Look But Don't Click - One Last Time

Taking this a little father, I decided to click on the ad that claims someone made $77 an hour just to see what happens. Doing so took me to this page which at first glance looks like a news article. But the small print at the top of the page says "ADVERTISEMENT". Once you've had a look, here is what you do. Copy an entire comment and then put it in a search engine. I chose this one
and using Google got these results which include a lot of news-looking pages which have "ADVERTISEMENT" or "ADVERTORIAL" (huh?) in small print. Here's a few screenshots of that same comment.



And there's even pictures of checks from real people.


Some of these pages have even more links to other get rich quick scams.
