I often time see people talking here and on forums about if a program is or is not a scam. These penny paying program I beleive fall under Small Businesses...is there not a link we can go to and check if they are a scam or legitimate program?

Type the name of the forum or program into a search engine and add the word scam and it will bring up anything that has been reported about that particular forum as being a scam. If there is nothing coming up, then nobody has complained about them.

Nope. Although some sites become aware of it and make it known. I'm working on this myself although, I'm not having much look but I would like to focus on helping them avoid sites. :) Kudos, ~Joey

Actually unfortunately, a lot of times you have no choice unless you wait for people to actually show proof of the program to you if it is a Scam or not. I personally myself have tried a lot of things, and at times not made anything, and other times done great with it even if others have not. But then there are tons of Scams out there as well you need to be Aware of. All we can do is be Cautious and hope for the Best really when trying to earn $$ online, but always remember, if it looks to good to be True, then it probably is.

There are a lot of scams out there. Really any that ask you to pay any amount of money or to complete offers are scams as far as I'm concerned. I'm not going to pay anyone to pay me. I actually have a blog where I talk about the programs I'm trying, the ones that have worked for me, and the ones which are scams. You can read my blog here: http://www.paidonlineops.blogspot.com
