India is full of freelancers who are offering services to the western countries. I have been into the SEO Industry from the year 2005 and have met hundreds of professionals who work from their home and cater their clients. In the past few years there has been a tremendous increase in the number of people who are offering these services following which the competition is increasing.
Everyone now feels that with a little knowledge of SEO they can start offering services and they even start spamming others after reading a few SEO Books. In this article i will be showing you some emails which I have received in the past few months and these noobs have no idea on who is the receiver and whats the point of just spamming others? Believe me the maximum Spams I have received is from a company called brainpulse.

We receive atleast 10 emails every week and when we respond these guys for more information on their previous work there would be no reply because their target audience is people who have less knowledge on SEO and how the ranking system works. These scammers charge hundreds of dollars per month for a few links on their network of high page rank pages which does not help anyone in real. Its better suggested to get real experience in this industry and then start a Legit Business on the same by showing some real work testimonials and ranking proofs.

I too reply them for their portfolio but never get concrete answers. Some even called on my number (stupid me who forgot to delete number from signature) and the conversation ended with my open laugh 😛

So, these people think that they can really take over the professionals.
Well, I am still in the process of learning SEO and stuff and I know it will go on forever, but yeah I must say that they do get successful in tricking out people out of this business/niche.
