Before i join any earning sites, I will first search if there are payment proofs uploaded by members in different sites or discussions and forums. I am just wandering why they hide the UNIQUE TRANSACTION ID and to where the payment has been sent. I dont know why they hide such that information. I donth think so that internet spammers could use such that information in stealing money form ones paypal account or whatever money processor. Can anyone tell me why we need to hide that said information in posting payment proofs??

Think the Transaction ID number hiding has to do with just preventing people messing with you, by trying to claim a refund or something. As for the hiding of personal ID, that's a simple personal preference. As in a sense the more your ID is out there, the more potentially "bad" people could see it. They will still need your PW though. I personally cut the transaction id off the top of the picture. But do not block out my ID, cause I want people to see it's my payment proof. Tip:monetize your payment proofs. People look at them,should get paid for it.

About this problem I also feel confused,so I can't very correctly judge an earning project on Internet of authenticity,but I think it should still be considered unsafe right,though I really can not imagine among the contact where,but now that the situation is that we can do just accept it.

Apparently you are concerned that someone is going to put up a fake payment proof? I'm not sure how you can validate for sure, unless you get information from the user and then contact the company to confirm. People must feel it is important to block out the Transaction ID. Maybe that is smart, or maybe it is just something people think will help. I am not sure.

Well it depends. Sometime for me, it is because I would love to show my payment proof. However I try hide those informations that can jeapodise me by anyway. However I try to consider if that is really useful. I seen too many frauds in my life that I totally felt unsecure trying to post something on the net :(
