Another Internet Money-Making Scheme
MPS: Yuba City, CA, USA: Imogene Offenfenster of Yuba City has developed a scheme to make money on the Internet. It does not involve spamming, selling, or multi-level marketing.
"It's a simple plan," says Miss Offenfenster, "I hope to just sit back and rake in the money." "I got the idea one day after closing a half-dozen pop-up windows on my computer. I said to myself, 'Girl you should charge rent for space on your screen.' So, I made up little signs that I email to the adverisers whenever a pop-up window appears on my screen."
And Miss Offenfenster is not shy about sharing her scheme with others. She hopes it may slow down the flood of ads she gets for prescriptions, credit cards, loans, and dating services among other things.
To date Miss Offenfenster has not received payment from any of the advertisers.
And the pop-ups keep popping up.

My current rate for an ad of your size is $10.00 per insertion. Please remit that amount to: Miss Imogene Offenfenster Thank you. |
And this email is sent to the webpage owner.
