Agloco: Get Paid to Surf

When I first heard of Agloco (aff), I considered it as a flop pyramid scam, but I was wrong. Agloco turned out to be immensely popular among everybody. I’m not in a position to comment over Agloco because their viewbar isn’t available yet, but I’m a member of Agloco and I’ll try to invite my friends into it (hoping that I’ll generate some revenues). Sadly spammers have been trying to take Agloco to the masses by spamming innocent members of forums, discussion groups and other social networks.

It’s OK to invite your friends and family, It’s OK to use your blog to introduce Agloco to your readers, but going off the track and spamming random members of social networks (like MyBlogLog and Orkut) is surely wrong. Spammers have created new profiles by the name ‘agloco’, just for the sake of spamming. If you want to introduce someone to Agloco, why hide?

I don’t think Agloco is a scam in itself. It will be interesting to see how much revenue we can generate by actually browsing with their viewbar installed. We being small timers, it might be hard for us to generate revenue out of Agloco.

Have you been a victim to such spam? Share your experience.
