Recently I told you about Google Wave Start sending Invites and now I realized many new blogspot blogs are created to start Google Wave invites scam. Recently Google Wave invite was on sale on eBay and that too before Google wave actually started sending invites.
Recently many new blogspot blogs are created with name Googlewaveinvites, Google-wave-invitation and so on. The most common thing which you will notice on these websites are ads, or they will ask you to leave your email.
Some users also reported that these websites are asking for credit card invitation. The recent blog which I saw was asking to take a survey, these are ads and the owner will get paid about it. You might report to blogspot team about such scam blogs.
If you are not aware of it, then you should know,Google wave invites are free and if someone ask for money in return of Google wave invite, you can report about it.
If you have a blog, post about this or use twitter , Facebook, to spread this words, so that no other users will lose their hard earn money.

I didnt get that email. What can I do it I cont have it?
I already applied for the invitation
Hope i will receive it soon ……..
I guess we shouldn’t be surprised that people will actually pay for an invitation. If there’s a market for it, rest assured that there’s a plethora of scams out there.
Actually this happened in twitter and twitter have suspended such scammers.
Meanwhile there is a serious spelling mistake in this post. Google is mentioned as Goofle!
Hey harsh …why you have written GOOFLE in the title of this post??
Hi Harsh, nice post. I am following your blog for last 3 weeks. I must appreciate you for the quality of content.
Keep it up.
