Huh? What breakthrough is this?

quote:
....We can STOP....chatting to people who pretend to be children in chat rooms by using amazing breakthrough IP filtration and parenthesis technology."
My question is HOW are they detecting "people who pretend to be children"?? Using IP filtration?? The FBI could use that technology. Gotta send them an email about this site!!

Re: Huh? What breakthrough is this?

There are lots of ways to detect that it's an adult chatting and not a child. I thought you guys knew everything? See:

"The BBC's web site reports on a "chatbot" program which is designed to run in chat rooms oriented at children, and detect when the people chatting with it may be attempting to lure children into "inappropriate" activity."

from: »catless.ncl.ac.uk/Risks/23.28.html#subj10

One of many such programs

A few years ago a top processor was only 500mhz, the petrol engine had 10bhp per litre and what have we now? You should know by now to "Never say Never" just highly improbable!

Would you like to earn well over £10, 000 GBP a month? If you would like to give away JUICE's incredible service start referring users to JUICE and we'll pay you lot's of money.

I have Q compression beat. My Infanitum technology (lossless) compresses every file to "". Unlike you I have the decompression all figured out. I just need a few million $ to finish the programme. Care to donate?

Re: Play it again, Sam

i have no idea why this wont post in the right place so i think it is here three frikken times I sincerely apologize i am very new to here ...

im sorry but how exactly does this add up to a scam? I am just not seeing how anyone has proved anything against this juice thing. They claim to have a new technology and while I dont see anything proving it's existance yet (becuase i have only been doing research for an hour now at 5am and I am tired) I do not see anything that proves that they dont have it. Am I missing something huge? Maybe becuase I am tired I just cant catch it. But I keep reading the alert and I dont see anything specific as to what or why or how it is what you are all claiming it to be. I do agree that the way some of it is written is a bit stupid. "way past faster than broadband" has to be the best line ever. But still ... please help me out here ...

Re: Play it again, Sam

How is it a scam? "You will never see another dead, blank or irrelevant page ever again and if you do, we will pay you £500 GBP*." ----- anyone with half a brain knows this would break them in a week.

"You are guaranteed to get a minimum connection speed of 2MB with 100% uptime. If we fail to meet either or both we will pay you £500 GBP* per failure." ----- 2MB... do you know how fast that is??? never happen. (anyone who knows the implications of the "MB" in this claim knows what I'm saying). This is not to mention the fact that connections go down, it's inevitable.

"YOU will NEVER receive a virus or worm in your email inbox again as we operate up to the millisecond software to stop the same, but if you do get one we will pay you £500 GBP* compensation." ----- Sure, if it blocks all message attachments. That's the only way you can make that claim.

Point is, anyone who asks such a question as "How do we know it's a scam?", doesn't have much knowledge and/or experience with the internet. I'm not putting anyone down by making this remark, just suggesting you do your homework before defending an obvious scumbag.

Definition For JUICED

Here is a definition for the term juiced from www.urbandictionary.com I instantly thought this when I read the name of the company because it used the word "Juiced" used to be commonly used in this meaning:

juiced -
The act of Stealing someone's property by force or suprise.

Jose just got Juiced by that dude.
Mike got Juiced for his money.

Etemology of Juiced

Well in the UK 'Juiced' mean to be hyped up and energetic eg, A Juiced up car in Need for speed. As Juiced is based in the UK (I think) I would assumes they are using Juiced to this effect

What a load of smart arses there are in here

Firstly, whoever posted the first article/ad could it not have been an attempt to find out more from all of you SUPPOSEDLY in the Know as to what you thought?. You seem to know everything! Second, if you seriously thought this was a scam would you not have been better trying to educate this person and the rest of us instead of just slagging them off without any facts.

If it's a scam we want facts not a gun put to our heads, we are not all as clued up as you superior beings! Next, why is it some of you have now begun to sign up under the pretence you want to see if the checks are real, and if they are real will you retract your statements? Of course if they are'nt you will be right AGAIN.

In fact you can't loose, you'll either be paid for something you said was crap, or you can say I told you so.

Come on guys, if you are all so wise we don't mind constructive advice, try to educate us with facts, Not slag everyone off. Disgusted visitor!

If you'd bothered to read the whole thread, you would have come across this post:

Re: What a load of smart arses there are in here

!I think sums it up quite nicely.!

I have read the whole thread and a lot more of the site and and found that there are some very good articles and forum subjects (I've learnt a lot since visiting) there are even more totally irrelevant replies which really are just a total waste of time and space. I don't know why they are not just deleted. It would give the place a much more professional look without having to scroll through all the drivel.

Re: juice address

Checked out the address and its a post office box.

Called the telephone number and its an automated voice directing you to the website and advising that the affiliate helpline will be open by oct 1st.

I have signed up with an expendable email address, and will follow through with some more investigations.

Will call back if I have any info.

fairy tale to scam the gullible

Juiceboosted is indeed in the google ads at the bottom of this very page.
Also there is a sponsored google link (see »www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=U···roadband ) offering more or less the same scam on »www.freebroadband4ever.com/
The site itself has no verifiable contact info on it. Hosted on server in Germany.

What this scamming exactly is going to be, still is not clear to me. Most likely at this stage it's harvesting email addresses of people gullible enough to believe the next fairy tale too, which is gonna be at a price.
