Well, this site has been hit with another scam - the 'Google adwords
blackmail' scam. Google adwords were being displayed before scammers
started doing click fraud on my account and consequently getting the
account suspended - big NO thanks to Google who offered no help (the
scammers told me they wouldn't help) and simply shut the account down
without any discussion.
After this happened I had a good look at Google adwords and I now
believe that adwords is a scam in itself - I will be doing a full
review of the system and putting it up on this site (stay tuned as I
have discovered some amazing facts and statistics).

Scams are nothing new, they have been perpetrated throughout time and
now with the world getting smaller criminals are reaching out to
potential victims worldwide at the speed of light.

Why do scammers do it?
To get rich; or in some poor countries (Nigeria) in order to make a
living. The 'Nigerian letter scam' is the countries 3rd largest
export.

Anyone with a brain could see it's a scam, only dumb people get caught!
I personally have a Diploma in Software Engineering and a I.T Degree
from QUT (Queensland University of Technology) so I'm no dummy; yet I
was caught out by an ebay scam (I explain more in the 'ebay' section)
AND a phishing email that managed to get my betting account details
(and this was done while I was writing my Cyberscams book!!).

Why are the scammers contacting me? Am I that special?
You're special to your family and friends but not to a scammer.
Scammers use any means necessary to contact as many people as possible;
on the Internet this includes having programs that get your email
address and then send you the bait email. They contact over a million
people a day in the hope that 1 or 2 will be sucked in.
If you really were special to them the email wouldn't start 'Dear
friend ...', it would start with your name.

What is the best way to protect myself against scams? Knowledge.
Don't hide under your bed and pull your Internet connection out of the
wall, there is too much fun to be had on the Internet!
Learning about these scams is the best defence; scams don't work unless
you give them your personal details, if you don't give that information
out then they can't sting you.

Find other ZORGIUM pages using your favorite search engine:

Enter your search keyword(s) and the keyword "zorgium" into the search input field of http://bing.com, http://yahoo.com or http://google.com.

Heads up: There's an ongoing spamdexing of Google searchbot algorithms. Sites that are 'copies of copies' and cloaked sites which include Zorgium keywords presented to search engine crawlers yet garbage content presented to human visitors were hosted on thousands of IP addresses and domains registered immediately after the introduction of Zorgium in November of 2009. The Hostgator/'The Planet'/Softlayer datacenters in Texas seem to be the epicenter of this activity in conjunction with anonymously registered domains of various TLD's but primarily .info domains at Godaddy which, in our opinion, has some sort of connection to the domains of goldmint.in and goldmint.org. Google has begun to notice this and has begun to lower the ranking of these sites and put our original sites back on top of the search rankings. These actions, as far as we can tell, negatively impact the use of the keyword 'zorgium' as a search term and provided little benefit, if any, to the perpetrators.

ZORGIUM note to content providers: If you don't want your page to appear in Zorgium's search abstraction then put an exclusion for "Zorgium" in your web server's robots.txt file.
