Avoid the scams, find out which Business Opportunities actually work

I received an email this week from Peter who asked:

“There is a company who have been advertising weekly for some time in the Exchange and Mart, offering to install on your PC software called a Pokerbot.

They claim, that once installed, it will enable the user to win at online Casinos with the “Robot” playing automatically.

This is not cheap, with cost of £2250.00 for the software and the installation, they are also looking for 10% per month of your winnings.

They also include an agency for this sum with a commission payment of £500.00 for every new client signed up.

The company goes by the name of JPG Software or The Software Development Agency

37b New Cavendish Street
London
W1G 8JR

Have you ever heard of them?”

My reply was:

“I haven’t heard of this company before I’m afraid and I would be rather sceptical of their claims.Let me ask about this in the next newsletter and I will see if anyone else has any info.”

 

Looking a little further into this particular opportunity, I found that the advert says:

“The Daily Mail tested this software…”

It doesn’t say that the Mail found the software to work but simply that it “tested” it.

The report on the Daily Mail’s site basically says that someone called Dave set up two computers in their office so that they could run this bot.

It doesn’t say whether this Pokerbot is the same one as advertised in the Exchange and Mart however.

What they found was that the bot made £40 over the course of one day. Not a bad return but completely unethical!

Why the two PCs?

Well, the casino’s poker software reads your hard drive to make sure that you are not using software like this.

Because of this you have to run the pokerbot on a laptop and then network this laptop to the PC which is running the casino software.

That’s why you need the engineer to come round to install the software, I assume.

The whole story can be found here:

You’ll never beat poker robots

I’d be very interested to hear any feedback about this particular opportunity.

Have you ever used any Pokerbot software like this?

Did it work?

Did you get caught?
