Either I am just not understanding or they are truly scams. Just a example a seller says X website makes $200,000 in a month but you can buy it now for $39,000. Cash only!!! To me that just has scam written all over it. Or website make's over $1,000 a month but you can have it for $600. Again this sounds like a scam to me. I think either thats what the websites use to make and now there trying to sell because they had a really crappy month.  Or some people are doing major scams. What do you think?

As we are coming closer to the June 1st deadline, I wonder how many of those are arbitrage sites?

An arbitrage site is one that advertises via long-tail or cheaper keywords with Adwords to drive traffic to pages with higher valued Adsense ads. Google has said that site making $10,000 a month or more are going to be banned if they continue this practice after June 1st.

That was a very good read, I think thats how some of the websites on sitepoint are selling. It just seems too good to be true most of the time and even I am no website expert.
