Re: Pay-Pup and Netbux Scams

well we are all still waiting to see if it is a scam or not.. the die hards still do their searches but everyone else has prettymuch stopped.. and I know alot of people have filed claims with paypal to get their money that they paid for referrals.. myself included.

I bought 100 refs.. 24 days ago that were never added to my account.
I'll be getting that money back in 7 more days.

Here is what I think has happened: A few people may have been paid (to give the appearance of legitimacy) and to allow the word to spread, but now that victims are starting to bite en mass, the money has stopped flowing out (except perhaps to those who are working as shills to lure victims). The scammers are changing the rules on a regular basis to keep as many people on the hook for as long as possible without paying anything out.

IMO - Those that are just clicking, you will not get any money. Those that have paid for referrals - you gave money to scammers, and you will not see any money back.

If anyone cares to contact chad, try giving (386) 867-0711 a call. It's the number he has listed for another one of his domains, xull.org. Seemed to be another site that guaranteed a 150% return on an investment within 10 days. I guess he came up with a way to grow gold

(xull and chadf are the same person)

Re: Pay-Pup and Netbux Scams

Netbux has changed rules today.
It says now, that ppl will be payed depending on how much money the advertisers pay. It makes more sense...

Yet, I am subcribed.. I have nothing to lose, i didnt buy anything from there, and have referrals (friends that joined). I do a lot of searches on net, I dont mind doing it through Netbux, until i reach 75$ (u only get paid when reaching $75 now), and see if im going to see any money.

I have seen screenshot of ppl that have received money from PayPal, and have friends that said it worked for them (but I have not seen it).

If i dont get paid, ill just stop using it, I am happy i didnt waste money or time.

(Taj Mahal Scripts dont works anymore... maybe Netbux.org has found it... ?)

Re: Pay-Pup and Netbux Scams

Your previous post here was deleted because it had the referral URL. Don't you get the freaking point?

Don't use that ref link, use this:

»www.ibux.net/?r=NOREFERRAL_STUPID_SPAMMERS
[That's an invalid referral link. Might work, but nobody gets credited]

I just did a hey mod on your message. (I think I did it on his last message, too)

It's bullshit. How would Netbux pay $489.96 (or something) to someone for doing searches? It looks faked. It'd take off a long time to get paid that much.

(To see that total bullshit, and not see the CJB thing: »img268.echo.cx/img268/2654/proof···t6sx.jpg)

I just came across netbux, and I can't tell whether or not it's a scam. So far, I've heard mixed reviews, but it doesn't seem like i'de have anything to loose if I signed up for it. I havn't heard enough success stories to be convinced yet though. If anyone has any success stories, I'de suggest posting them. Just a thought.

Nice try Netbux shills! MLM schemes are and always will be scams except for the very few at the top. Get over it and get jobs those who keep shilling this posts with their lies. SCAM = SCAM = SCAM

The big problem with these kinds of referral/affiliate schemes is it encourages spam. Thus we all wind up with even MORE advertisements in our e-mail, boards, or anywhere else they can think of to add another "referral", while the ones at the core of the scheme can claim "plausible deniability" from their out-of-control affiliates, point to their ToS against spam (which is just a thinly-veiled reason to withhold payment.)

If there were a DMCA equivalent to CAN SPAM, their activities would be "vicarious infringement" - they make money off the spamming of others. There probably SHOULD be a law again "contributory" and "vicarious" spamming (although given the effectiveness of the current one, it wouldn't mean much).

Those screen shots don't proove much of any thing, many scams and schemes such as this started out paying initially before collapsing. The pure economics of it just simply don't add up, advertising pays no where near the $.04 they are promising to give out.
