Someone Tries Those ‘I Make $20,000 A Month From Home’ Ads, And Here’s What Happens
Personalized emails requesting money, “shocking videos” sent by a Facebook friend or even business proposals, the internet is filled with all kinds of scams. It’s the price we have to pay for watching YouTube videos at work (come on we’ve all done it).
The only good part about all this internet junk? Discovering the creative ways people are responding to these schemes. There have been lots of videos popping up recently, titled ‘I made $XX per day’ where someone shows off all the money they’ve made, while persuading you to buy some amazing business plan. One guy decided to follow the scheme breadcrumbs all the way to the end and the conclusion is not what they expected. Scroll down for the full story and if you want more stories on internet scams, be sure to check out the hilarious back-and-forth comedian James Veitch had with various scammers.

Found some ad-watching site with referrals . All i had to do was watch a couple ads a day, 4,5, being paid as much as 0.5 dollars per ad, but mostly 0.1 or 0.2 dollars per ad. You could give invites with your link to other people, referrals and i would have gained 10% of their winnings. That's as much as 0.05 per ad, if they even had the time or the f*cks to give for this kind of thing. The catch was that the money were being transferred into my account only after 1000$ were summed up, so it was a long a*s grind. After a couple of months, I managed to have 1003$ summed up on the site, so I tried to withdraw to money, only for the site to crash and to never open again. No idea if it was a legit crash or a intentional one, but no money for me, and a lot of watched videos for them.
