How to know that a PTC site is a scam!

January 6, 2011 6:02am CST
I have been using some ptc sites for a while now and thought i would help others from wasting time on scam sites so here is what to look out for. 1) If the site is offering you $1 or more a click it is a scam there is no way a site can offer that as they will not make that much from advertising etc so they would not be covering their costs. 2) Read the TOS! On some ptc sites you will start clicking seeing your earnings going up and then when you request a cashout get maybe 10% of your earnings. On some PTC sited in the TOS it says the earnings are only a estimate and the value of earnings varies depending on the profit of the site. Avoid sites like this! 3) If there is no way to contact the administrator such as not support tickets, no forum etc. 4) Sometimes the name of a site should put you off. Sites such as richptc, are a scam as they offer what is mentioned in (1). The sites which use names like this are using psychology to get you on bored remember its your time and you do not want to waste it on something that wont pay. 5) The final point is sites that ask you to pay a investment in order to get your first payout. Surely if the site was genuine it would not need to do this and the chances are if you do that once the get the money off you they will delete your account. I hope these points help you lot.

Chillpill90; Thanks for the tips. Most beginner not aware about all those scam site. Obviously, they do not know and when they find out, there's nothing they could do except regrets and frustrated feeling. We can call all those scam sites as criminal. They stole plenty of our times and efforts for their own goods. Say no to scammer!
