Over the weekend, I received an email from a man talking about PTC’s and how he was burned in various ways. In several cases (I will mention the names of these sites below) he bought the upgrade Earned substantial sums of money and was either never paid, or he gets paid $2.00 at a time from sites. Understand now, that these PTC’s that he joined cost a significant amount of money to upgrade. At least one of them was in the $300.00 range!

Other sites that he joined, he met the required minimums in order to be paid out as a free member, yet never got any money. So what I have done was to compile this little list to show what you should look out for:

1.       If the site claims to pay out substantial sums of money, ask around BEFORE you upgrade to see how others are getting paid, if at all.

2.       As a general rule of thumb, most advertisers that purchase this sort of traffic will be those that are offering something that EVERYONE is likely to use. If it is a product or service that a limited group of people will be using, then chances are no one will buy this type of advertising. Understand now that this type of advertising is effective, when used properly and with the proper products and services. Marlene and I operate several such sites, with Traffic n Clicks being our most prominent. The payouts/Buy-ins are nothing like the sites listed below however, but then that’s probably why they’re not able to pay their people…..

3.       Don’t take a sites word for it that they paid out anything. ASK PEOPLE. The site operator can tell you absolutely anything that he wants to!

Now, understand that these sites are listed here because this man said they never paid him, and I checked some things out, and I have every reason to believe that they in fact DID NOT pay him what he is owed. So, while most of the PTC’s are completely legitimate and pay their members as they are supposed to, those in the list below do not.

Remember – we do not actively link to crooked sites, so it’s up to you to put the links together properly if for some reason you want to look at a site:

Silvanamails dot com - upgraded
promails dot org -  upgraded
genuinemails dot com - upgraded
aglocomails dot com - met free member minimum
sureptr dot com - upgraded
richptr dot com - met free member minimum
cashmails dot org - met free member minimum
businessmails dot biz - met free member minimum
mailsmoney dot net - met free member minimum
247payouts dot com - met free member minimum

Please don’t let these “bad seeds” put a sour taste in your mouth about PTC’s because the majority of them are good. If you happen to be an owner of one of the sites above, and you want your site removed, then we will be happy to do so. Simply pay your people what you owe them, and show us legitimate proof and we will remove the site from the list.
