Will Buying Leads Cost You More Than You Bargained For?

Type business opportunity leads or mlm leads into any of the search engines and I can assure you tons of choices will be at your fingertips. People just like you who are looking for the "golden" business opportunity. Go ahead. Purchase that list. It includes names and email addresses. If you're lucky, you may even come into the possession of a list that has physical addresses and phone numbers! Wow! You've really hit it big this time.

Here's the question you should ask yourself. If these leads are that fresh and that legit, why isn't the person that's selling them using these great leads to build a downline that spans from Anchorage to Jamaica?

The hard cold truth is that most of the leads you purchase online today are about as worthless as a Confederate $100 bill.

We've all been guilty of visiting websites that spark our interest for some strange reason. Just when you think they're about to divulge the secret of the universe to you - they ask you to type in your name, email address and sometimes your phone number.

Well, wouldn't you know it. After you electronically send this apparently very valuable information to the culprits we will discuss today, the information you thought you wanted turns out to be a load of junk. Aren't you glad you typed in the wrong name and a bogus email address. What a relief. Right? Wrong!

That absolutely bogus email and wrong name could wind up in your next batch of business opportunity leads for the remarkably low price of just $99.99.

Unbeknownst to most, your information is being sold to the highest bidder. Yes. Your personal information is a hot commodity in cyberspace.

I realized something was not quite right after purchasing my first bundle of leads. Most of the names and addresses looked legit. The email addresses seemed okay.

After emailing over 200 business opportunities and receiving almost all of them back "undeliverable", I knew something was wrong.

Most of my postcards were returned undeliverable as well. Talk about a waste of stamps.

So, not only are you out of money purchasing leads but your expenses don't stop there. There's postage, envelopes, paper, not to mention your valuable time.

I have heard that there are some truly legitimate leads brokers out there. Still, I find it difficult to purchase another single batch especially after the last batch I received. The first name on the list was "Mrs. Peach Fuzz".

Buyers - BEWARE!
