Well, you may or may not have heard about the site http//use-less.net that revamped or something. (Supposedly the old owner was a scammer but someone took the site over for him ? )
Well the site only has one offer, a life insurance offer that supposedly pays them $275 for the lead. So that means they have really low referrals. But I was thinking about it and if the guy is successful (meaning if the people actually pay him for the lead and people don't abuse it with false information) this guy is making so much more than regular site owners even though the refs are low.
You can get $275 for 2 referrals. That means that 275li3=825 825-275=550. So he makes a profit of $550 off of you completing the site, where others barely make that b/c they are banking on other people signing up for offers just so they can send you your gift.
At first I was like, "that's not fair b/c he's making so much money" but then I realized that I probably won't do that site anyway so who cares.
I must say if the site proves to be legit, that would be good for some. But clearly not for the under 18 kids who can't purchase life insurance. I'd like to see what goes down with this site.

Yah, I did the site and was scammed in the beginning. Since then, I have not tried new sites that have signed up ) I got 7 successful greens and they rejected all but 1. What asses.

hmm, interesting, so is teh consensus that it is indeed legit? What does this one life insurence offer entail exactly, seems like quite a commitment compared to my good ol' eFax.

Well, the old site wasn't legit & this just started like yesterday and from my research no one has gotten credit yet. I beleive that's because they really have to look into it for fraud. We'll know in a month (when the guy should get his monthly check) it it's legit or not.
You just sign up for a life insurance policy and theres a month money back guarantee or something. I don't know about if you may want to cancel after 2 months or something though. It's like $9.95 too.
On another note the guy from supergear4free.com tried to do this and changed his mind after an hour lol

Yeah, I hope the company pays. I talked to the owner online and he seems like a real laid back guy. If the site doesn't work out it would be because of the insurance company not the guy running it.
I already have 5 referrals so I hope it's good. ;)
I don't know how I got them either.

I spoke with the main owner of Clickbooth and here is what he had to say about the offer on our website, "American Life Policy"
[quoted07885627c]uselessdotnet have you heard anything from american life policy?
JohnIntegraClick yeah
JohnIntegraClick I did
uselessdotnet what did they say?
JohnIntegraClick not a single one of your policies had a valid Social Security number
uselessdotnet thats what they said?
JohnIntegraClick complete waste of time for our advertiser and they are not happy[/quoted07885627c]
Looks like none of them will be credited, so if you are currently being billed, contact them to cancle your policy because if they choose not to credit any of your leads, why should you join their insurance policy and pay them money.
email= email=Service@americanlifepolicy.comService@americanlifepolicy.com email=Service@americanlifepolicy.comService@americanlifepolicy.com/email
Phone 800-482-6616
You still have about 24 days or so to cancle you're policy to get your money back.
I am terribly sorry that no one got their leads verified, and unfortunatly am not able to do anything about it since i did not recieve any commisions whatsoever from this offer. Here is a screenshot to prove that i did not simply take take the money and run[/quoted07885627c]
Looks like everyone's jumping on him but no one actually put in a valid SS#. so why should he get paid? and why should they get credit? I wish someone would actually insure themselves so I can see the outcome.
