    I would be careful with these types of programs especially if you don't know if they pay or not. Some are just scams are leach some $$ of you. Best to read testimonials from users themselves (off the site: from forums and so on)

    oh I remember my first paid to surf venture. Everyday I earned a penny or three then the company went out of business, what a waste of time back then when I could have been buying domains or creating content, dammit.

    I recieved a couple decent checks from AllAdvantage but that ended fairly quick. I thought I seen them make a comeback not to long ago but haven't heard anything since...good memories though :)

    yes i know this is kinda risky way of earning money. most of them are scam.. just like agloco, they exist for a lon time but still not paying.. but this paid to surg got a payment proof in their homepage.

    i dunno.. hehehe.. i have just seen it in google adsense.

    Get paid to surf. I remember the studiotraffic and 12dailypro days. These sites do pay for a couple of months but they usually end up disappearing and scamming people out of their money.

    I don't see the point in these types of programs. Around 90% of GPT programs are scams and even if they were not, you will end up earning pennies for your time that you spend on them.

    I joined AGLOCO, its in my Sig.. im actually not sure when they are going to launch or what is going on with them...

    But ive only promoted in my forum signatures, which is a few differnt niche forums. Just from that i have almost 40 Signups. They are suppose to pay you from the money they make from advertisements. The more members you sign up underneath you, the more money you get.

    Who knows i hope it works out. im in the top 6.75% of all members with 39 signups. Thats far off from JOhnChow.com who has thousands.

    Best of luck if you decide to join!

    my god, if you can never get ahead of the person that signed up before you then its a scheme. "the more people BELOW you you make more money" or something someone fired off. if that is the case. its a scheme ;)

    PTS or Hyips aren't what they used to be ,
    since a few years back major programs like 12dp and a big PP like SP collapsed.
    In the end i'ts just one big ponzi,get in fast and hope to get payed,if admin doesn't run away with your funds,
    which in most cases happend...

    Agloco has pretty much shut up shop now I'm sorry to say - without ever paying a single member.

    As posted on Dec 10:
    It's always a good idea to check http://www.gptboycott.com/ first before joining a paid to surf or paid e-mail site to see whether a site is a scam or not. Also, if you are ever scammed by such a site, submitting a complaint there might help others avoid falling into the same trap.
