Just got an email through from someone I subscribe to and he pointed me in this direction. Looks good and I've searched online for reviews only I'm becoming a bit of a sceptic as far as 'honest reviews' go when they have links to the page in the article. I know that's marketing, but hey......
I just thought I'd see if anyone here had heard of it or is a part of it, and what they thought.
Thanks peeps. xx

Hi Sarah,
I'm always a bit skeptical when they start throwing around terms like Easy Automated Income.  What part of earning an online income have you ever found 'easy?'
When a company/person uses terminology in their advertising to give the impression of get rich quick, I lose all respect for them. To me they don't have a conscience strong enough to keep them from taking advantage of the gullible and desperate who really need something to make a difference in their lives and are grasping at straws.
If the advertising on that site were even 50% true, wouldn't we all be thrilled and rich? It really irks me that good people lose money and hope repeatedly by falling for these bold faced lies.
Granted, they shouldn't allow their common sense to be thrown out the window along with their money, but it seems there is just something about us humans that we want to believe that there is some secret magic formula to wealth - apart from hard work.
Okay, I've had my little rant. I'll let someone else have a turn. 
Blessings,
Angie

I feel always bad, for people started and fail
We are innocent people. We jump in online business for opportunities.
But, from seller's view they are only think about selling their programs.
Primary factor is selling, not helping.
People start online business because they are not making enough
income for living. But companies are taking money away from those
poor people.
They lost job at offline, and they got scammed online.
I have seen a lot of people experienced this.
My suggestion to choosing online business is do what most people
do, do not be fascinated by "quick money, get rich scams"
You will end up spending more money!!
Thank you
Happy day~^^

As always, thanks for the replies guys and Happywife I too think that if it was so easy then why isn't everyone rich beyond their wildest dreams?!
I've been plugging away for around two months, not seen a return yet (my husband keeps asking me if I've earned any money!), but I *know* I will. I'm putting the effort in and trying to build (free ) solid foundations, which takes time. I've been distracted by the Shiny things, I think most who choose to take this type of path does, but two months in, I've unsubscribes to all the crappy people who only email to sell me 'the next big thing' or 'look what happened to Jonny, he made millions by doing vitually nothing'. Yeah, after he'd put in months of hard graft like 100 hours a week, AND been distracted by the Shiny things. They don't tell you that do they?
Jaesun16, you are right. The sales pages are just that. Designed to sell a product to someone who is desperate to make money somehow. I'm not saying it's ethical or that it's not, but it's designed to sell, so that's what it does.
This is Internet Marketing I suppose and we all want someone to buy a product we promote or buy an ebook we wrote because we put effort into, but there are ways of doing it.
The thing is, it *did* catch my attention, which is exactly why I put it in here because I knew you guys would whack me upside my head, tell me to stop looking at Shiny things and get on with the way of the tortoise
Sorry, I didn't mean to go on for so long. xx

There are many aspects of doing business online that can
be automated. Driving traffic is usually not one of them -
which is where people get fooled by automated systems.
Traffic varies in quality. If you buy an "ad pack" from any
of these companies you will be disappointed - not only
because if there is any quality traffic you can expect it
to be skimmed off the top by the people running the
ad pack - but also because in general they will be skimming
20-50% right off your investment.
If you are serious about business online you need to
get serious about traffic - when you do you will begin
to understand how much true crap is going around in this
regard. You are better off handling your own advertising.
An automated system can be as simple as a webpage that
collects emails and an autoresponder system to follow-up -
or it can get sophisticated.
It's not hard to automate your business these days - but
if you have a bad offer or put out bad content you should not
expect to prosper.
I have a lot of my marketing more or less automated. But
on a daily basis I write or create more high-quality content -
much of it emails and video for my subscribers. Creating
the content isn't automated - I have to write the stuff and
I spend time reading in order to stimulate my mind with new
ideas.
I've reached the point where I have it narrowed down to
a few specific daily things I do - and the rest is largely
automated.
Hope this helps.

My thinking is that things become automated after you do the work. It is true that you can make sales while you sleep and it is on autopilot! Just don't let anyone tell you there isn't any work involved!

Once you get established it might be considered easy automated income and yes that part is adversting, but it is not as easy as they say.
