Hello there, my dear fellows, i came across an advertisement before a few days. It read 'Get paid for traveling'... Wow, I said to myself.. Getting paid for traveling, is a great idea. Will they pay for my travel and also for my travel diary??? Have you seen anything like that? Do you know whether it is real or not???
Please let me know...

Can't be of any help here..dear one! BUT only one thing comes to mind..."IF IT SEEMS TO GOOD TO BE TRUE---it probably is! Seems a lot like all those notifications of all the money that you have inherited! I just smell a rat, whenever I see something like this...and I hope that you sincerely investigate before sharing any info!

Hi Pearl, it is likely those courier services.
Some large courier companies such as Fedex have their employees and planes to fly things overseas.
But for many smaller companies, they do not have full time employees who can do that.
So they have to hire many freelancers to do the job.
The restriction is that you must not have any check-in luggage, since the luggage is the goods to bring over.
You can only bring your hand luggage unless you are willing to pay for the extra charges.
You are getting just a small allowance to cover the cost of travelling for that one or two days.
And you might have to wait for ages for the connecting flights.

Good God... If that is the case then it'd be better to opt oit, and yet, for $200, I can survive all this... LOL. Its a huge amount if converted to our currency. I work for an airlines, so I know there are direct flights from SIN to SFO... They shouldn't have connecting flights.. That was bad! I'm sorry for your friend....

Hi, even if I know of such companies, they are all located in my country.
I do not know of any in your country.
As it is, my friend has tried out once, and he never wanted to do it again.
He was offered free return tickets, and a couple of hundred dollars for delivering goods from Singapore to San Francisco.
Since this job comes from a courier company, they got the cheapest ticket, and that meant many transits.
He had to wait for hours in different airports.
Since he had no intention of staying in a motel in San Francisco, he opted to return on the next available flight.
Later on, he missed a connecting flight in another city, and had to wait for another 12 hours for the next available flight.
By the time he reached home, he was a complete wreck!
Can you imagine his body suffered the change in time zone so many times in three days!

Man if this was true this could be the best way to earn money. but isn't it too "GOOD" to be true. I would certainly be a member of this kind of site, if there was one. thinking about it already got me excited. where did you find this site?
i'll trying researching about it now :)

Hi... Yeah, it is too good to be true... I did not believe it too. That is why I decided to write here... And everyone doesn't really like it. I guess, it is too early time for such schemes. Moreover, it might be a scam too... Please read the above posts... Thank you!

I don't think it's real ...i can't believe it ,,, if they do pay for your travel they may ask you do many things for them ,,

I have never seen such a thing. but I´d check it out before being too happy about it. It might be like those lotteries and money they give you if you send a lot of personal information that might fill your computer with the worst viruses

Oh yes dear, that is a huge possibility and that is what made me write here.. For I know that we have many experts here on these matters...
But if it is true then I'm sure you'll be very glad... I know you love to travel... We'll find out about it... Take care...
