I would say that she failed this test. But really, I feel that the phone companies are most complicit in this. They're the ones that receive the complaints first and should be able to warn their customers when they're going to get billed at places like these.
Is there some type of legal issue, or could the phone companies choose to block those "renew your car insurance" calls from their customers too?
I agree there is such a large revenue base because you can be scammed relatively easy into subscribing by phone... it should not be this easy there should be a terms of service or a signup that you have to agree to. It is the phone companies fault in my opinion and there should be options to disable it, especially since younger children are very susceptible to this thing like text ##### to get a free ringtone of your favorite artist then in impossible to read text there is a 9.95 subscription included.
Phone companies won't do that unless if they are forced to do so by law or a governing authority. Each one of them takes a big percentage of the money that is charged to their client. Last time I checked it was around 50%. Why would they throw that away?
I've seen the IQ test many months ago. I'm surprised that it took so long for Facebook to ban the ad network. They do have an army of people looking for obscene photographs.
I saw that ad last week, and of the 4 or so randomly selected friends, I was incredulous that one of them had a score of less than 130, and that another had a score as high as 130.
Ordinarily I would be tempted to waste time competing with my friends, but it was too obvious a scam.
And yes, I did feel a bit guilty that I obviously judge people I know as bright or not-so.
