Pagi ini dapet email dari Google Adsense mengenai pembayaran para Publisher Indonesia yang sudah bisa menggunakan Western Union. Berikut ini kutipan isi email yang saya terima:

you receive your AdSense payments in cash using the worldwide Western Union
money transfer service. This payment method is quick, easy, and free.
Best of all, you’ll no longer need to wait for checks to arrive in the mail
or to clear at the bank.Some things to note:
* Payments by Western Union follow our normal payment schedule
(https://www.google.com/adsense/support/bin/answer.py?answer=9905)

names and not to businesses.* Payments must be picked up within 60 days of issuance or they will expire.

the payment will be credited back to your account.*Payments will be made in US dollars, but depending on your local Western
Union agent, they may be picked up in your local currency.To sign up for this new payment method, please follow these instructions:

Mudah-mudahan saja metode pembayaran dengan menggunakan Western Union ini bisa terus berlanjut karena sistem pembayaran Google Adsense dengan menggunakan cek memang terasa sangat lambat, butuh waktu kurang lebih 1 bulan sebelum cek tersebut cair dan masuk ke rekening tabungan kita di bank.
Ayo semangat dan maju terus internet marketing di Indonesia !
Kemarin malam saya buka email, ada email alert notification, isinya pemberitahuan bahwa account Yahoo Search Marketing saya sudah mencapai nol. Memang seingat saya account pre-paid YSM saya memang tinggal sisa $15 ketika saya terakhir login beberapa hari yang lalu.
Di dalam email tersebut ada link menuju halaman Login ke account YSM (masih belom sadar kalo itu email Phishing) dan saya juga meng-klik link tersebut…huhuhu…menuju ke halaman website yang digunakan oleh sang penjahat untuk mengambil data-data login siapapun calon korbannya. Disitulah saya baru sadar kalau alamat URL di address bar bukan URL dari Yahoo…tetapi something else. Untung saya engga langsung login. Selamet deh. Hari ini saya coba browsing ke situs fraud tersebut browser kesayangan saya si Mozilla Firefox sudah melaporkan kalo itu situs adalah halaman Reported Web Forgery (bagus deh, biar ngga banyak korban).
So, guys….be careful ketika menerima email-email yang mirip-mirip saya tadi. Lumayan kan kalo di account YSM-mu masih banyak isinya ntar bisa dipake sama orang-orang yang ngga bertanggung jawab deh.
Hehehe…..udah dari bulan Agustus ini website-website saya pada aneh….website2 yang dibikin dari dulu pake Frontpage (cape euy bikinnya, apalagi pas nambahin content) dulu ranking posisi di SERP Google jelek, sekarang naik drastis dan bercokol di rangking 1 sampai 10 SERP (horee…), dan malah website-website yang pake CMS Wordpress pada turun posisinya (ada yg ilang dari index malah).
Kotak pasir atau Tarian Google nih? Enjoy the show!
