scams!!

Duno was simply a victim of greedy scammers, and bad management. Now that the scammers that flooded that site, is gone, the owner is working on a more secure way of preventing it from happening again in the future. In the mean while he has started a daily jackpot to pay it's members. I admit that the site should have been better setup prior to accepting members. That the owner can take responsibility for, and has.

I would define a scam as someone who didn't pay you. Or only half paid you. Or a website claiming all this great stuff and then giving you nothing.

That's interesting, I didn't know Duno had changed their way of operating. Does this jackpot apply every month? i.e. do you have to reach the minimum every month? I suppose most people don't have time to devote to these sites every day. Sometimes you have time, sometimes you don't. Which is why people like the accumulator system. Imagine if MyLot said that if you didn't achieve a minimum of $30 per month, you got nothing for the work you put in! What Duno has done is a scam if they've applied it retrospectively. If they had paid everyone what they were due, and then said, from now on you only get paid each month if you reach the minimum and lose everything if you are under, people would know where they stood. But if they told people there was an accumulator in place and then abruptly changed their minds after people had wasted time on the site - that's a scam. Most scams are about getting people to waste time and then not paying.

I do not think it is a scam. There are only a couple of people who did not get paid and I figure they were ceaters,and spammers. I saw people post saying things like 'Hey everyone, lets pass it on. We all go post three questions,then answer them,that way there is more money going around." It had become a joke. The top pay was 80% to the first to answer. Even If all they said was "Yeah" or "I don't know!?" I for one am glad. I spend time there as well as here and like it much better now. I may not be making money, but there is always a chance of it.

First let's not get into who spammed who I was there and watched it unfold. Dan got himself screw up because of his payout scheme. When that didn't work out rather than just let people know he just changed the payout rules and started the whole spamming issue because of it. As for it being a scam, well I would not say that, just poor planning and no communication, until it was already screwed.

duno.com is not a scam now and never was. It is a site in crises at the moment. It was started with good intentions but the guy who started it had too much faith in human nature and did not build the safeguards into his site that were needed. Some people quickly learned how to game the site and the site found itself in trouble, owning more than it could pay. I understand that the site administer is now trying to revise the site and make it what he had originally intended it to be. I see a lot of the same names here that I saw there in days gone by. When everybody bailed most of the good content went with them. The internet is a very Darwin place where content is king. Without quality questions and answers duno.com will die and that would be a shame because it has the potential to be another good place to exchange ideas and information. If you can find it in your self to drop by there once in a while and leave a good question or answer you can help it survive. Don't do it for the money, you won't make any. Do it to help keep a struggling community alive. No, I have no connection with duno other than being a member so the only thing I have to gain by this post I to have another place to go for intelligent discussions.

people complain because they had been promised to be paid by following the rules of a certain site. peole tried their best and spend most of their hours spending in that site because they believe that they will get paid at some point. that's why people complain. all their efforts just go to waste.

I am a member of duno.com I signed up because its promising... I spend lot of time there hoping that i will get paid of effort i dedicate to the site. Actually im almost on a half way to minimum payout then an amount of $46, trying to reach a $100 payout for e-gold. But suddenly their rules was changed, and they cancel my account. Its a puzzle for me, because i do not know the reason behind, why they cancel my account? Im not saying that the site is scam, although i dont have any proof of earnings from other members too. oh well i just charged it to experience.... Mylot is still the best for me....

I adivice about this site sometime ago but it is very sad when some people dont listen my discussions at all. because long time ago pople said this site never pays for them and what they did is just give a copen to buy some some else. but they said it did work at all. so I think this could be scam....

No, I think duno is scam, it pay member nothing, though it don't need pay money for it, the member do work hardly and want to get payment, the site owner promise to pay member, but now a few people get paid, most of people not be paid. I joined it and I spend a lot of time on it, but I have not ben paid. I am so angry with it...

A scam is also changing your payment procedures without any given notice and clearing out the legal earnings of the people who you promised (who agreed to the terms before joining)to pay according to scale. I had just reached the minimum when the owner came online and announced he was tired of people asking many questions online if Duno ever paid out and was changing the way he would pay out that day. Thats not business, thats fraud. Some lost up to $100.00 to be told they have to participate in a daily "jackpot" to be paid from then on and the amounts were pitiful; $1.00 - $5.00 a day if you were lucky. When asked for ckarification, he shuts down his email. So you like it so much - stay there.

I think you should leave duno.com! Stay most of the time here my friend. Lets enjoy the myLot life! ^_^

For me, scam, is the money that is not being paid at all. So that means that site is trying to deceived you so why you are waisting money to that site it is waisting time!

i frankly don't have any opinion on this but i can confidently say that you claim u did not have to pay anything what about all the time you spent on the net. What about all the referals you might have done have you considered that your reputation might have been tarnished . Any site that folds up and leaves people hanging like this is a scam and thats my personal belief.

Everybody hate scam. Why have scam web site in the world. Because they are bad people and they want to take your money. Don't let them do that, just stick with mylot.

I completely agree with you. I think I wrote something like that in the idea section. Have you read those? People ar cursing and everything. I personally think it is pathetic.

If people joined under the premise that if they responded they would earn money and get paid then i say t is a scam, people should have been paid out what was owed to them regardless of wether or not they had reached minimum payout as they no longer had the chance too

i think a defination of a scam is something in which when u give something to someone to get something and u dont get that something because the someone took your something and never gave you there something.. lol.. in modern terms this means... if i payed you 50 dollars for a pair of shoes and u dont give the shoes to me and u take my money.. lol thats a scam

yeah. i agree with you. we have no right to complain and dig out holes just to say that this site is a scam. scam, in my own words, means a contract without a real promise. people used to complain but when they realize that they have no right, why would they do it again?

I think that was a scam and would be really annoyed if I worked hard trying to earn lots of money on this site and then suddenly lost it all. It has happened to me before on another site and I haven't been back to that site since.
