When I was new in the world of online earning I fell into several scam ptc sites and other sites that weren't paying. As far as I remember more than 10 ptc sites scammed me and additional 10 more sites like paid to post,paid to do survey(like the famous AWsurveys) and paid to upload scammed me as well. Now before I even join a certain site I'll do several research first to make sure if it is really paying or not. Even the great google have many negative reviews from it's members making money from google ads. There are really many sites to earn online but I'm sure that more than 60% of these sites are scam. How about you?

Awww.. that's really not good to know. I hope that I can prevent that from happening to me. Anyway, I want to know if a site that's asking for a fee is a sign that its a scam already?? Cause I have seen such sites and never dared to join them. Plus they have this discounts and if you'll try to close the tab then they will again offer you for another discount. Is that a sign that it's a scam??

May be yes, may be no.If the site offoring a products, the chance of getting scam are less.But it isn't as easy as to make money like what they have said. But if the site was an investment or a matrix site, don't bother your self.

Hmmm.. have you ever heard of the site RealTranslatorJobs.com??? It's also offering such thing. Though according to them, I have to pay $68 for a membership fee!!!. Isn't that kind of suspicious?!?!?!

Yes, that's so true. And I wish that no one have to fell on any such sites again. Why can't there be more genuine sites than the growing number of scam sites?!?!?!... Let's just be careful guys. And don't let anything fool us from making the right choice.

I 2 years as I work online I have been in so many scam sites that its hard to count. But I still am here :) I work now on legit sites from my experiences. From time to time it happend that I join some scam, you never know when the site will turn into scam. I should say that the percentage of scam site is much bigger than 60%, I can say its about 90%.

I didn't say 60% I did say it's more than 60%. You may be right since in reality it's it close to 90%.

I've only had two sites scam me, Onbux and Cashium, fortunately, I never lost any money because I was smart enough not to invest in them.

Yes that's true I have been into signing up for online earning websites and its so frustrating when you knew that they are scam efforts and time consume was so disappointment. You have nothing to do for the second time around, what i did is to take careful action and check everything about that website if legit or not. reading reviews and comments from others would be a good example of doing checking on it. By reading reviews and writes up from previous members who had experienced about it is pretty much as well.

I mostly doesn't look for earning money but I look for enjoyment with fun and this area is a place with fun. This is the reason why I here. Many of my friends are in wounder of online money making sites but till now they did not get any such good sites. Most of them they used before are just scams. Did you ever fall in scam sites ? What did you feel when you was cheated ?

I remember that i was a new bie in online earnings about three years ago and just like many people i fell to awsurvey too. At the same time, i found my lot. I never knew that my lot is the genuine one. So i open a discussion about aw survey and the member here told me that is a scam site. Since then i always ask mylot member to know whether a site is scam or not found my lot is ablessing for me

I've always been very careful about what sites I join but even I have joined sites that didn't last or were scams. One that comes to mind is Onbux, but luckily I never invested in it. I never invest a penny unless I'm sure the website pays without problems.
