bigmoneyptc.com - Is it a Scam? | Not Recommended
****SCAM site, use caution ****
Big Money PTC is
a PTC site that we are putting on our Not Recommended List. Their PTC program
claims to be different from the rest. They try to make it appear that
you will earn big money and this is for the serious investors. We
believe it is all smoke and mirrors and this site is a big risk to
investors who are thinking about investing in refs or membership
packages.
1. Ties with a previous scammer - Yes, that's right. Looks like this site is one of "Michael Pratt's" creation. The owner of
DingoBux,
a known scam site. Any site with the name of Michael Pratt or
GPTNetworks is doomed and bound to be a scam sooner or later. According
to the Whois info: contact information for bigmoneyptc.com
sales@gopratt.com (responsible for bigmoneyptc.com) See screen shots at the end of this entry for more info.
2. No Forum!
- Again, sites that don't have a forum, is a big fat clue that the
owner doesn't care about feedback or discussion about his site.
3. Whois info private
- Most of the time when a owner tries to hide their whois info it is a
sign that they want their identity hidden, just in case they decide to
close the site down and scam their members.
4. Too good to be true - If it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is.
At
Big Money PTC, you can purchase advertising as little as $3 for 1000
hits. Please correct me if I am wrong... The adverser pays only $3 for
1000 hits, however the viewer gets paid 10 cents per view. Anyone knows
how much that is that they are paying everyone to view these 1000 hits?
Lets math that out...
1000
x$ .10
--------------
=$100.00
So the advertiser pays only $3. So where are they getting the other $97 from?!!
How are they paying you for this??

UPDATE 05/21/09:
We received a email from Big Money PTC:
Hello XXXXX XXXXXXX ,
Today we have received an investment capital that will allow us to
make this a $1 per click website.
Future ads will no longer be worth $0.10 each they will be worth $1 each!
Have a great weekend!

Now instead of 10 cents they are paying $1 per click??! Even worse!! This site can not withstand those kind of rates! Sounds like the owner is desperate for funds.
July 31, 2009 : Received
a email in regards to BigMoneyPTC from the site owner. It was a update
email sent to all members. I also received the same exact email from
RichPTC. In both emails it talks about how members are continuously
asking for their payments. BOTH SITES! How odd. I put both emails side
by side. I will let you be the judge on whether or not these two sites
are scams and owned by the same owner.
Site will be placed on the Not Recommended List for the reason previously
described. We would not recommend this site to anyone. We consider this
site a huge investment risk.
If anyone would like to share their experience that they had with this site, whether it is good or bad, feel free to do so in our comment section at the end of this review.
