In the last month or so there has been a huge increase in online advertising for various money making systems known as "Fast Twitter Profits", "Twitter Cash" and "Twitter Cash Machine", all claiming that you can earn thousands of dollars every month simply by posting "tweets" and text ads on the popular online social networking giant, Twitter. If you click on one of these ads, you are taken to what looks like an online newspaper detailing the personal success story of someone using one of these Twitter Cash systems. So, what's the real story? Can a little chick-a-dee with no internet business experience really hunt and peck their way to untold riches with a Fast Twitter Profits System or is it just another scam designed to steal your hard earned cash?



Well, after doing a few minutes of research on Google, my very strong suspicions were confirmed. There are actually dozens of people with these online newspaper style sites telling their Twitter Profits rags-to-riches story. And, unfortunately, all of the stories are identical, word for word. The only thing that differs is the name and picture of the person telling the story.




Having confirmed that the personal success stories were fake, I did a little further digging and discovered that the whole Twitter Cash system is a scam.



Here's how the scam works. After the scammer tells their Twitter Profits success story, they tell you to click to order your Starter Kit (only $1.95 for shipping!) so that you too can earn $10,000 plus a month in Twitter Cash.



Upon clicking to order the Twitter Profits kit, you are taken to another website where you complete an order form and enter your credit card details to cover that little $1.95 shipping charge.



Here is where the big rip-off starts.



As it turns out, the "free" Twitter Profits kit offer is really just a seven day trial, after which you will be charged nearly $50 every month until you cancel your participation in the program! (So, really, that little $1.95 "shipping charge" had nothing do do with "shipping" and everything to do with getting your credit card number so they could starting charging you the hidden $47 a month later.)




So, how do people make money with the Twitter Cash scam system? By signing up to the program, creating their own fake newspaper site and then recruiting more victims to sign up for the "free" twitter cash starter kit. Every time someone else gets sucked in, the scam recruiter gets to share in that $47 charge that the unsuspecting victim ends up getting on their credit card bill. Nice people, huh?



Obviously, these Twitter Cash and Fast Twitter Profits systems are something that you should stay far away from. If it's too late and you've already been victimized by one of these Twitter Profits scams, you should immediately cancel your membership. If you encounter any difficulty in attempting to cancel your subscription, you should phone your credit card provider.
