They ask for payment before joining the site. The task Psy is always high but you see no payment proof. The minimum payout is always high.
Oh wow, that sounds like a perfect sum-up of how these scam websites operate, thank you so much for the quick and helpful response!

When there is no payment proof of a site then it is more likely to be a scam site. I remember a few days back someone asked me to participate on a quiz it will reward you $10, I clearly made out that it's a scam and it was.

Whether online or offline, if it sounds too good to be true, it's probably not true. One key warning you should never ignore is if they ask you for money before you can start earning.

Some sites can have high payout and still pay, while some would promise you money for tasks and deliver it.

People will demand money from you to join a site as they say that they will ask for the fees and innocent people give them the money in a hope they will earn from them.

Yeah any site that is too good to be true is really is. It is better to avoid it as one can.
I really believe this principle works like a charm. If anything is really too good to believe it is a scam more likely than not. Thanks for the response. You have made many people aware of what to be alert of.

But I wonder why people do that why would I even pay to make money from a site. I rather work at another site

If that website asks for money before joining, then that is a scam site. Lt us not dance and play with their music. They are experts in scamming innocent people.

That's what I think why people pay money to such sites. I have never done that, I was also asked by many sites to pay but my mind always said why should I pay for doing work for them.

Your last line should always be their questions. What I will be working for you why should I still pay money to work. it doesn't make sense.
