I do NOT trust websites that you must sign up first BEFORE they give you any

details about the site. No terms of service, no faq, no contact details, nothing but a vague video that still after watching I dont know what the program is about. It seems to be a popular site but I wont say the name. My question is: do you trust websites like this?

Often I wonder, how they make up such a site. And I really wonder whether they get sign ups. Whenever I see sites like this, I get a feeling that its saying like "You id**t! What else business you would have than signing up wih me" or similar message. I don't even care to visit them next time. Sometimes, it would be apparent that a site has been made up by a rookie. In that case, I would just pity him/her.

Exactly, it kinda whispers to you "please sign up and let me scam you"

As long as they pay me, period. I have nothing more to say but at least if they are consistent in paying their members, nothing much so fuzzy about the details. But if they often change their rules, their TOS and FAQ, well, Houston we have a problem. I guess i might be doubting the site as well as keeping myself away from it as much as possible. And i would not recommend a friend to join specially, if i myself don't trust the site, nor did I get any payments from them. That's what the most problem we get. Some people, try to spice and add up ingredients to sites just to gain a point or something, even if they know from the start the site is a crap.

Yeah I cant stand when others hype up the sites, as if we dont have enough stuff to worry about trying to earn on the net. The thing is about your comment, I am talking about when you first pull up the site and how it looks. At this stage, you dont know if they are going to pay you. In fact, you dont know anything about the site. Dont you want to know HOW you are going to earn your money, before joining?

That to me is the first of the RED FLAGS I call them. When I go the page and see this the first thing I do is go to search and look for the reviews of the site. Usually I get negative results so I just let it go to another scam artist. I will not join a site unless I can read something about that particular site. I don't want to hear "oh this is just like ____, and you can make money" then there isn't any explanation of what that one is truly about. Nope I don't go there, I don't waist anymore time on it either. Look for those that give you the details of what you will be doing, to me those that don't just want to get you on a mailing list or something like that. Smile, you never know when someone just may need it.

Red flags is exactly my point! I get that same feeling and stay away. Thanks for great comment.

There are alot of them out there like that, so I do the research on every program before I join, that is my #1 rule. I feel that anyone that is looking for a program to work should do this, even if it is recommended by a friend, still look it up to make sure its something YOU want to do. Thank you for the best comment. 's

I must admit have joined a few programs based on a friends recommendation without checking the site out first. It has paid off so far since this friend is an excellent researcher.

I totally agree! I don't want to give out all my info and then find out that it is some crazy site....not to mention now they have my email address and I get all kinds of nutty emails. I just recently had to go through my "making money" sites and weed out all the less than adequate sites.

Definitely not, i wouldn't waste my time with those promising sites that would give you pretty good earnings. There is no free stuff in this world. If you wanna get rich and successful, you really gotta earn by yourself.

Same here Sergeantrom, I mean after all what do they have and other websites doesnt? Some times you do sign up and you end up with a totally new website and you wonder why did they do this?

I dont believe such a site. I 've experienced so many times now, the only thing i get is a bunch of emails get into my inbox. So i recommend you not to sign up, but you can try it if you like... Feel free to drop by at my free game sites: www.game4pal.com

I really do not trust sites that asks you about everything but do not share adequate information about the site itself. Imagine a site without a FAQ or a support administration address? It is a clear eveidence that the site is a scam or will turn out to be a scam in a week or two. Never give anything about yourself in the internet specially in sites that seems to be too fishy. You must be observant and cautious. You might end up having tons of spam mails if you are not careful on who you give your e-mail address and other informations about yourself.

No i do not trust sites that will not let you know what they are about before signing up...What are they trying to hide is the first thing that i would think of, and what are they going to do with your info once they get it.

If nothing else, they have your email to sell to other sites and thats a way for them to earn money.

No I do not trust sites like this. They ask you everything about yourselves before telling you anything about themselves. Sometimes they are set up so well that you just think you have to give ur email and thats it, but giving your email is just the first step. Sometimes these sites are very good at luring you in and I have fallen in their trap a couple of times.
