Readbud is a scam.

I really don't know why this topic is being posted so late. It should have been posted months ago. Apologies for that. But better late than never, I guess. Ok, so back to the topic. Readbud, the site that supposedly paid for reading and rating articles, is a big scam. It has not paid me, neither has it paid thousands of other hopeful users who had realized that the site is a scam, but decided to continue anyway.

Anyone who still has any doubts about this can do a simple Google search online. There will be only one answer posted by the users. Mind you, don't waste time reading full length positive reviews. They are being paid to write that. 

Until next post,
Happy Earning.

Paid to Post- TheDiscussionZone

TheDiscussionZone(TDZ) is a great way to earn a few quick bucks online. We all participate in forums. Then why not get paid for it? TDZ pays $5 for every 100 quality posts that you make(including threads). The sweetest thing about this site is that you can discuss about almost any topic that you want to and get paid. It is that simple. No complex rules to follow and helpful moderators makes this forum an enjoyable place to participate.

And yes, I would really like to apologize to the admin of TheDiscussionZone(TDZ) for delaying this post for so long. Mr. George, the admin of this site is one of the most honest owners I have ever met. He has dealt every query of mine patiently and has answered them promptly. Click the banner below to register.

Note: I do not know if they ask for referrer's name when you sign up, but if they do, please fill Cris09 in the referrer box. Though  I will not benefit in any way from this(you don't get paid for getting referrals), I would want the admin to know that I am doing my part in advertising his forum.(I had told him that I will try to publicize his forum as much as I can)  

Note2: While this should not be a problem, it is good to know that this forum currently pays only through Paypal.
Happy earning.

Cashium is back. Bought by new Palmbux owner!

Cashium is back, as they had promised. What surprised me was that it is now under the same UK registered company that bought Palmbux, when it had gone scam. It is said that Palmbux has improved and has started paying under the new regime. So it might be safe to atleast hope that Cashium does the same.

However, the site will not move to legit status, as long as I do not see a new proof of payment. As of now, I am really having trouble logging into their site. They are having some serious server problem. This is all I get when I login.

This site will be under watch and any changes will be posted here soon. Happy Earning

Almost lost $45 today. Just check this Scammer's audacity!!!!

This refers to the shocking incident I had today online. The Internet world is full of scammers waiting to make a meal of your hard earned money, and this incident is a proof of that.
I was chatting on Birejji today. I met a guy who said that he is selling Onbux direct referrals for $0.5. I was a bit surprised by the offer because it is not possible to sell Onbux direct referrals to another user. But I decided to play on, just to see what this guy has to offer. He sent me a mail that had the snapshots of his account and asked me to check it. He also insisted that he will accept payments in Liberty Reserve only and asked me how many referrals I needed. I thought of alerting the Onbux team about this and told him that I need to send a support ticket regarding this deal to see if it is allowed. He told me not to worry about it. He will send a ticket. Smart way not to get caught!! The rest of the conversation is in the form of email, which is given below.

Mail 1) Three attachments of "his" account snaps.

The last pic was what got me suspicious once again. Come on, we are dealing with onbux, why will someone send a snapshot of neoptc?!!!

I have given snaps of my gmail screen so that you get the entire conversation as it is. Please click on each pic if you need to read it with ease.(or keep ctrl pressed and click "+" to magnify the page)

This was really fishy. Why would someone delete such an account? And what would he get by doing it? Read on.

This gets really desperate now. Read on.

There is a lot of haste in his operation. Typical scammer's tactic. He does not want me to think. But I needed to keep him talking until I find out the truth.

Haa..Now he is trying to get me to shell out $23. Something is better than nothing. Read on to see how he lures me with additional offers when this tactic fails too.

OK. I had seen these snaps before. All the time I was talking to him, I was searching on Google for the same pics that he sent me. And I found them!! I had seen them before as an ad on some PTC site.

He had copied the pics from http://referrals-builder.info and tried to scam others by saying that it was his account snaps. Quite clever, but not clever enough. I have alerted the moderator of Birejji and suitable action will be taken.
Always remember, however enticing the deal may be, never make any payment upfront when you are not sure of the success of the deal.
I will keep you all updated with such incidents, so that you will be prepared in case you happen to meet smart fools like these.
Until next post, Happy Earning(And hopefully not spending :))

Ray of Hope!! Atlascash starts manual payment!

This is an update for the previous post. Atlascash.net, which had apparently gone scam has declared that it has started manual payments now. Let's see if they stand up to their promise. It would be really encouraging if they start paying again. Currently, they are only paying via Liberty Reserve.

Atlascash.net will be removed from Scam status once it is proved that it is paying again. As for Cashium, their account and login page is still under maintenance. Their status will be confirmed soon.

As for Klikerz, it seems that it has gone forever. Still, any new event regarding it will be posted here.

Until next post,
Goodbye and Happy earning.

Disappointing news!! Scam Alerts

Seems like this is a season of scams. Three sites that looked promising apparently went scam. And the most heart-breaking fact is that one of them is Cashium.net which was really paying well. The other two are Atlascash.net and Klikerz.com.
This is what Cashium had to say:

This message was later replaced with a message stating that they will be back!! Now the site loads up but the login page is still under maintenance.
I do not know if it will be right to call it a scam, because it is saying that it will bounce back. In any case, we will get the answer in some days. Either it sorts out its problems with paypal, or it shuts down. I suppose it can only be literally called a scam after that!! Rumours say that Cashium is now purchased by Ifbux, which has its own set of server problems!!!

On the other hand, Atlascash claims that it had a hacker attack and thus lost significant amount of money. It promised manual payments for all failed and incomplete cashouts by 16th November but no word since then. Its forum now has limited access, so all we can see there are positive Atlascash comments, posted during it's happier days. This is what the admin has to say:
Click here for Atlascash admin message

Nothing to be said about Klikerz. One fine day, I try to login and it directs me to a parked domain. Same state since then. Better if I forget about that site.

To sum it all, we have lost two really promising PTC sites and one new site. Just goes to show that a legit site today may not be legit tomorrow. Hence, never invest any money in such new sites which you cannot afford to lose.
Until next post,
Good bye.

Paid by Ro2

Just got paid by Ro2, the site that pays you to chat online. It was real fun to chat there. Even though the amount is quite small, please note that I got quite a handful of referrals for PTC sites from Ro2, which is not easy otherwise. That is why I stress upon the fact that if you are using PTC, then surely use Ro2. Here is the link to my previous post, in case you still haven't joined.
