There are sites that lure prospective buyers to something and requesting partial payment. Also. inviting to apply for a loan and credit card number must be registered first to their company which is an obvious scam.

Most common online earning sites in my country are for investing and you get a return of investment.It is the same hyips sites though tailored in way that it accommodates only the people from my country.

We have had quite a series of the same sites and they duped unsuspecting individuals who are greedy and think money is made from thin air.

I remember a few years back there was a site "speakasia" that used to ask for some money and used to ask to do some surveys and award money and reward their members. They did it for a few months and when got trusted by the people they stopped paying the members and fled away.

There are many such scam sites in the country that first win the trust of the people and then stop their operations.
