I have experienced that alot of you sign up blindly online.
You all want to jump right in and get rich fast!!! In your hastiness you ignore to check the authenticity of the site. I am not saying all paying sites are bad I am saying they may be good but you should check them put first!!!
Here are the things I do before giving my trust to a site!!!
Join http://scambusters.org This site keeps imforming you baout scam sites and they will have updated info always about scam sites.
VIsit this site http://brodpicks.com it tells about genuine paying sites and other info about the sites.
Check to see if the site has given its cotact address with proper location and phone numbers. 99% of sites prove to be a big scam just from this step.
Try and read the report of the better business bureau before signing up at any site that promises to pay. Most of the scam busters claim they have a clean report with the BBB but that doesnt not mean what they say is true or false. It may mean that BBB has not prepred and report on them.
These are also a good sites to research scams http://www.scamreviewsies.com/index.htm

You are so right. I never join a program unless they list their phone number and address. That's a good starting point.
Thanks for that valuable information.

I fully agreed with you that lots of us were sign up blindly without doing any search before we sign up in hope to make some extra earnings and am one of them previously...LOL..As for now I will do domain search, those scams review sites and forums to try to reduce the risks to join any scams sites. Thanks for sharing with us on those informative scams reviews sites:)Anyway am a member of "scambusters" too.

Thank you for sharing this information so that we will all be more careful about giving our information to these sites or get our hopes up high about being paid and then get burned. There are definitely good sites and bad sites out there and people trying to use our information to their advantage. I have noticed that some sites will not reply to emails that you send them with questions. I will definitely keep these links in mind when checking out sites.
