Since there are several scam sites flooding online to the advantage of their own benefits, I am totally disappointed upon learning that several persons have been deceitfully ployed with their misrepresentations. Since, I don't have enough time to surf the web, I would appreciate it very much if you could list it down here all those earning sites that are reliably known to you to be an scam sites so that necessary precautions be attained to all of us. Thank you....

@ deva, you can try to cash out. If you are lucky they pay you.If you're unlucky, they ban you. You have a 30% (or lower) chance of getting paid.

To deva: This is what you should do: dont get youre payout because you can wait 1 year and still havent got youre payment yet so you shouldnt do it at all.
To other one: Well there isnt much i could do warn other users and delete my account but there wasnt alot i could do so thats pretty much it.

Try raise a dispute with your pay source, and secondly your credit card company you can get this money back, cc companies can reclaim for up to 4months, I have sucessfully managed to get my money back from depacco.com, well not them but my credit card company and paypal.
A quick tip if you think you have been scammed or you are suspicious, take a screen shot of the web site and save it in a word document, for evidence shoud you need it. This can prove that perhaps you did have a certain amount of earnings. or refferals. If you dont know how to do that, press the print screen button, on the top right of your keyboard, then open a word editor or a picture editor and press ctrl+v to paste it in, the screen copy should paste you can enlarge it to see it clearly.
Hope that helps a bit

I'm just new to all these sites so I have not faced any scam situation yet. But yes I have heard many say that they have been cheated and its really sad to hear that. After all the hard work they do online they get nothing in return.
I will come to know within say 20 days time if I have been a victim to scam sites as by then i would reach the min payout on some of them. I already reached my min payout on myLot which is my first ever. But all say that myLot pays their members so I have faith that they will pay me too.
