I thought it should be tagged as spam.

He's right! If it weren't for Voice123, I would never have been able to afford hot at cold running Perrier throughout my Beverly Hills manse.

Ya know SPAM has a bad rap, and this craigslist post smells of something and it it ain't SPAM... more like B*** S***!

I am still waiting for my stacks and stacks, in bags and bags of money at my doorstep.

I will not say what I think about V789, I won't, I won't, I won't.

Well, nothing they said is untrue. You will get scads and scads of leads in your inbox - they just forgot to mention that if you don't pay their fee, you can't reply to the leads. Mere oversight. Barf

Thank you Frank.

I know how hard it it to restrain yourself.

Personally, I don't think he/she/they care(s) too much for the folks on the VO-BB...

Most here were nice, just honest... and folks like that ... oh, there I go again...

I would be happy to meet with this 'owner' in person and discuss the realities of business and life in general... (yes, this might be considered an invitation...).

yeah I saw that ad - Dallas, Austin, Boston, Chicago, San Diego, Atlanta.

This guy is getting some sort of throwback from V123, because the link takes you to his own labelled link within V123,

he also has a MySpace page:

http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=91425910

check out the spammy testimonials at the bottom of the page, from two guys who made hundreds from V123 just by sitting back!

I don't think V123 are responsible for the ads, and they probably don't know that this guy is using these tactics to up the hits on the page they gave him so they could track what business he is bringing in.

"Thanks for the hook up on the Voice job, I made $400 bucks! I like the way you just upload your file and get paid!
So far today I have two more request!"

Is this what Amy means by "leave the sacks of money by the door"?

I didn't know it was that easy. Why am I busting my hump with practice and training? I just need to upload the file and get paid. WOO-HOO!!!!

This is V123's Affiliate Program, where you do the advertising for them and they pay you to do it (at incredibly cheap rates!)

http://about.voice123.com/voice/content/affiliate_program?c=Newsletter_49

$10 for every premium membership logged through your shadow site, and 3% of any job that's booked through your shadow site. Whoopee!

We'll all be rich, I tell you, rich!!

Holy crap.
