Bye, bye for you boys no more Red Bull you smell like ....!

Good Day Readers:

Blogs attract scammers like flies to ...., however, every so often one comes along that's so stupid it takes the cake.

On Saturday while "out and aboot" - only Canadians talk like that eh - encountered a vehicle waiting in a car wash line up with a large Red Bull can mounted on it. Stood there laughing so hard almost had an accident. The lady behind the wheel did not seem amused. Upon returning home later had received not one but two copies of the following:

Hello,

We are currently seeking to employ individual's world wide. How would you like to make money by simply driving your car advertising for RED BULL.

How it works?

Here's the basic premise of the "paid to drive" concept:

RedBull seeks people -- regular citizens, professional drivers to go about their normal routine as they usually do, only with a big advert for "RED BULL" plastered on your car. The ads are typically vinyl decals, also known as "auto wraps,"that almost seem to be painted on the vehicle, and which will cover any portion of your car's exterior surface.

What does the company get out of this type of ad strategy?

Lots of exposure and awareness.The auto wraps tend to be colorful, eye-catching and attract lots of attention.

Plus, it's a form of advertising with a captive audience,meaning people who are stuck in traffic can't avoid seeing the wrapped car alongside them.

This program will last for 3 months and the minimum you can participate is 1 month.You will be compensated with $600 per week which is essentially a "rental"payment for letting our company use the space no fee is required from you RedBul shall provide experts that would handle the advert placing on your car.

It is very easy and simple,no application fees required contact email along with the following if you are interested in these offer.

You will receive an up front payment of $200 inform of check via courier service for accepting to carry this advert on your car.

Fill in the information below:
