those involved in this evil scheme (419) are yet to re-train their minds and instincts to believe this well acknowledged fact, besides, their 'income' is not steady and they live in constant fear of being caught by the authorities. Perhap
