How to avoid being SCAMMED on the internet

In these tough times, everyone is looking for a way to earn a living from at home or to make extra money on the internet.  For every reputable website out there, there are about twenty or more scams sites.

To avoid falling into these scams and traps, here are a few types of websites to look out for:

The one-page traffic sites:  There are hundreds of these pages on the internet promising tons of traffic to your website or blog for $39.95 or there about, with 'a click of a button' and by extension (if your site or blog is monetized) you could stand to earn thousands of dollars per month from increased traffic.  DO NOT BE FOOLED BY THE VIDEOS AND FANCY GRAPHS AND CHARTS!  If they were making thousands of dollars from these so-called loop holes, it should be shared with the rest of us FREE OF CHARGE ... don't you think?

Pay-to-click sites:  First off, in our opinion, if any site that promises more than five cents (.05) per click it is a scam.  These sites can not be sustainable at more than five cents (.05) per click to members.  So if sites promised $1, $2 or $10 and upward per click, avoid them like the plague.  However, there are ptc sites that seem to be sustainable but are scams.  There are review sites out there that review ptc and other money-based sites that you could check before signing up, one such excellent review site is PTC Investigations.

Data Entry sites:  We are going to make this very simple!  DO NOT pay any of theses data entry sites to join as a member so that you could make money no matter how attractive they make it seem.  There are free data entry sites you could join.

Paid Surveys sites:  DO NOT pay any paid survey sites to join as a member.  There are dozens of free paid surveys sites that you could join, such as Survey Savvy.
