Google has finally spoken out about this scam, although it seems to me like they waited until after FTC took steps to shut GTC down to do so. http://googleblog.blogspot.com/2009/07/how-to-steer-clear-of-money-scams.html
My questions for Google. Why has it taken you so long to speak out when so many consumers were questioning and reporting the use of your good name in this scam? How much filthy lucre did you rake in fostering the ads for Google Treasure Chest before FTC stepped in to stop this nonsense? With all the resources that Google Corp has at hand, it looks like more could have been done a lot sooner to help warn consumers to avoid getting entangled in the scam. My opinion is that your advice is a little late to benefit a lot of consumers because you dragged your feet speaking out. "Just my opinion".
