GMail Ad....WTF?
 
I'm not trying to call attention to stuff that isn't my business, but since gmail likes to put greek related ads down the right side of the page, I couldn't help but listing this travesty.

Now, I'm pretty sure many of you already know about this, but I found this completely appalling that these would be amongst the same ads as greek101 and other paraphanlia:

The ad said this:

Interested in AKA?
Alpha Kappa Alpha here. You must read the book and watch the movie!
thegreeksecrets.shows.it

and it led me to this:
http://www.revealingbooks.com/index-int.html

Since these are unauthorized, I'm assuming it's NOT cool to read these if you're planning to rush NPHC....

Correct me if I'm wrong though, but I just found this odd cause I'd never want a book like this published about Delta Sig.

That's just wrong. I sincerely hope these books don't sell & that their information is wrong.

Anyone who believes anything in a book by someone named "Big Walt" shouldn't be in college, LOL.

I've seen a similar ad for all of the NPHC organizations in my Gmail.

There are no real secrets in the books, just regurgitated history that is widely available on the web. There are other threads about this guy, and from time to time, he will post on here as other people and talk about how great the books are.

These latest google ads are just another attempt at sales.

He also sends spam mail out under a false name and posing as a member of the org. that person belongs to.
