Hello Fellow Lotters I am worried about the site readbud, I joined this site a week ago and the way I am earning over there is really surprising for me, in one week I got almost $9 for just reading and rating articles. Due to this type of earning I am in doubt about them, but can any one over here got paid by them or is it a scam site Please! let me know, because from other sites, I am unable to get $1 or more in one day without any referral but over here, I am getting $1 and more in one day...:) Have a nice day...:)

Researched on it and found out many negative comments and most people say it is a scam. Well I spent time there too but haven't reached the payout yet so definitely not going to continue wasting my time there anymore.

Hi Toniganzon I agree with you, most of the responses are against this site and I concluded this site as scam site. Yeah, I agree with you that we should not waste our time on this scam site and should concentrate on the other legit sites....:) Thanks for the information Have a nice day dear...

I was unfortunately one of those scammed by readbud. I went through months of reading all those articles (although I learned a lot from the articles), and went I finally reached payout, I immediately asked for payout. It's been almost two months, and not a centavo in my paypal account from readbud. I emailed them a follow-up and no reply until now. So unless you enjoy reading their articles then you'd be better off discontinuing readbud.

You mean you have taken 50 dollars from them and they transferred it into your account. If you have already got it then you are really great, because no one over here have taken a penny from them...:) Have a nice day...:)

Yeah, I think they shall never pay, because on the basis of above responses people have reached their payouts and after more than four months they are not yet paid, so I think you should not expect payouts from them...:) Have a nice day...:)

Readbud is a scam so don't you ever get fooled by their too good to be true scheme. One valid proof that they are scamming people is here http://www.bukisa.com/articles/323273_readbud-get-paid-to-read-articles-a-certified-scam So I advise you stop spending more of your precious time at Readbud. It does not pay at all. Have a nice day!

Thank you very much for your very nice response, I totally agree with you that we should not waste our precious time on readbud and should concentrate here or other legit sites. The article which you referred is really very good and an eye opening article, they are really doing the things systematically and with certified scam. Thanks again for sharing Have a nice day...:)

It is, no doubt, a scam site. As you get near to your cashout, the fewer they give out articles to read. And besides, I have not heard anyone says they have been paid by that site. There are lots of scam sites there. Be careful. They will only waste your time and money.

After reading responses over here, I just deleted the website from my profile because I dont want that due to me some one else got problem, but you know, I signed up over there due to one of my friend at myLot and I thought that at profiles of every friend there are legit sites but now I came to know that not every site on profile is legit Thanks for your nice response Have a nice day dear...:)

I only heard it just now when you started a discussion about this site.Some responded that its' a scam site, anyway if your still in doubt please do some searching in forums specially mylot because this is where real people meet and exchange ideas and experiences especially on line earnings.

Hi Stanely It is very good that you just heard it now, there are some other discussions too regarding this site. I agree with you that we must consult with our co member at myLot but you know, I joined this site due to one of my friend at myLot and before this I was too thinking same like you that any site on the profile of a myLot member is legit but now I think we should also need to look for different discussions and if that site is not in discussion then we should start discussion so other members who are already members can contribute to it. Thanks for nice contribution Have a nice day dear...:)

Its a scam, you should search Readbud here and see the 100's of posts about it already posted. There is no way they can pay the amount they promise and many have reached the cash-out amount only to get denied payment. Stick to those thats that are legit and known to pay. Best of luck.

Hi Dear Bnd This is the reason that I started this discussion, they were really paying a very handsome amount for just reading articles and this thing made some doubts in my mind, so I thought I should consult my friends at myLot and now by reading responses over here, I too left it like you, but thanks God that I did not wasted too much time over there. Thanks for nice contribution from you, I am glad to see your response over here and Welcome to myLot Have a nice day....
