Scam PTC Sites!

I have been clicking for two years and I have tried many PTC sites. Some have paid me and I witnessed that some became scams.

The following are the websites which has a random list of scam Paid-T0-Click sites:


1. Paid-To-Click BUSINESS

The website said that they have the following criteria for a site to be considered a scam:

  • Low script, Default script, Free script, Scammy design (You are not credible)
  • No forum (How can we know if they are paying any member?)
  • Complaints on forums (A legible PTC site must have good feedback)
  • Admins there are former scammers or the new owners (Antecedents)
  • Not payment for all members (Must paying everybody)

2. PTC sites, Scams, Updates and Reviews

According to the author:
This is a list of known scams that I have managed to compile and is definitely not exhaustive. There are other sites, especially new ones, that may not have revealed their 'true colors' yet. So, be careful with them. And even paying sites can suddenly become non-paying sites.

As a general warning:
  1. PTC/PTR sites that pay high amounts per click or high payouts would not be sustainable and most likely be scams. Which advertiser would be willing to pay $1 or more per click or email?
  2. Be careful with sites on free hosting. If the owner can't afford a site, how can he pay you.
  3. Scripts that are free or are easily hacked.


3. GPT BULLETIN

The admin posted an entry entitled SCAM PTR/PTC Sites List - "Beware!"

The list of PTC/PTR sites below are known scams compiled from a reliable source and are definitely not exhaustive. It is arranged in alphabetical order starting from 0-9 then a-z. This list is not intended to put down anyone's business but only to warn everyone before they spend their valuable time and efforts into it. If you think that I wrongfully listed down a site on this list, please feel free to leave a message/comments.


I think that it is important to realize that, just as with so many things on the internet, there are many sites that are scams. We just have to work together to find out those that are valid and those that are scams.

Detect and Avoid Online Scams

"Hey buddy, come over here. Listen, keep this quiet. I've got a friend overseas who's trying to come here. He's filthy rich but he has to go through a lot of red tape on his side and ours. I was hoping you could help me out by spotting me a few thousand dollars so that we could grease the wheels a little. Don't worry -- once he's over here he'll repay your investment 100 times over. What do you say?"

If a random stranger approached you on the street and said something like that, you'd probably ignore him and keep walking. You might even report him to the local police. Who would trust someone they had never met with that much money? But an online scam very similar to the scenario above has fooled thousands of people into giving away millions of dollars to the scam artists. It seems that people who might be able to smell a rat in a real life encounter become more gullible while online.

That particular scam goes by names like the Nigerian scam or the 419 scam. There are hundreds of variations on the scam but they all have the goal of fooling you into giving away as much money as possible -- up to and including your bank account information. And there are thousands of other scams online. Some share similarities to the Nigerian scam and others are completely different. A few will even install harmful software called malware onto your computer and become a persistent problem.

The best way to deal with online scams is to avoid them entirely. After all, you don't want to have to repair damage later. We're going to give you some tips on how to recognize a scam so that you won't be a victim. The first thing you need to remember is that old saying, "if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is."


This is just an introduction for the article "How to Detect Online Scams" by Jonathan Strickland which can be found on HowStuffWorks website. Read on and be enlightened about online scams.

Anyway, here are some investments which are not scams. They are trusted and paying PTC sites:
