MacoBux scams to Ads Only

Well this doesn't really come as a surprise, the site has had ad problems where members couldn't view any. Here's the e-mail from the admin..

hello members, macobux is going to change some things...
I can't pay members because there wasn't any purchase over 1 AND 1/2 MONTH so i decided remake macobux to only advertising company. I feel sorry for this but there is no way for me.

Hope you understand it. Thank you.

Also I would to recommend you this awesome new PTC which offer you premium if you will join there untill 10.000 members reached(at the moment is there over 7260 members registered) - site is still in prelaunch. check news section on their forum. It's not regular PTC, check it and you will know it.

Thank you.

Macobux Team

Take not of the part which says, I can't pay members because there wasn't any purchase over 1 AND 1/2 MONTH. This means that the site was putting up ads which was costing the owner and one of the reasons decent PTC sites go from paying to a get paid to click ads scam site.

Most of us would prefer to be paid from a site, we've seen enough PTC Scam Sites and are just hoping that there would be a few more paying sites. While it is good that the admin is keeping the site as an Ads only site, the truth is, people lost REAL MONEY when making purchases from the site.

I will probably not click at the site because I prefer to use Traffic Exchanges where you get better value for your clicking. The site really didn't last that long, so t's goodbye MacoBux

Is 247Bux a scam?

247Bux is a reasonably decent PTC site that has paid members and will continue to do so, but let us take a closer look at the site in this little 247Bux Preview

Unsustainable PTC Site
No matter which way you look at it, when your advertising revenue is not going to cover the expense you're paying to Standard Members, then your site is screwed. Currently, 247Bux is charging a low $6.95 for 1,000 ad links which is a good thing for advertisers. However the site pays $10.00 to standard members for viewing those 1,000 ad links, which means for every 1,000 Ads, the site is losing the minimum of $3.05.

No money for Referrals and Upgraded Members
Most people are under the illusion that a PTC site can function when members purchase Referrals and Upgrades from a site, but the problem is. If the site is struggling to finance thier Standard Members, where will they get the money for members that purchase from the site? Revenue from Sales of Referrals and Upgrades will not last long, and with 247Bux, that is already losing money, this isn't a good sign.

Click on a certain amount of Ads to be paid
Now there is nothing wrong with requiring members to click a certain amount of ads before they will get paid when it is something already stated before a member joins. However there is something seriously screwed up when a PTC site decides that's the way they should go while the site is already been online for a few months.

Instant Paying Premium Members only
NeoBux doesn't need to do it, it pays all members instantly, so why do other sites think they can get away with it? In short, the site is struggling for advertising revenue, so they must promote Upgraded Membership to get money, it is called a Ponzi Scheme. This seems to be a common scam that PTC sites use when they have low advertising prices, or have too many ads that the admin has put up. While it is a benefit to upgraded members, I personally wouldn't upgrade on any site where thier advertising revenue is not going to be enough to pay standard members.

What the hell? Invest then lose Referrals?
Who on earth thought of that scammy rule? It shouldn't matter how much profit a person makes at a PTC, but to penalise them for making that profit is complete stupidity. Members that are purchasing from a PTC Site should expect a decent return with no added strings, BUT we've seen sites like IsabelMarco pulling the same excuse regarding "profit" and deleting referrals.

IndyMom will can invest more 4 times after that she will change to platinum, it's make her referrals gone and she will earn 0.1$ per click and etc. ( All of rules and conditions will show on TOS soon, i'm still create it.) - Admin, 247Bux

Promises to pay standard members
With the new "clicking a certain amount of ads" rule, this should give 247Bux the chance at getting money to pay standard members which is an excellent thing. But will the site be able to last over the long period doing the same? Absolutely not, eventually it will turn out like IsabelMarco which pays only Upgraded Members. Or like a Mike Pratt site like Earn3 which has the daily limit cashout scam.

Conclusion: Is 247Bux a scam?
Since it is continuing to pay members, the site is functioning below the scam radar. However it is certain that if the admin continues to underfund thier account by low advertsing, the site is destined to join many similar scams that have low advertising prices.

With it's new investment rule, the site is not worth investing in, actually the site being unsustainable is the reason you should stay clear. You can take the chance with this site if you choose.

Insta-Bux Scam PTC Site now gone

Well it is official, there is no longer a page at the get paid to click ads scam site Insta-Bux. It really doesn't come as much of a surprise, it only is irritating that we have wasted our time at the site. Worse still I decided to do a preview of the site and it turned out to be junk.

Ahhhh.... well, it's better that the pain of the scam was quick, than learning too late that it was a scam.

BuxKingdom deleted my Account

Well looks like we have another get paid to click ads scam site. For no reason at all, my account at BuxKingdom has gone. The site has been struggling over the last few months where there has been only 1 ad per day. I had been clicking that ad since it was a quick thing to do. Now I find that my e-mail account no longer exists. This is a clear signal that the PTC site is heading toward scamming members. If you were a member then I'd advise you to stop wasting your time at that PTC scam site.

Is Bux.To a Scam?

Of all the PTC sites out there, the one which raises the most doubt about being a scam site is Bux.To. I have been waiting since April 2008 for my payment, I find that inexcusable for a PTC Site to delay payments for 8 - 9 months and counting. I'm almost convinced the site is a PTC Scam from my own experiences.

It has all the ingredients of a paid to click scam.

Self Sponsored Ads
Throughout the year I have been a member of Bux.To, almost 50% of thier Ads were put up by the owner. One of thier Ads, which is for T-Shirts has 657768 or will cost the owner $6577.68. In the past there were ads for Upgrading and purchasing Referrals.

Unrealistically slow Payments
The Get Paid to Click Ads site NeoBux is proof that a site can pay instantly and in big cashouts, it probably is the measure of how good a PTC can be. Waiting 8 - 9 months for a payment is completely ridiculous, it is an attribute of all the scam sites.

Bux.To the PTC Scam Site
I have to concur with people whom have been calling the site a scam, some have reported that thier accounts were deleted after asking about thier payment. These are members that have purchased from the site, now they are worse off because of the scammers at Bux.To.

Dump the Site
If you're not a member of Bux.To, then don't sign up, you'll be wasting your time. If you are a member and waiting for a cashout, just click an ad a day, once you get paid, convert anything remaining into advertsing, then dump the site.

Conclusion
I thought it was about time I did a bux.to review which I guess this post represents, it has been a disappointing get paid to click ads site to be a member of, and the number of excuses they have given over the last year is unacceptable. Some people have been paid there, a fraction of the members waiting for cashout, but don't you be fooled into thinking they will pay you.

Insta-Bux.Net Previewing a new Instant CashOut Site

Insta-Bux.Net is a get paid to click ads scam site which is now gone, if it returns, don't bother with it

Insta-Bux History 17 Dec 2008 - Bandwidth Exceeded 22 Dec 2008 - Site WatchListed 09 Jan 2009 - Site is a SCAM and is gone

Hahahahahahaha, I'm on a roll here, this is yet another Banner which I filched from a Forum, I'm getting good at this.

Today we have a brand spanking new Instant PayOut Site, I love these sites and should include more of them in my blog for you folks. Insta-Bux looks to be a good site from what I've seen so far.

Really good earning rates at this site, and if it's like any of the other Instant CashOut Sites, this one is going to explode. All the nice things you'd expect from an Instant CashOut site is there, rented referrals are available, although they are a little pricey for a Standard Member.

They have a weekly upgrade which looks tempting, $5, I'd guess that you could upgrade, buy 20 Referrals and should earn your money back. As for me, I'll just plug my blog all over the place like I do because I'm a cheapskate :)

The layout of the site is very nice, it's quick to click the ads which is refreshing, I am looking forward to how the site shapes up over the next few months, for now I'll be there clicking away, I hope to see you there :)

Click for a Buck? Yea Right

Sooner or later you will run into a get paid to click ads site which is promising a Buck for each Ad you Click, naturally anyone with a sound mind would think you will be getting paid a real dollar for viewing an ad. Now if earnings were that simple, they'd be a hundred thousand millionaires which earnt thier cash through ad clicking.

These are all paid to click scams because what you will be REALLY earning is a fraction of a cent. Let's look at some examples of this advertising fraud.

KazarianGPT
I've actually done a posting regarding this site on my blog, you can find the link here

MysteryPTC
Run by the same people whom bought you KazarianGPT, offering $1 per click but getting around $0.01 per advertising link in revenue. Theres no way you will be getting paid a buck per click, in fact I doubt you will even get a cent of real money per click.

ClickForABuck
Probably the worst case of the buck a click sites, it's most recent purchasing special for $20.20, you could buy 560,000 link credits. Which means that's probably how many links you will need to click to earn even a fraction of the $20.20 it is getting. Really, not worth your time to be at that site.

Thier Terms of Service
Nestle in thier ToS, you will find something along the lines, that the money you earn isn't real and is based on the advertising revenue the site gets. In other words, those PTC Sites can decide how much they pay you for the clicks you do and can change thier mind at a drop of the hat. And that is part of thier ptc scam, what you are led to believe that you will be getting a buck, is in fact up to the admin of the site how much you will get paid.

Move along, move along
Some people do like those sites, perhaps they like monopoly money as well, hehehehehe. The truth is, you're much better off at other PTC Sites that are showing you how much you will really earn from clicking ads, than the click for a buck get paid to click ad sites where you'll never earn a "real cent" per ad click.

DailyCent, no Surf Page and No Forums

Well looks like it is official, well at least from where I am looking. DailyCent has no surf page although you can log in. The Forum is down which is the best indication that the admin is about to do a runner. After failing with thier first site 1stBux, it looks like DailyCent is on the same path of being a ptc scam site. No real surprise if we look at the evidence, so for 2009, DailyCent becomes the first scam site I've joined of the year. For many of us, this is very frustrating, it's of no wonder that people are avoiding earning through get paid to click ads sites.

ChillBux, another Mike Pratt Site

Mike Pratt runs all the GPTNetworks sites that all have a problem that there are too many ads which he is getting no advertising revenue for.

This latest PTC Site named Chillbux follows the same formula as his other PTC Sites, in this case there are 6 Ad Links for his other sites, 2 Ad links for upgrading and buying referrals. He will be losing a minimum of $0.08 for every standard member that is clicking. I've decided not to join any more of his sites because they are ponzi sites, where the income comes mainly through upgrades and referrals.

I wouldn't be surprised if ChillBux runs into the same problems as thier last Instant PayOut Site, DingoBux. Also, it wouldn't surprise me to see a new PTC Site from GPTNetworks.

BuxOut, Instant PayOut and Instant Scam

Baaaahhhhhhh....

I had just joined BuxOut and it turns into a scam site, heres thier announcement...

Buxout Closed

We apologize for closing, but we paid out all our capital and revenue has drastically slowed down over the past month. We are afraid we do not have the resources to continue running the site.
Any questions or concerns can be directed to support@buxout.com
Thank you for being a member of Buxout.com

Even if Revenue had slowed down, there shouldn't be a need to close if the site was run properly. I've said it before, if PTC sites are only showing ads from advertising revenue AND the advertising prices can cover what they are paying members, then there is no reason a PTC Site should close.

So this PTC Scam has been exposed, quicker than normal because they were bitten by thier Instant PayOut Policy. Good riddance to a trashy PTC Site. It screwed members big time.

Is kazariangpt a scam site?

Screenshot of kazariangpt site


So is kazariangpt a scam site?
The screen shot I have taken would point to the site being a scam, let's look at the first problem with the site.

$1 per click

This picture which was taken from the screenshot of the site shows that you will get $1 per click, most importantly, paid to your alertpay. It later states that your Balance will increase by $1.

Purchases continue with the real money theme

Another part of the picture shows that you can purchase from the site, in this case a $4 PTCVersary Special. So far nothing seems amiss.

However, and here's the scamming part
When you sign up to the site, you are informed that the site uses thier own value for a dollar. The advertising is fraudelent, the site uses mystery bucks but gives every impression that you are earning real money. As the first picture showed, $1 click is linked to Alertpay and Paypal. Last time I checked those Payment Processors, neither had mystery bucks as an exchange currency. Purchases, as seen, in the second picture are in US Dollars, not mystery bucks.

Therefore, it is likely that every person believes they are getting paid real money, and need to pay real money for purchases. kazariangpt is an example of an advertising scam and wouldn't survive a legal battle in court.

Avoid it at all costs, it's GPTNetworks, which are notorious for getting little advertising revenue due to the fact they continue to promote all thier other sites.
