| myLot promises to pay as you talk on its discussion boards. You can
post and reply to whatever topic that you like.
to join:
http://www.mylot.com/?ref=blogger1
The following is taken from their website:
******************************
How does this work?
We have implemented a system to give everyone who uses the internet the
ablity to make money. The idea is pretty simple - if you contribute to
the myLot Community - whether it is by posting a new discussion,
responding to a current discussion, commenting on a current discussion,
or referring friends, you earn money. Our goal is to provide internet
users a place to earn money using the web on a day to day basis and
provide access to information they need.
We pay each and every member of myLot based on their level of activity.
As stated previously all you need to do is sign up for a myLot account
and we do the rest.
How do I set it up?
We can't stress to you enough how simple the set up process is, all
you need to do to start earning is sign up for a myLot account and
become a user.
How do I get Paid?
Get paid monthly with minimum account balance of $10 and carry forward
of unpaid amounts. All payments will be made via PayPal. All users will
be required to have a valid PayPal Premier account. Click here to learn
how to sign up for a PayPal Premier account.
What can I do to increase my earnings?
What an excellent question, and one we hope every myLot user will ask.
Use myLot, post discussions, respond to discussions.
Post quality content. For example, generate discussions that engage
other users and provide insightful responses and comments to other
users discussions to further the topic.
Refer friends. For each person you send to myLot you will receive 25%
of their earnings.
How do I refer friends?
All myLot users are automatically eligible to make money by referring
new users to myLot. Invite friends, family, new acquaintances, forum
buddies, or whomever you wish. You will receive 25% of their earnings.
I own a website. What tools are available for me to promote myLot?
Right now, the best available tool is our JavaScript feed. We will be
adding more tools in the near future. Click here to find out how to
integrate myLot content into your website (and get paid at the same
time!) with our JavaScript feed.
In general, by appending ?ref=username to the end of any myLot page,
your myLot referrals will be tracked to your user account.
Be creative. We're here to help you. The more money you make, the
faster we grow, so we're in this together!
What are the limitations?
As far as we can see, there really are no limitations. You must have a
myLot account to start.
You get paid for your activity so it is up to you as to how much time
and effort you put into this program. If you contribute you will earn
money!
Why does myLot reward its users financially?
We believe users are the most valuable asset to the longevity of any
website so why only provide them with a service, why not reward them
financially?
How do I calculate my earnings?
Its very simple, earnings equal discussion activity plus user
referrals. You will be able to see both your referral earnings and
discussion activity earnings each time you sign into myLot. The two
will be added together for your total earnings.

I trust nobody is being taken in by this scam. Even if you should
get paid once, think about where the money is coming from.

Not that i'm considering joining but just of pure
curiosity - where do you think the monay would
come from? I'm guessing ads on the site but you
made it sound like something far more evil...

I suspect it is far more evil. Notice how they refer to using
PayPal. My guess is that they use this data to empty selected
accounts, or to steal identities. PayPal accounts often involve
bank account numbers and/or credit cards.
Please don't strip attributions for material you quote.
Attributions are those initial lines that say "Joe wrote:".

Who knows. It's quite suspicious, however, that there seems to be a way
to disburse money - but no indication as to how they make money.
Other than to spam newsgroups with referrer id's. But the original
poster will lose that soon enough.

Maybe they make their money by suing people who say it is a scam.
Beware!

My speculation: maybe they are trying to build a community. Once they
reach the critical mass, they'll start making money by placing ads.
I looked at that website and those discussions are pathetic. Blogger1
wants to refer some new members and then he'll receive 25% of their
earnings.

Mayybe it's related to the young lady with the exposed cleavage on
late-night cable tv who promises $500 checks, $1000 checks, and (with
the new improved program) $5000 checks for joining their "program".
The only information given about the program is an 800 number to call
to sign up.

hits from a paid membership discussion list ('register
to see answer'). I wonder if they are just copying the
free lists, but I remember that they started as a free
community. I've never paid registration to find out.

There is one very prevalent tech site that 'insists' on registration -
simply scroll on down to see the answer(s).

ahh yes - that would be the one :)
aside: the mere concept of multiple sex changes goes places I really don't
want to think about.

If you do a search for a regular poster in the normal google search, then
you get some sites that use our posts but charge membership. I don't mind
those that want users to register, but I don't like those that charge
because they are using our posts, which were freely given, to make their
own site look busy.
But of those that only ask for registration, what is the point of registered
users if posts can enter the site from other places. So if I wanted to anoy
one of their users I could do it in any group that the site includes on
it's forum. Equally, are we always getting responses from those sites, do
we benefit from them as they benefit from us.
I did find one once where I searched for my username with as much of the
topic as I could remember because I was looking for a response someone
posted to it. I came across my post but it had a response from that forum's
administrator telling me off for breaking his forums rules for posting. His
response wasn't in the news groups, only in his forum.

Some time ago we got a lot of replies from one of those forums, which
made it into Usenet. I'm glad they stopped doing that - there is no
benefit :\
