anything under the sun

This is something isn't nice. Being scammed. After all the hardship you have done in a certain site you will just knew you were scammed when they failed to pay you the amount you earned. Though there are some ways to see if the site is scam. Just try to google the name of the site and add the word scam. There you will see lots of list of scam sites and there are also some blogs about the sites you are looking for. The people will then tell you if it is paying site or not. Another thing is that when the offer of the site was too high which seems so good to be true then you must be careful cause in online earning there is no such easy money. You need to work hard before getting paid.

For the list of scam sites try to visit squidoo.

Goodluck on your earning!
