I have shortbux bookmarked and today I found out that the url is replaced by this one: http://www.clicksomatic.net.
If I type shortbux.com I get an "Address Not Found" message.
The site is exactly the same as shortbux.
I read shortbux V2 and then they also call it clicksomatic???
I'm also wondering if it is a fishing site.
Do you have any news about this? Thanks.

I dont know why those people call it a scam even the site really pays. Its not the fault of the admin if the domain name is expired or what ever happened to it. If you will say that the site is a scam, justify it. Its unfair for the site owner to call his site a scam if he is really paying his member! So if we will state that a site is a scam, make sure it is based on our experience or majority of the people say it so.

Yes they pay their members right now. But the fact still remains that I was a coder for them, and they owe me $455. They refused to pay the bill and in turn have been lying about me and my abilities. They bought My script for their newest site. I developed the site to work how they said they wanted it too work. I even integrated flash into their design for them like they wanted. 1 week before their new site was to launch I asked for the money that they owed on their bill and they made up lies in order not to pay me. They have also been trying to bribe GPTBank to upgrade again. If GPTBank does not upgrade then they will need to find new investors to pay their members. GPTBank refuses to upgrade again.
Again...If they can not pay their coder, then how will they pay their members?

It is not the admins fault if the service provider refuses to give the same domain name as what they have before. If they would try to scam us, then why they effort to bring back the site even if its not the same domain name they use to have. Deduction of referrals doesnt mean they are cheating. Have you ever think that they need to do that just to sustain the stability of the site to pay its members? Thats business, even in real world. Companies layoff employees because they cant afford to pay them all. Gptbank doesnt put the site to their scam section because ever since the site keeps on adjusting the referral limit but still they pay. And i havent heard that they ask members to pay their fees, not at all.

No shortbux is not a scam and it has always paid its members. I did more research and I found the answer given by kumarpslv below. The admin is very active and he answers all questions on forums. take care.
