2.  Tantamount to the paradigm shift in communication
created by Alexander Graham Bells invention of the
telephone, the Internet provides a medium for
instantaneous access to information, business decisions,
transactions, and personal interactions. As Edward Blake
divulged dual sides of the human spirit in Songs of
Innocence and Experience, likewise there is a dissonant
dark side on the Internet.
Wolves cloaked in sheep's clothing menacingly lurk on
the Internet, waiting to fleece their next innocent lamb,
commonly referred to as the net newbie. Once their
victim is sighted, the end result is a virtual net newbie
nightmare, as the ravenous wolves siphon money into
their gluttonous bank accounts.

3.  There are five notable fleecing schemes focusing on the innocence of
net newbies, as well as other nave, unsuspecting Internet surfers:
1.Retail Fleecing -- Expensive high-value items are offered at low or
discount Internet prices or auctioned off. Typically wolves possess
exceptionally efficient systems for amassing your money, but
inevitably dispatch either never occurs, or an inferior product is
received. Synonymous to pulling light out of a black hole are net
newbies retrieving refunds.
2.Business Fleecing -- Better expressed as scam, slam, thank you
maam identify business opportunities promoting fast-track money,
e.g., $35,000 in 10 weeks, $100,000 to $500,000 in one year,
lotteries, money doublers, etc., may appear feasible, but are not
probable.
Many wolves purport years of slaving over the Internet until one day
they miraculously discovered an amazing money making system that
has netted them millions of dollars, and they are eagerly willing to
share their secret with you for a nominal fee. The only phenomenon
these wolves discovered was how to profitably fleece net newbies and
other nave internet victims. Realistically, starting an offline or online
business takes time, dedication, commitment, work, and effort.

4.  3.Investment Fleecing -- Scalping and pump and dump schemes are the most
popular. Pump and dump, a hybrid market manipulation wherein a company
desiring to increase sparsely traded stocks, or stocks of shell companies,
disseminate false information to boost trade. Holdings are then sold (dumped)
before stock price drops again.
4.Credit Card Fleecing -- The devastating aroma of identity theft lingers for
years. Unprotected computers, or un-secure, peer-to-peer services, provide a
smorgasbord for wolf hackers to feast on. Wolf packs offer each other programs,
manuals, processor chips, etc., to easily access net newbie computers, gather
confidential information, then spew forth carcasses known as viruses, worms, or
Trojan horses. Confidential information is then sold to other criminal internet
wolves for profit, as they in turn create new bank accounts, purchases, etc.
using the net newbies identity.
5.Social Fleecing -- Ostensibly the zenith of vulnerabilities for net newbies occurs
when grazing the pastures of IM (instant messaging) services, chat rooms,
disaster relief solicitations, etc. Net newbies are blindsighted, not only by their
intrinsic nature to alleviate personal tragedies, but also by assuming there is
safety in numbers and that firewalls (anti-virus software) provide protection
when utilizing IM services or chat rooms.

5.  Tips for Net Newbies:
* Seek guidance from professional internet marketing experts,
rather than lone wolves (although some wolves travel in
packs) who purportedly made their millions by discovering a
secret or unique marketing technique.
* Refrain from approaching or viewing the internet as a place
to make a fast buck, regardless of how convincing a wolf
website or den appears.
* Avoid IM services, peer-to-peer systems, and chat rooms.
* Abstain from money-doubler schemes. This is frequently the
den for wolf packs. You can sell amidst the wolves without
joining the pack.
* Take time to develop online relationships and learn how to
locate legitimate business opportunities before investing
money.
