Onbux moved to scam list! we all should have listened to ptc-investigation

I have to admit I am one of the people who fell for the scam. Regardless of the fact that ptc investigation said most ptcs go scam within a year.. I thought, since Onbux had always paid me instantly, that nothing would change. That was until a month ago when I requested payment.. After not receiving it I filed a dispute with paypal. Next tim I logged into onbux I was banned. I got my money refunded, but what I wish I did was cashout on Onbux before re-investing it! I was only to get 5 dollars back! I know I invested well over 100 dollars, I just rarely cashed out and I regret it now. Is there anyone still using onbux?

There are many people still using Onbux and still being paid out. It is worrying that they are viewed as a scam site, but Standard members need to keep their heads and not panic. For some reasons it is mostly Indians that are having problems if the discussions posted here are anything to go by. Maybe they have more to lose. If you invested $100 of your own money, rather than Onbux earnings, then you have learned a hard lesson - all business is a gamble! Good luck in your next venture.

Very sound advice, P1kef1sh, and almost exactly what I was about to say myself. It is nice to see that you are still taking part here!

I am from Canada and know other friends who have had the same issue with them. It's good they are paying standard members. But the ones who were really dedicated to the site and invested/upgraded are not getting paid. The persective just changes when it happens to you.

I still a member of Onbux. I'm investing some money, not much. But I think that Onbux is till a legit site. I don't hear any information that Onbux is becoming a scam.

I am a standard member there, and I do have a handful of referrals, but I used my account balance to purchase them, so that way I am not out any of my own money. It is advisable that if you can buy referrals from your balance, then that is the way to go. Now, there are some sites that you can't do that with, and those are the ones I won't rent referrals when I have to use my own money. I have learned from experience not to upgrade either, unless I have enough referrals. I did that in neobux, and I regretted that decision, but now that I am back to a standard member, I can rent referrals and build them up, and I am not sure I will upgrade there again, at least not for awhile. It is just to hard to get direct referrals, as I had them, but lost them for one reason or another. I don't have all that many rented ones, but at least I am hoping to make something from those, and if not, I will just keep recycling them. Good luck to you and happy mylotting.

I did use my balance on onbux for renting referrals sometimes. But since I could have cashed it out, it potentially could have been my money. If I had cashed it out then re-invested it from paypal. I could have filed disputes to get all of it back. That' where my regret comes from. I am glad I didn't upgrade though.

I just started joining in onbux last month but I am just a standard member. At first i doubt joining to this site because I always read some negative feedback from the members. Thanks for the information.

Standard members who haven't invested seem to be getting paid if it's under 10 dollars. We don't know what will happen in the future though. I think it's really a sign they will become a full scam very soon.
