I guess the first tip off here would be that part of the company is based in Lithuania. Not that I have anything against Lithuania but usually companies that have split ownership like this don't pay out after the first month or so. They can get away with it because they are governed by different rules regarding e-commerce and mostly because people think that they can't get the money that is owed to them without a huge hassle. If you do decide to try this, it would be interesting to see the results but I can't see a site give away free money. Even at myLot, you have to have quality posts and such to make what you make.

That is the one thing I noticed. The lithiania thing, so many scams are based out of the country, so they can avoid our regulations.

I am sure we can't take it literally. The main problem is hidden between their offer. So keep away from such programs.

i agree with you, we need to check out the company, what they are really doing in business? How they can survive in long term? Avoid scam! There is no free lunch in this world!

Definite scam. First off, anything not in the US or UK is tough to follow the money and if needed sue. Nothing in life is free, let alone something via the net, so be cautious. And, my guess is they're asking for some account numbers of something whether it be your bank (to supposedly deposit in) or your credit card to pay for shipping and handling or some fees. I'd definitely say SCAM.

Most of those things that say you can get that much money that fast are a scam, or else everyone would be doing them you know?

There are less than 70000 because many people prefer to find a job that pays more than 10 or 20 dollars a month .

That is what I was thinking, but it does not appear that this is scam and there are still less then 70K people here.

I think it's simply a case of 'too good to be true'... There's no *way* there is a site that is happy to give $300 per member every two days... It's highly unlikely that this is an actual paying site, is there maybe a forum on it where you can ask people? The links on my computer aren't working, otherwise I'd look for myself.

i would be very carefull about that sort of deal if i was you, nobody gives money away for nothing, and if do some more research on the site offering these deals, you will find out how bad a lot of them are, here is what usually happens, you sign up, thats ok, then you will get heaps of emails from other sites maybe saying you have won loads of money in a lottery, or whatever, your spam box will fill up quickly, try and unsubscribe to them, you still get the same emails, but all of a sudden, their address keeps changing, get some of the d.n.s and trace them, see where they end up, most will go to obscure european country's, such as RUSSIA, LITHUANIA, etc, they have not got the same laws as america or australia, if you are really unlucky, you will also get one that has a trojan attached, now they have your email contact list, bank account details, and all your passwords for say, yahoo, msn, and now your account is being used for the same thing you are trying to stop, there has been some problems in australia where some pensioners have answered the same sort of good deal?, some of them lost their money from their bank accounts, they had the same thing, mined account details, and the list of problems goes on, some of these scams can even get you into a court battle, because there have been a few money laundering scam for unwary people out there, and unfortunatly they are illegal, but if you get caught up in them you are still to blame as if you started it your self, so i would be very wary if i was you, the perpetrators usually change servers on a regular basis, or use public proxy servers, and rarely if ever get caught, but ultimatly it is your choice, just be carefull!

Try to remember, especially for Internet based offers: "If it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is." "Don't let greed cloud your judgement." "There is no such thing as a free lunch."

i really can't tell but it's better to be safe than sorry. i haven't gone thru the site itself but if it's not really requiring you to pay any amount then maybe it's worth trying.we never can tell.who knows,we might lose a once in a lifetime opportunity if in case this is true.

There is a very high chance that that is a scam site because it shouldnt give you free money for just signing up, but hey why not giveit a try?
