Readbud Scam

I have seen many people try out a site called Readbud to earn money at home. I just want to let you all know that it is a scam and to stay away. I had actually forgotten about this site until I saw a friend post it on Twitter recently.

This site will have you read over articles and give them a rating. It is very time consuming. They say you get payout at $50. I only know one person who ever made it to payout and they did not get paid.

The rest of us that tried it made it to about $40 and then they quit giving us work. We could not log into the site at all and when we did get in there was no work available.

Do not waste your time on Readbud at all. It is a scam and there are legit ways to make money at home. Just a warning :-)

  1. Thanks for the warning! I had them listed on my blog for maybe a week several months back, and then I noticed when I started logging in to Readbud that I got all kinds of spammy pop-ups. Then I started reading where people were having experiences with them similar to what you mentioned, so I removed them pronto!

  3. I tried it for a short period of time, but found it to time consuming. Now I am really glad that I didn't make the effort. Thanks for the heads up!
