Well i have been an old member there, and my first payment dates from 24 November 2008. You would think this makes it a trusted site but it doesn't. This site was bought by a new owner last year in April. I had a pending payment and it was sent to me by the new owner so i figured, hey, they still pay. Now when i reached the new limit of 50 cents, they lifted it to 75, then i reached 75 they lifted it to 1 $. I reached 1.01 $ and asked for payment. Then i canceled after 2 days and asked for 1.08 instead, i wanted a bit more. Well the payment was pending, but the next day it dissapeared and the money were never returned. I sent them a support ticket about the situation, and they deleted it with NO ANSWER - here is the picture proof of that. Guess what, they now have a minimum payout of 20$, they have 2 clicks that are worth 0.001$ and many clicks worth -0,05$ and -0,001$ - yes you heard correctly, they take money from you if you click. So bottom line avoid all the sites related - this list is taken from their "support center": 10centcashoutptc.com adonlyptc.com advertisingcentral.com americanamails.com boxofdollars.com clickerlounge.com clickpromotion.com dr-click.com gentrichclickingads.com hilbillyclicks.com hillbillyptc.com papaclicks.info papillon clicks.com scotlandclicks.com stormofcash.com Any site that ends in belle.com (for example arkansasbelleptc.com) So in conclusion, if you are a member of this site, stop clicking, if you are not, avoid it at all costs. Take care and hope this helps you all out there. PLEASE DON'T POST ANY REFERRAL LINKS IN MY TOPIC

Do you really need more proof than this ? :) My payment mysteriously dissapeared (not pending, not received, not canceled, vanished all together), yet they state on their been paid list that i have been paid. The minimum payout has gone from 0,50$ to 20$ - this is impossible for a site that has 2-3 adds a day that are worth 1/10 of a cent. Most of their adds are worth negative values (like -0.05$) and last but not least, the ticket about the money missing was deleted without response.

Woah, that's a huge list of scam sites in one go. I guess all those sites belong to the same network..? I dont know most of the sites but stormofcash has been there since I started my online quest. Didnt join it though, and disappointing to see a well promoted site turning to scam. Im pertaining to AmericanaMails. Most of the sites(not bux sites) that Im still on have at least one banner of their site. I guess the members should stop promoting those links. Or the other sites should ban the promotion of Americana. That's just to keep the interests of the members safe from being scammed. Thanks for the information about this. Sorry you didnt get your earnings on that site. Wish you luck on your next online venture.

Thanx for giving the information. I was really worried as to what all was going on when I saw the tremendous changes. First I saw that they had increased the payments from 50 cents to something like 75. I thought still it was ok. After some days when I merely checked my balance it said that the minimum payout now is 100 cents. I thought that to be ok still. Then I was just nearing the payout when to my horror I saw that 10 cents were reduced from my account. But then came the real shocker when I saw that the minimum payout had skyrocketed to a whopping not 1 not 2 but $20. And then something struck me and I started a discussion and then saw this one. Thanx again. I should not waste my time there, I think. Thanx again.

So you noticed it as well... i think they ripped off your 10 cents for those stupid -0.05$ adds. Don't waste your time on them anymore, it's not worth it. The funny thing is that i wanted to quit this site after payout anyway, as it has to low of a payout :))

That is really to bad, as sites seem to be turning scam more and more. I do feel for you though that you have a pending payment and you can't get it. It rewlly irks me when that happens. You think, oh well, they pay, and they are okay, and then all of a suddent, bingo, they are no more. Fortunately, the sires I am a member of are good paying sites, at least for now. I sure do hope they stay that way too. One enver knows when you join a site if hey are going to stay legit or go scam. I give them all the benefit of the doubt, and if and when I don't get paid, then I know that they are probably a scam. At least I don't have money invested in any of them, so that is a good thing too, as I have been scammed before, and it didn't feel good either. I dont' intend on ever letting that happen again. At least I hope it doesn't, and that is why I am doing free sites, as all I am out is my time and not money, and that is a good thing. Good luck to you and happy mylotting.

Hi there rosekiss. I don't invest either - the only site i invested were neobux and matrixmails (and even here i only used online earned money, never my own). It was said that like you i only used free sites, and i got paid about 8 times before... so it is normal to give some trust to a site like this, right ? I was a bit suspicious about the new owner but seeing that the new owner still paid the pending payments i thought hey, they still pay.
