Online Profit Stream is a new work at home opportunity being promoted by spokeswoman Cindy Carter, who says that she can give you a proven and legit way to earn money from home with just a computer and internet connection.
According to her “personal story,” within just three months of starting this business, she was debt free, able to quit her job, and was making twice as much money per year working just four hours a day than she used to with a full time salaried job.
Customers who are interested in pursuing this opportunity as well can do so once they pay a one time fee of $97; they promise there will never be a recurring monthly charge with this opportunity.
What is a Link Placement Specialist?
A Link Placement Specialist is the same thing as a Search Engine Agent. Both are just made up titles created by people who sell training programs to teach people how to be affiliate marketers.
An affiliate marketer is someone who promotes the goods or services of a company – or companies – they are partnered with through the strategic placement of links. When these links result in a sale, the affiliate marketer earns a commission.
The Reality
Companies that sell training programs for affiliate marketing are a dime a dozen – Online Profit Stream is one of hundreds (or maybe more) that are operating online at any given time. Past examples include
• Web Fortune Master
• Web Fortune Vault
• Home Cash Academy
• Web Profits From Home and many, many more.
All these training programs are similar in that they either misrepresent affiliate marketing or, like Online Profit Stream, they hardly tell you anything at all about the type of work you will be doing until you have already turned over your credit card number and they have your money.
The truth is that affiliate marketing can be a lucrative opportunity but it takes a lot of time, hard work, effort, and often a lot of money to get started. Since this is usually very different from how the sales page of the training programs describe these opportunities, customers usually have complaints and are ultimately unhappy with what they receive.
People who are interested in pursuing this type of business should put in the time and effort to do as much free research online as possible to make sure this opportunity is right for them before they begin investing money in it.
haven't anyone else reported? But,I do wish everyone else in their recovery of their refund.

Than you have to do the training videos and put forth an effort.
I did the training videos and called back - still no refund.
Any suggestions?
I never believe in the idea of working from home or the pyramid scheme kinda marketing because it's a waste of time and you will make mostly nothing. I came across yahoo ads last night and read the ads. The ads sounds catching and also provide refund if you don't make anything for 2 months along with comments of facebook users who said they been making money. I was about to sign up, the ads make me think it may sounds easy, but it may not.Plus, I thought to myself I need to do further researches before I do so, so I bookmarked the page. Today I came back again, I read the facebook user comments again..it first post shows that it was posted 13 mins ago, and the rest is like 1 or 2 hours ago, but I actually saw all those same posts last night, so it cant be around those time. I clicked on one of the facebook user so I can see the real profile, but it direct me to where I can sign up for the service. So I start searching the web to see if it's a scam or not. Thanks for providing the info.
Oh, whenever you see those types of ads, and try to exit it out, a pop-up will show and give you a discount. I tried to close it and they gave me $20 discount if I decided to stay and sign up. SO you actually only pay $77, not $97. Most websites use the same strategy when advertising their products, sometimes they will keep asking you 3 times and keep giving you more discounts before you can exit.
