First of all Google doesn’t condone the sale of it’s Wave invites. Secondly, is it worth risking the Backdoor.Tiderv Malware Trojan (some would say yes. Lol). Scammers convince Waver’s that they can earn money by selling their invites to others. (According to Symantec). So keep an eye out for these muppets/scammers.

What does a wave invite look like and how do I receive one?

A wave invited gets sent to your inbox with a link that takes you to a Google page to sign up. That’s it, nothing else.

Here is a screenshot of a Google Wave Invite.

This link will take you to a Google Url

It should look similar to this screenshot:

Best way to get an invite is ask someone you know to invite you. As it only gets sent to your email address.
