I know not all online opportunities are scams but I think some people are skeptical because there are a lot of scams. Of course, usually the scams promise a ton of money fast, like hundreds of dollars a day, sometimes even thousands. I think most people look at the quick money options, but there are many ways to make extra cash that aren't scams but they just take time and effort that some aren't willing to do.

Mylot is a good opportunity for you to earn. During my stay here, I already got $30 pay-out. Though its not easy to have your pay-out here but still this is a legit site to earn. There are really online scams. Just be careful in joining them. Welcome to Mylot ;)

Because everyone has been scammed at least once. From that day onwards, everyone has a suspicious eye on every program. Some people call everything a scam, never mind them. (It means they are afraid of being scammed.)

I most surely agree that there are a lot of earning opportunities online. After all, I make my money from articles I write and publish online. I even earned some valuable discount coupons for new books by completing online surveys on a website focusing on my country. So, there definitely are legit opportunities to make money out there. I think most people discredit the idea because they or somebody they know had a bad experience. There is no wonder most people waste their effort on scams since those usually promise much higher incomes and humans are greedy beings ...

yes there are alot of good earning opportunities online, but we could never take away negativity when it comes to money, we all need money to live, and some people would do anything to earn money, anything...i remember i encountered a scammer online before, i am almost in his pocket, i almost shipped my item to a some country but but but, good lord after few conversations he said something that made me doubt, so first thing i did is to make proof, twist my story, then gotcha! the scammer gave up and even ask an apology...so what i am saying is, we should always be careful, we have to make researches first before doing some negotiations that involves money. :-)
