I was recently scammed by http://3500weekly.com/ who promised me a 800 page website. I paid my money and then they turned around and told me I had to pay a huge monthly hosting fee. The original sales page does not state having to pay any more than the asking price. Steer clear of this one. By the way they won’t refund neither. So very tru.

To wit: the Second Life community appeared to be infected with this about two weeks ago: <a href="http://www.storyofmysecondlife.com/?p=394" rel="nofollow">http://www.storyofmysecondlife.com/?p=394</a> Where it raged for a few days before subsiding. Now, two weeks later, it's picking up again, but affecting the Web2.0 community (mostly). It would be incredibly interesting for someone to do a "six degrees of separation" style analysis and backtrack through the spam to trace the original source, sort of like the people who brought the Gypsy Moth to the USA in the 1860s (source: <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gypsy_moth" rel="nofollow">wikipedia</a>) thinking it was a silkworm...LOL -kj- Hey Wes,
