Project Payday Exposed - Does it work?
Project Payday does have a 'scammy' feel to it if you look through the site and read all the great testimonials about how people are making anywhere from $500 - $3,500 a month and beyond. The concept itself is pretty simple and there is money to be made, but what makes this site feel like a scam is that people are trying to pluck the new members out of the forums right away and trying to get them to sign up for their offers. It is head hunting at its finest. If you are new then be prepared to get messaged pretty quickly about offers and making money right away.
Don't get me wrong, you can make money right away but in order to make money you have to show your credit card details to a lot of sites in order to start getting credits for your sponsor and making money. Often times the link that they give you has offers you have to complete and if you complete 3-5 offers then you get that ONE credit to get paid from your sponsor. Believe me, when anything says FREE on these sites, they aren't. You either pay shipping or handling and even monthly memberships. I'm sure you have seen these sites all over the web. In order to get your prize or cash (you should pick cash if your in this to make money) you have to complete trial offers. Then you have to refer a certain amount of people to also complete the offers. The Project Payday concept is based around "working the system" of these IFW websites. Project Payday basically explains two methods of doing this and provides links and other resouces you will need. Project Payday has just put it all together in one membership site so it can be learned quicker.
Here's my story about my first day and how I figured out the truth about Project Payday.
Like you, I was looking for something to help me gain a little extra income on the side. I was looking for that one program that my wife could do while she stayed at home with the little one.
I sign up in some sites and start looking through the requirements. I need to fill 1 credit worth of offers. So I find two 'free' sites to register to. I end up buying two types of ebooks with a 'shipping' charge. (needless to say they gave me the download links as well) So I pay 1.95 for shipping charges on two 'free' sites. I message the guy back he sends me $20 bucks. Now I just spent $4 and got $20, so I'm profit of $16 right now. I think 'hey alright, I just made $20 bucks'. So I go to another link and get into contact with another person. She's going to pay me $35 to fufill her requirements.
At this time I'm thinking this is too good to be true, but wait it gets better. Now I go to her sites and it turns out that most of her sponsor sites have the EXACT same trial offers as the person before me and you can only sign up once per site. So I look at different links that she gives me. All the 'free' trials had $4.95 fees slapped on them. I would have to complete FOUR of these $4.95 free trials in order to get $35. Now, $20 for $35, yea, that's ok. $15 gain and in my first thing I had only $16. So I think about it some. I go ahead and try a different guy just to see if I can still find those 'free' 1.95 ones and get paid more money. This guy has the SAME sites as the first two. Now red flags are starting to pop up. All the sites are almost identical with almost identical offers.
I end up wading through about 10 different posts on the forum of people wanting to pay me money to sign up under them. All 10 have the same general type of site with the same general type of offers. I've only been in this for less then a few hours and I've got paid ONE time and now all my 'free' trials are taken. Other sites wanted anywhere from $9 to $99 for trial offers and even then you'd have to complete 2-3 of those offers to get paid. I don't think that's worth it. I pretty much hit my limit of a $16 profit for giving out my credit card to a bunch of different sites.
Seven days later I have to go through all of the sites that I signed up for and cancel out all of my memberships. You really have to read through the fine print of the cancellations from each site in order to cancel everything out. If you don't cancel out all of the offers then be prepared to pay around $30-100 in monthly fees. One thing I also noticed was that all the sites were the exact same businesses with just a little bit different website setups. They are just trying to dupe you into signing up for more and more offers.
This site really is not worth all the hassle. Here is my Project Payday review.
Money can be made from this site...but at the risk of getting some serious charges on your credit card. I feel that I have to warn you that it can get ugly pretty quick. I made $20 on spending about $5. I had some software sent to me and once I cancelled I had to pay $5 more dollars to send it back OR I could have 'just paid them $20' to keep the software that I would never use. They try to get you every way possible.
I was only in the program less then ONE week and I have already received FIVE telemarketing phone calls from non-English speaking people who are trying to get me to buy more crap. In the 4 years that I've had my cell phone I might have had maybe TWO telemarketing phone calls.
I have come across one site that actually works though. I have been using it for awhile now and by following his exact step by step instructions, I have started to make a decent passive income. He gives videos, ebooks, has free website templates, and also goes step by step in every process of making money on the internet. The first three days alone I made over $100. Profit Lance
