It's very dangerous to mention the scams as you anyone can tell you who have read my last few topics..I got raked over the coals and spoken to in not so nice a way when a site I really believe is a scam was mentioned here.
I think people become so frightened to lose a few pennies that they say nothing..They know a site is a scam but fear being locked out..
I know a scam and it's trying to copy mylot and even stated they left here..mylot ..for that reason..

So as not to frazzle anyone, I won't mention any names, although I've tried a lot of them... The primary scam that seems to be going around is a self-selling system (this takes many forms and I've tried at least 20)... These systems, in and of themselves, are crap, and don't work. However, SELLING these systems CAN make you some money. So it becomes a point of buying it, reselling it to buyers who find out that reselling it is the only value it has.

The selling of redundant software is a million pound/dollar industry, taking into account local sales and people wanting to make some cash on second hand goods, after all, money is what makes the world turn around and supposedly thrive, although people in the 3rd world would not agree with that bold statement.
People these days will sell stuff, that is rubbish, only to profit at the expense of us the consumer, over the internet there is a an aspect of being anonymous when required so scams can prevail more often.

I have been in many of these programs and have lost a lot that i worked for, but i never did the paid upgrade I always remained a free member and cashed out when I could. When a site didn't pay I just dropped it, there is always a risk, but as long as I ony wager my time and not my money I can deal with it. But it would be nice to have a place to check these different programs out before wasting time. Also I never went after a downline, because I would never recommend a program unless I knew it paid.

I do not feel it is my duty. I like to share information if it helps another though. No pressure for me. I appreciate you bringing these to our attention and it would be great of others would share their experiences to verify the badness of these sites you shared. We do need to be wary of the theives in sheeps clothing. Thanks again.

I only mean to bring this to peoples attention to expose some awareness of scams and the way some people fall for them as they think they are good earners and they just end up wasting their valued time and effort doing these sites all for nothing if they are scams.
A note to all: is not to be blinded by fast or quick earnings/cash, but to check and verify that these sites are in fact genuine, by doing a search on them first, you'll save on frustration and disappointment later on, promise.
Crooks who set up these sites with the intention of not providing a service that pays or even works for that matter should in my opinion be reported and identified and dealt with in the appropriate manner.

I have been though some string of scams like surfjunky and cashcrate and few others.... Now i have become choosy in selection of schemes and started to analyze the reliability and only then take up the scheme.

Thank you so much for the link waynet (I took it form the first response) It is goof of you to warn all of us. I have been scammed only once before I joined mylot..that was by surfjunky.com I reached up to $120 and never got paid a single penny:( That was very frustrating, and I decided to think a million times before joining any site.Even on mylot I read many users' discussions on proof of payment and was kinda convinced this was a genuine site.

It is a very good idea ... and I have checked out your site. It is well built and a lot of tips are very true and helpful
I am mostly in surveys, and so far the only on I have found to be a scam is "Vindale Research" ... they make you buy a product telling you they will refund it plus give you an extra to answer the survey ... well the idea would be good if they actually paid you! But they don't...
Also I am trying a new site called Garden of gold, I have bought a station and I am waiting for the return but it's been 15 days and ... nothing at all ... I am not saying they are a scam but I am just sharing that with you and if anyone has heard of the site , please let me know
thank you
