1.0.
It is an irrefutable fact that
most bux sites are scams. As more and more of these sites turn into scams,
quite a large number of others are coming up. It is therefore paramount that
you act accordingly to guard yourself from falling prey to the scammers. Don’t
ignore all the tell-tale signs on scam sites; they are pretty obvious; Please
heed to the cautions elaborated on this page.
1.
Abandoned Sites
Is there a question on the
site’s forum that the admin has not bothered to answer? Are there broken links
that have not been fixed? It is very likely that the admin has given up on the
site, it has been abandoned.
2.
User Complaints
Are the users happy with the
website or it appears everyone is complaining about one thing or the other.
Unhappy users will complain and tell the whole world about a scam on the
web-find out from Google by typing the site’s name+scam.
3.
Selective Payments
Is the site paying some members
and leaving out the rest? This is an indicator that they are becoming broke and
cannot afford to pay everyone. The main source of revenue for bux sites is ads
and they may not afford to pay members when the ads are not making as much as
they should. Send a support ticket if you have a pending cash out that is yet
to be paid for-maybe there are some technical delays or, there is no money to
pay you.
4. Paypal&Alertpay Issues
The main reason people join buxsites is to make
money, and cash out. Problems associated with Paypal and/or Alertpay should
therefore be treated with a lot of seriousness as it is very likely that the
website may gradually be turning into a scam.

How To Avoid Joining Useless Sites
1.1
There are
several things you should do before joining a site. a. do a
WhoIs check on the
domain, e.g. with
http://whois.domaintools.com/ If the result is not a real name but a
http://whois.domaintools.com/ If the result is not a real name but a
DomainsByProxy, WhoIsPrivacy or any similar company to hide
the
WhoIs, then be careful. b. check the name/company of the
Admin/Owner Just
because the site is running "under a company"
does not make it legit!
Opening a Limited in the UK is easy, cheap
and done in several days. You should
try to google the company
name/Admin/Owner name and if you find any suspicious
reviews/posts/threads you should not join. If a
company's/owner's/admin's
physical address is a mailbox you
should be careful. c. check the sites
layout/design If a site has just
the default theme of the script installed it might
be that the Admin
does not have money to pay for a unique design. d. beware of
buxhost sites buxhost sites are in most cases run by scammers. Sad
but true. e.
you have to invest to cashout If the rules of a site are
like this you should
not join it. f. site has no forum/support ticket
system If a site does not have
a forum and/or support ticket system
then it is a really bad sign. g. users are
complaining in the site's
forum If users are complaining in the forum, e.g.
about delayed
payments, this could be a bad sign. h. Admin is
"hidden" in the site's forum If no informations about the Admin are
revealed, even if members are asking for it, then you should not join this
site. i. site is running slow or is often not available It might be that the
Admin is running his site on shared hosting. Shared hosting is cheap but to run
a stable site you should at least use a very good VPS. If this situation does
not change after a while it might be that the Admin does not have the money to
order a VPS or a dedicated server. j. wrong member/payout numbers If a site has
one day 3433 members and the next day 43443 members you should leave this site.
The same applies for payments. If one day there are no member/payout numbers at
all then this is a script error or this was done on purpose. Be careful with
those sites. k. maintenance time If a site is in maintenance for more then a
week you can be sure something is wrong. The Admin should at least inform you
about the status, if this is not the case you should leave the site.
