To attract referrals, some people who advertise 10bux have gone to post an incorrect payout amount. They post $1 payout instead of $10 which is found in the TOS.
Is not this another way of cheating just to get referrals?

sometimes, some people may not explain fully the details as the earlier people have mentioned like it was only for 100 people and then, it's $10. but there are some like you said, that actually do tend to mislead others with the way they write. it's really frustrating when this happens as there are people who tend to take people's words for granted. they're too trusting. of course, partly, it's their fault for being trusting but still, those who mislead should not do that i feel just to get referrals. it could be cheating like you said but then, i think they'll get their retribution as once their referrals know the truth, they'll stop being active thus they won't be able to get anything.

Yes it is cheating and all cheaters get their reward some day. Thanks for sharing and helping others not get cheated. I promise not to get on my soapbox again, :)
