Well I left this reading site long ago as I have seen that articles are becoming less day by day and everywhere on net said this site is scam ..but now people are telling they got paid 1 month ago and they have the payment proof also ...though I have not seen the proof but they said no that site is not scam but yes this is true that after 40$ the articles we receives is becoming low but once they reach to payout ...they were paid.please tell me is this working or still scam?

I can only say that I claimed my first amount on 18th August and I haven't heard a word from them. They are supposed to contact you "within 30 days".
I haven't seen any payment proofs so far which weren't fairly obviously forgeries.

It's up to you. Personally, I quite enjoy reading some of the articles. By the way, if your reading time (as timed by their system) is too fast or not consistent, they WILL refuse your payment!

Readbud is a scam. The fact that they refused to pay those who first reached the payout is a valid proof it is a big scam. A proof to this is this http://www.bukisa.com/articles/323273_readbud-get-paid-to-read-articles-a-certified-scam
After this information, I don't think I should keep working on this site. Yes they might have paid a person or two to save their reputation and so that they could keep cheating. But that does not make them free from the liability of not having paid many people who completed the payout.

They are a scam. It doesn't matter if they pay 1 person. They still havn't paid everyone else waiting for a payment. I'll never do anymore work for them.

i read some article about readbud.
they say that it is possible that this is scam
and theres also a possible it is not..
because of higher amount of each article, thats why they are confuse,
but i currently using it now,
i'm in $30 dollars and near to reach the payout amount.
so goodluck to me

i hear this all the time and yes some people get paid but only the ones that can get tons of people to join, and they get paid cause of all the people working under them if they quite everyone under them does to its just a way of working and fixing things so that they can have a scam that sounds like its not

Yes even i think they are scam.I reached 15$ so early,which website can afford to give you 1$ a day that too only for reading articles? Websites which dont have forums are almost scams,so i dont want to waste my time.But if anyone get the payment then i would try my luck too.
