Recently I have come across a lot of online vendors who offer free courses online, only to register and find out you have to pay for it or they would tell you to pay for an advance class. My question is why not let people know from the start it would be a paid class, rather than lie to them. What's your take on this.
 
some people lie that their pet is in pain and they can't afford vert bills however I noticed that there are the same pics of the same animals so that means that some people do earn like that and that is very sad because this way to earn is very bad

Most online sites lie to trap people. Some online earning sites trap you and then ask for money.
 
That's not surprising, even though their strategy is fraudulent, their goal is to recruit as many members as possible by offering free courses, even if you don't register as a paid member, they already have your identity, even your WhatsApp number and email.

True, though that's so annoying, it's best you just let them know they would be paying before joining so their mind would be prepared.
 
I have already come across this, but it is very difficult to fight with it because it is designed for inexperienced people and they can lose money in this way. I don't think it will ever disappear because those people will leave such a field, but new ones will come
 
I have encountered a situation like this in the past, and I think it might be a deliberate strategy to gain clients. However, I find it somewhat dishonest as they should have been upfront about the costs from the get-go. It can be frustrating to assume that something is free, only to find out that you must pay for it later.
 
What I assess as mostly people remain active in trying to hunt us, majority of earning apps are working on similar principle as in start they say it's free and suddenly ask for money. Same in some websites as you work and work and when you reach at payout they say first upgrade then you'll get payout. The point is it's us who must keep informing each other about scam sites.

Yesh it is a white lie but marketers would see it as marketing tactic. So it is always up to buyers to look at things critically before committing their money

Yes, it is a common marketing strategy and it is quite effective. Ultimately, it is up to the customer to decide whether or not to support it.

Free course means there is a discount. The course is 73 % discounted. Or 27 % discounted. If you have to pay 100 % of the course fee it is a lie but free means discounted price. Imagine that you have the spend time energy and resources to provide this course for free is not a good mathematical expression. What you do not accept for yourself do not accept for others. If you do not have money to pay for courses just leave the window.

I don't know about this though, but free means without cost or payment. So when you use the word free to advertise your services, it means people should not be expecting to pay anything. It's best to let them know part of the cost is free or there would be an advanced class where they would have to pay. Am not against the fact that they are asking for payment for their course, but do not mislead them.

Does the course preparation cost 0 dollars preparation and is the money paid to tutors who are benevolent or working without getting any money from the organization? If anyone assets for the course for free then the company will run out of funds and no longer be able to provide new courses. Let's say the course costs 100 $. For this week like the summer or New Year promotion, there is a 50 % discount means 50 % free cost means need to pay 50 $. If you do not have 50 $ or have 50 $ but are not willing to spend just close the window of course and pass. If the company provides courses like you say free of cost then all coursing companies will close their doors.
 
Top tech and internet companies have made lying the most lucrative way to make money online. A large number of people are getting intelligence jobs in the internet sector only for making fake claims using the robbed data of online workers, investors.

It's a course made by a single person online, not a physical course. And on the flyer it says it's free, even most times when you ask them, they tell you it's completely free. But after joining they start telling you to pay. This is misleading. I don't know how it works in your country, but over here in my country when you tag something as free, it means you are not to pay anything. Over here saying a course is free when it's not is considered as misleading. If you are to pay a certain amount it is usually stated on the flyer.

Unfortunately the marketing venture doesn't work without telling lies. This is quite the crisis for the business as a whole thing.
