I read a post of a friend,we both found a program at the same time, I did not join because it cost small money to join, that same day, I joined a different program that scam me of over $300 cash. Since then l have been scammed from time to time,money wise or time wise. I was wondering, have you been scammed online more than once? that can be service done and no payment received or money you paid and did not receive the service? In total I have lost more than I care to count, sure in the 1000s

@miniam My dad always used to tell me, if it sounds to good to be true it probably is.

I think that if a site makes you invest any amount up money to earn anything then they are a scam. We write at mylot and earn from it. We do not have to pay them an initial cost to be able to write here and earn. I have never spent money to be scammed out of it like you have I am so sorry to hear that. I have written on sites that in the end didn't pay so I didn't earn any money but I also didn't lose any.

I have never been scammed since I ventured in money making sites. I have known people being scammed even in real life so I am thinking if people can do that in actual they can also do it more online. So before I joined a site, I will ask first the opinion of others. Sometimes, I joined a site because a trusted friend referred it to me. If a site is asking me to pay first before I can join the online job, then I no longer pay attention on that opportunity.

i am quite fortunate that I have fallen victim to scam. I do not join a new site, until someone has been paid. Even then, I will wait for a long time before joining. I want to make sure that the site is not a fly-by-night kind of site. I am quite fortunate to enjoy a few months or years of great earnings before a site closed for good.

I hate to loose money but at the same time i do feel sometimes we give up too fast,in 1 month you still dont know how things work properly, how about giving a site more time? What is exactly data processing?

I lost money when I started joining online revenue sharing sites and other online investment sites. I experienced not being paid by some sites when I was just starting online. But I don't lost money because I don't have any yet. I jumped from one site to another until I found a good site where I earn some decent amount during my free time. I was contented on what I was earning until my day job make some changes on my daily routine. I was assigned in a distant place. That was when my little time being devoted to online working was reduced to almost none. I decided to join some revenue sharing sites and other online investments. At first, the sites are really paying well, but after some time, these sites, without notice, froze all the money, the earnings and the seed amount, for some reasons. I decided to go back to the site where I earn without investing any money. Although I earn a few amount, I am sure that I won't be losing anything because this site is legit. I have been working on this site for 4 years.

You have lost a lot of money online. I have not yet been scammed and I hope not to be. Did you report the scammers to the police? Or at least at the Better Business Bureau?

@miniam You do not have to feel stupid, this is the same mistake that people who want to invest in the stock market do. They want to make money, they invest in a bad stock and continue to add money hoping that the stock will increase... most of them only lose money.

Lol, I was so ashamed to do anything, I felt so stupid I did not even mention it to anyone offline.l knew l had been stupid, I did not want anyone confirming it for me that l had been stupid so l just accepted my losses. It was not a 1 time loss,it repeated several times.I wanted to make money online so l also did not want to just give up.

I never buy anything on line, and don't do anything for cash (apart from Mylot), so no I've not been scammed. Sorry that you've lost so much.
