I do know many of us here have joined many scam sites and actually I never counted it how many scam I have joined and whenever I came to know it is scam it would more disappointing to me as my precious time and money is wasted there without any benefit. More often now whenever I join I would like to know its past history of that site like whether it has paid any, how is the forum discussion on that sites so on. Still some sites vanish on fine day making those believer of that site into a dilemma.

Till today i have not come across any scam site and I'm happy. I hope in the days to come and the future too i do not encounter one. I can understand how it feels when u have earned and then lose that money or never get paid for your work.
Sorry to hear buddy that you were a victim to so many scam sites. I hope u too don't face any more crap from now on. Wish u all the best

I have actually joined two scam sites... one of them is slashmysearch... i never did get paid when i reached the $20 minimum payout... and the other one is jobineurope.com... i sent some money to a saw called affiliate company of theirs... but it was too late when i found out that these two are working together to scam people from all over the world... good thing it was only like 30 euros... they were asking for more... but i did not bother with them anymore... the best i can do is warn others not to send them any money...

I too joined many scam sites and recently I suffered the same disappointment like you.I feel sorry for wasting my time on these sites.The thing I can not understand is that why these site owners do such a thing.They earn money even without deceiving people but still they want to cheat the users of their share too.They vanish after that not knowing how short sighted this act is.Instead they should be honest and build on their trust and reputation.By doing this they can earn lot more money for good,than by indulging in scams.

You are so spot on about what you wrote. If you are participating in all kinds of internet schemes trying to make money, you are bound to have been scammed by some of them because scamming has become so rampant. I have been scammed so many times I have lost count. If what I lose in the process is just my wasted time and earnings from these sites that cannot be realized, I can live with that. I just move on and tell myself to be more watchful the next time. What I really feel disappointed and frustrated about is to be scammed by a site which when I first joined is trusted and honest, and where the major forums have all given the thumbs up for the site. I have been a victim of such sites a few times already and have lost thousands of dollars in the process. That's really hard to take. When I started, I had carefully selected these schemes, done my due diligence of checking them out, and had high hopes of gaining success with them only to end up utterly disappointed. I haven't given up hope though, and am still looking for that pot of gold in finding schemes that will really give me a worthwhile return for my time and money invested.
