I think everyone knows about this site last year this site was very popular on News channel. First they say the user to invest the money 2500 or more send some surveys and paid the money for this survey. Lots of people invest the money in it and lost the money because site was scam and fake. One boy invest his sister's amount 7 lakhs rs. on the basis of his friend suggested him and suddenly few days after news shows on TV channel or paper the site is scam and not stop the giving payment all account are sealed. His sister and jijaji and family members was blaming him and he cant bear this because he was innocent not know the site will fake. Hanged himself and died. Do you loss amount in this site. Is this is a big experience for everyone dont invest too much amount on any site.

This is so tragic. I am also tight with my money online because i am afraid of scams. But there are still some ligit sites who asks for money such as to upgrade your account to earn even more money. The bottom line is, before investing, you should search for various sources online for persons who have proof that they have received payments and that the site is legit. But still, its a good idea not to invest too much just incase something goes wrong you are able to recover from in financially.

This is good habit and I also fear from scams. All sites legit till some month or years then declared scam if investment sites. But if sites are free then no problem.

Ya me to invest Rs. 10000/- and when the time of receive my first payment of Rs. 3500/- from site the site owner was arrested in scam or fraud case and after that and still till date no update of this site is found in any where and the money which people invest in this site is gona, and all those who work with site before this site become scam had lost lakhs of ruppes from his pocket as well as other who trust him, like i know my friends father who is just retire from his teaching jobs had invest Rs. 50000/- in this site and only recovered just 10% from the amount invested by them and the balance money is gona like in the flow of river. I also feel if govt had put some step towards the site they may be help people to recovered their money from site, but last all we know govt is also the part of this things and never help the people at all.

Ohhh God you also lost the money but good not more money lost. Here in my town 50 persons invest money and some are invest after selling their gold or property and lost all money. We were lucky because most of persons trying convince us but my danger and sweet hubby has more knowledge about internet earning they not ready so I was also not ready. 50000 is also high amount. But this is the lesson for us dont try to earn easy money.

Hi dear, That is really unfortunate. But how can a person invest 7 lakh rupees in online without getting proof of surety. I think the boy should have been wise with his investment then his life would be saved. I also read the news the head of this site got arrested. Somebody asked us too to join the site, but being in mylot I am aware about the danger in online investment. So I told that I will check it and tell later.

Dearhis friends suggest him because some thousand earned by friend and his friend invest only few thousands rs. but the boy invest more so he think he can earn more. Yes few persons are arrested from this site. I not like to invest the money online.

Like many people that have been involved with trying to make some money on the internet, I have been a person that has been a victim to a few scams in the past. This was something that was depressing to me when it did happen, however, it wasn't something that was so depressing that I would have considered taking my life because I had lost money. In actuality, I do think that there is a chance that the fact that this youth had lost money is not the only reason that he was depressed enough that he ended up ending his own life.

Scam sites are all around us today some people fall for it and some don't! I feel sorry for the young inexperience person I know it sounds so good but I always say if it sounds to good to be truth then is probably a scam! don't go there make a search and never pay any money with your credit card! I got burnt once and I learnt my lesson.

I have and will not invest anything into any site except my time or points/money earned from that site. That is my policy for me. I have seen many loose large amounts of money on and off line, falling for such scams because of how they are drawing people in. Nothing is worth it when there is no history of site. I tell anyone before investing into ANY SITE, RESEARCH, RESEARCH AND AGAIN RESEARCH on and off line of the site, site owners, site server, site hosting. All of it needs to be checked. Then I would still be skeptical if it is a new site. If a site isn't at least 3-5 yrs old, I will not invest even money earned from site. I have heard of others going into bad depressions and attempting same end because of scams. The less we all fall for these the less there will be .. hoping anyway..
