Readbud - SCAM alert
Ok so here is my original link: http://www.redgage.com/links/jellyjosie/this-site-pays-u-to-read-and-rate-articles-nice.html where I first talked about readbud a month ago.
When I first joined it seemed amazing. You could EASILY get around $2 a day for a few minutes worth of "work". "work" meant "reading" and rating some good/bad articles. I thought I could easily reach the $50 payout in no time.
Some days I bothered to check the site out some days I didn't. It was pretty easy, you could be checking your email in one tab and let another tab be open to read the readbud article. So at the end of about a month, I had $30.
Then I started noticing something amiss. The articles got much much FEWER each day and also got the lower paying articles. So in one week I think I probably got a few cents.
Whatever. It looks like a scam because at this rate it will take FOREVER to get to the $50 payout...assuming the site is even live by then.
There are some "payment proofs" floating around the net but they look fake. I can't be sure but nobody has really come out to say they've been paid.
They have these "top scorers" on the first page who don't really change and since they've got such high scores you'ld think they'll at least let others know they've been paid. Na - da.
I think readbud is a waste of time.
I don't know what they'll really get out of this but I'm assuming it is the page rank and the google adsense earnings. I've accidentally clicked on the ads when trying to scroll down the article simply because the articles are FULL of the google ads.
You're better off spending your time Redgage. Redgage has some wonderful original content and the PAY you. I received my Redgage Visa card just like Redgage had promised. Furthermore, some of the articles on readbud are really bad. Suffice to say I've spent about 5 - 10 mins each day on readbud, it's been a waste of my time. Don't waste yours!
