Bux.to SUX!! - And yes it is a SCAM ...That's right, I said it!

Saturday, February 14, 2009

I feel obligated to shed some light on the scheme of bux.to (a PTC site). For those who have already come in contact with Bux.to probably already know to stay clear of this PTC scheming web site.. This notice is not for the informed but for uninformed.

Like you, I was a traffic exchange user. It is the cheapest way to promote certain web sites. Some are successful and many are not that successful. Bux.to was a success and a easy site to promote on traffic exchange. Many were sucked into bux.to promises. I am one of them.

When you first sign up on bux.to you are told you can make easy money without spending any money. As they have described on their main page:

Earnings Example
» You click 10 ads per day = $0.10
» 20 referrals click 10 ads per day = $2.00
» Your daily earnings = $2.10
» Your weekly earnings = $14.70
» Your monthly earnings = $63.00


Sounds great? This is how you get drawn into buying refs. Bux.to offers ref packages that you can buy. Then after you have bought those refs you receive credit for every ad that they click. Sounds too good to be true? Here is the kicker, after a certain amount of time those refs will die or stop clicking, and all at the same time. Usually within 300 clicks. However, Bux.to will tell you it is just a coincidence and that they wouldn't dare sell fake refs.

Now I bring you to the "requesting a payout" process. The most important part and the reason why you are visiting their site.

According to their Terms Of Service, premium members (for a fee of $59) can request a payout and be paid within 30 business days. And standard members are to be paid within 60 business days. Fair enough. You can have payout request be paid to you through Alert Pay or on a Payoneer Card. Note Payoneer Card is only available for Premium Membership. Another scheme to get your money.

So you wait for your payout, and wait, and wait....For some, a payout is received. GREAT!! But this was when bux.to was just starting out, and when they actually paid their members. Now days, the wait time is 1 year and counting for premium membership. That's right, 1 year and still waiting....For some, die hard Bux.to fans this is ok. They consider bux.to like a bank account. Good for them. For the majority, this is unacceptable. Especially for those who have put in thousands and thousands of dollars into this site. They and like so many others are victims of this online scheme. Bux.to has a forum to discuss Bux.to and other related discussions. However, bux.to mods and admin like to demonize their members. If you dare speak or utter the word SCAM. You are banned. If you argue with a Mod you are banned. Mods tend to think everyone is out to get them, when in fact it has nothing to do with them. Yes, the world does not revolve around you. There I said it! Since buxto policy is not to give any information or keep members updated we are forced to express ourselves to the closest thing we have to a bux.to representative.

As of now, the only thing members can do is take it and shut up. We are laughed at if we give our assessment of the problem and treated like a "science fiction writer" as one mod would put it. We were told to take our theories some place else. If that's what you want to call them. So here I am. Spreading my word and the word of many other Bux.to victims. Do not be fooled by these PTC sites. Bux.to or any other. Stick to your gut feeling..."
If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is."

Thank you, and I hope my experience will help those who are thinking of joining a PTC site.
