Here's a very interesting and so true article that I found on Hit Exchange News. This is a must have newsletter very anyone working with traffic exchanges.

Reality Check by Tim Whiston

Sometimes when I'm surfing for traffic, I have to pinch myself just to be sure I'm not dreaming.
I am truly amazed by some of the ridiculous things I see from the surf bar. Things like this.
Who promotes this kind of stuff? More importantly, who believes these preposterous ads?

Are we honestly expected to believe a business/investment opportunity with a potential yield of $10k per week would be made public through a free advertising resource? If people weren't buying into this type of complete nonsense, it would have disappeared long ago. Sadly, it doesn't appear as though these ludicrous adverts are going anywhere, as I see them every time I surf.
It's as if people are inclined to throw common sense and obvious judgement out the window (no pun intended) once they enter cyberspace. Suggestions that would be laughed at, even chastised openly in the offline world, are accepted and gleefully endorsed here on the web.

If you are currently participating in a program that makes the kind of claims seen in the above screenshots, or if you are thinking about getting involved in such a program, please take a minute and be honest with yourself. This stuff is garbage, plain and simple. The only people making a fortune with these systems are the con artists who create them.
