Zurker - Making Pyramids Appear Flat
Today after reading a post about Zurker I started to dig around and found out more about what this thing is.

It's a bit long and I have trouble posting long articles here (converting from HTML to BBcode would take me 2 or 3 days). So here's the link to the full article:

I didn't realize that they were also selling non-tradeable "vshares". That makes it even more suspect. Apparently you get more vshares the more minions you recruit, so it's basically a pyramid scheme and that's why you'll see a lot of evangelists.

@Julian Schweinsberg Thanks :]

I just corrected the whois dates, zurker.com -> sept 3 2011, zurkerscam.com -> sep 25 2011, just 3 weeks apart.

@Bob Mottram Indeed and I just noticed so many evangelist websites, even some with only one blog post with an invite, like joinzurker.blogspot.co.uk.

The whole thing smells of Nigerian bank scams, it does resemble the fortitude thing.
