I was contacted via e-mail of a "new" way to advertise in place of Adwords. I was provided a link to their website and it has a live demo. I entered my URL into the live demo then entered a keyword in the appropriate box and it supposedly shows you the result.
The result is a new window with your URL placed above the search results. Seems cool, but it's just a plugin. I was told I needed a browser upgrade and they conveniently have the link for a browser upgrade on their site. Well, it's just a link to download their plugin so that they can proceed to scam you.
The pricing is $995 for 1 keyword and the more you buy the cheaper each keyword is. For 10 keywords it is $595 each. So, you are paying the company to provide a plugin and you advertise to yourself and nobody else.
