  • I really don't know but perhaps I thinks its a scam as the website itself shows no page rank. Anyways, it was just what I thought.
  • If you do a search about it on here you'll fimd details of what happened to me...its a scam

    It has a page rank of 0/10 using the PR checker, so that would immediately ring alarm bells for me.

    You know the old saying "If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is". There are decent free tools online, but this sure ain't one of them unfortunately.

  • I looked at the website for 1 second and could see that it is a classic example of a scam, or at least something that does not deliver. The photographs of cash (sometimes it is a smiling person holding a big cheque) and the exaggerated claims about how much you could get alone tell me that.

    The website was only created in July; I have vague memories of something like this being mentioned on MSE recently: apparently you have to pay for some of these offers.

    Avoid!
