I love how in the "news" story they start out being careful about grammar and tone in an effort to convey credibility, but toward the bottom of the piece it starts breaking down into typical internet scam gibberish.

I know what AdSense is, and Google would not be so stupid as to pay cash to random people sitting on their computers at home just so that they could insert links into websites. Thus far, the "news" article is clearly rubbish.

What I don't get, though, are the comments from supposedly happy people who have allegedly signed up for the program and are making money. Are the comments by spammers/scammers who hope to get people to sign up to their link so as to obtain their details - perhaps a phishing variant?
