Shawn Casey is a self-appointed marketing expert who is best known for
his book titled "
Mining Gold on
the
Internet." And while he brings
up
some valid points, the principles being teached leave a great deal of
room for headaches.
In his teachings, he's basically showing other's how to be a reseller
of his product. While this is a concept we certainly endorse, it falls
short because of the freedom of the affiliates to cast Shawn Casey's
name in a negative light, due to spamming.
For example, you may have received (like I have) junk emails on how
Shawn Casey can show you how to make $1000 in a 15-day period. This
type of statement loses credibility when it's been spammed to you time
and again.
While Shawn may not be the one spamming, assuming it was one of his
affiliates, that fact that is occuring so often suggests that Shawn
doesn't have a strict anti-spamming policy, and may possibly even
condone it.
The bottom line is that companies that have strict affiliate "don't
spam or your account will be terminated" policies, don't appear in spam
emails, because the affiliate knows they won't get paid.
But since Shawn Casey's name keeps reappearing in unsolicited emails,
it appears very suspicious.
Once again, some of Sean Casey's teachings are legitimate, but nothing
mind shattering or cutting edge. If not for all the spam, we'd give a
neutral review of Shawn Casey, and assuming he doesn't endorse spam,
we'll go ahead and keep a neutral position. But by no means can we
recommend him, since there are certainly better and easier ways to go
about making money online, than with Shawn Casey's "Mining Gold on the
Internet" techniques.

"I was dared to do this on
St. Patrick's Day, and everyone is telling me that I'm an insane
millionaire who must have gone absolutely crazy for doing this today"
Did you receive an email from "Shawn Casey" at "Mining Gold
Corporation" who says
"I was dared to do this on St. Patrick's Day, and everyone is telling
me that I'm an insane millionaire who must have gone absolutely crazy
for doing this today, especially on St. Patrick's Day, but I don't care
anymore because I think it's just the right thing to do. Okay, let me
catch my breathe while I type this,"
This one is another of the schemes with loads of exaggerations. The
website says:
"Internet Millionaire Shawn Casey is giving away his $497 "Internet
Business-In-A-Box"
- a multi-media training course that reveals the
fastest way to make a fortune on the Internet in the next 60 days!
Basically this is just a junk email hawking a load of crap. The links
all redirect the visitor to http://www.goldwares.com/QSS/. You would do
best to simply delete the email. Unless of course, you believe in the
old adage "a fool and his money are soon separated", and you wish to
play the part of the fool.
Follow this link to a report of the scam from a victim. Another blogger
points out that Gmail and Firefox consistently identify emails from
Shawn Casey as spam. Now there's an editorial for you!
Meanwhile, just to prove that you can't believe everything you see on
the internet, a number of sycophantic toadies claiming to expose scams
are touting Shawn Casey, saying how wonderful his so-called "products"
are; see these links:

Another old expression applies here" If it seems too good to be true,
it probably is. Avoid get-rich schemes and look for realistic,
common-sense ways to earn a living. Leave to schemes and scams to
idiots.
