Thanks for connecting. Now I need a little help.

Body:
Thanks for accepting my 'connect' request.

I found BetterNetworker while trawling the Internet forums for help.

We're establishing a Community Garden in NW Thailand at the end of the year to help feed the hundreds of refugees flooding over the border from Myanmar. I'm not going to bore you with detail about the project, but it's going to cost a small fortune. I was lucky enough to get involved with Flixsnow pre-launch, and will be filling a 2 wide forced matrix. The end result is that on completion of the network they'll give us a cheque for $500k, which will fund the purchase of the farm and initial infrastructure.

We're on a tight schedule, and need the funding before the end of November.
To acheive this we need to first establish a group of 30 experienced networkers (first 4 levels) who will be able to not only bring in sales, but more importantly contribute to our planning and training development.

I've put together a social site where the team can share documents and information privately, a lead management system with individual capture pages and assignment of leads, and several other resources like SEO tracking and a page spinning service.

It's quite a big task, and I need help finding the right people to fill those top 30 slots.
I don't know where to start looking.

Any suggestions?

My Question is this.
What do you think the intent of this private message is? Trying to recruit or asking for help

Hello Marty,

I cannot speak to the issue of the intent of the message you got here, but I am an affiliate of Flixs Now, mainly because I was leaving Netfix and an associate sent me info on Flixs Now where I can get DVD's for $25 per year. The site seems legit.

Also, I have seen post on Face Book asking for support for one or another organization at some time or other.

I don't mind helping others but personally I give to my church and organizations that I have knowledge of.

Cause you never know, so, do your home work and you might want to tread lightly, know what I mean?.

I have no interest or desire to find out about this company. My post is about spamming. I guess I should be more clear next time.

Thanks for the feedback...

I don't like it, It is spamming

The same person started a thread here somewhere stating the exact same thing I decided to do a search on refugees in Sthailand and a community garden just for the fun of it. Looks like the refugee issue was a few years ago and no mention of a garden anywhere. I figured it was pure spam.

Strange thing is the same thing was going around to different forums a couple years ago. I just wonder how big of a garden you can build for 500k. I think that might be a farm lol

I don't know who would fall for such a poor marketing technique. It just really pisses me off for someone to friend me up then spam me... What a piece of work.

I have pretty much stopped excepting friend request on FB and Linked In just because of such B.S.

I have even had some marketers hit me up on you tube. I've blocked many people on Linked In and You Tube.

Guess some folk will never learn.
