The scam starts already with a false promotion: "Make $25.00 For Every Email You Process And Get Paid INSTANTLY!"
The second lie on the website is found in the words "Proven System Since 2010". prosperitycubed.com is a copy of epsprosperityhotline.com. The domain epsprosperityhotline.com got created January 28, 2013. If the system is proven since 2010 then they have already lost their reputation more than once with their "Proven System". There is no other reason to change the domain name of a "proven system".
You have to advertise the system and you have to sell the system to the prospects from the advertising. You get the sign-up fee directly if you are able to convince a prospect.
As not every prospect can get convinced to the system the promotion "Make $25.00 For Every Email You Process And Get Paid INSTANTLY!" is already wrong. With other words you are doing the hard selling work without a calculable result.
As the promotion is already a lie the income promotion will be a lie too. So don't dream from big money try to think about the system without getting influenced from dreams.
If you sign-up to this system then you get nothing else than:
- Pre-Written Ads
- Step-by-Step instructions how you can promote the system
- Access to the EPS Support Team if you ever need help
- The option to purchase a website :)
With other words nothing which has a real value. For this is the complete system an illegal pyramid system. You are promoting an illegal system under your name, you are sending out emails under your name and you are getting the money. That makes you to the responsible person in front of the law court and this law court can bring you into jail. The real owner of the system keeps himself out of focus from the justice and makes his money with upselling!!!
Don't be stupid, you even can get fined for participating at an illegal system even you earned nothing from it.
Start thinking by using your own brain. Why shall you pay? You get nothing for your payment. The advertising from the system can get copied without any problem - you can find it on Facebook - and you can start your own system too if you like to take such a risk. In this case you would be really your own boss with all the risks.
prosperitycubed.com is a copy from epsprosperityhotline.com. It seems that they have made a new domain because the old one has got already a bad reputation and get blocked by some browser plugins.

It is recommended to use an advertisement blocker like Adguard or Adblock plus if you are searching for possibilities for monetizing your website. In such a case you can identify the scammer easily. In this case AdGuard has shown me that the domain usaearning.com is using the advertisements from bidvertiser.com. Why shall you pay some membership fees (for the upgrade) if you can get the service directly from bidvertiser.com for free?
usaearning.com is not able to give you more security than you get from bidvertiser.com directly. At least does bidvertiser.com not hide their domain ownership and you have an address where you can bring them if the situation arises in front of law court cheaper and easily. They even hide their domain ownership. Such services are not trustful. The only like to get your hard earned money without doing something for you. For this is the site usaearning.com nothing else then scam.
bidvertiser.com from Israel is well known for terminating the accounts fast without giving a reason for it. You need only to follow the comments on Web Of Trust. Maybe this is the reason that usaearning.com is hiding their identity by using the proxy service WHOISGUARD Inc. from Panama, but it can be some other reason too. In any case if they are taking money for membership fees then they will be liable in front of the law court in any case. But there is no reason to pay such a suspicious service in this case.
The view of the membership area of usaearning.com by using AdGuard:
By looking into the source code of the site we find:
<!-- Begin BidVertiser code -->
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript1.1" SRC="http://bdv.bidvertiser.com/BidVertiser.dbm?pid=588292&bid=1684284" type="text/javascript"></SCRIPT>

If you are thinking logical then you'll get it that risingtraffic.com is the same time-wasting and/or money-wasting system like trafficmonsoon.com.
Each advertiser or advertising agency likes to get clicks because the user is interested into the product. Such user will get easier to be a customer then someone, which clicks only for the reason for getting paid or to get some clicks on his own advertisement. Such one will even not read the content of the site. He will automatize the clicks or wait until he will be able to take the next opportunity for getting more. For this is the scam already included into the system from RisingTraffic and TrafficMonsoon.
The scam gets very good explained in the FAQ from RisingTraffic:
You do not need to pay for anything before using our traffic exchange services however as a free member you will only receive 1 visitor credit for 2 sites visited. After purchasing our services you will receive credit at every visit.
You have to buy AdPacks which will give you a revenue sharing position up to $39.2. You must click at least 10 ads in 24 hours to be liable for the revenue sharing position. The more the referrals the more you will earn.
There are really 4 ways to earn with RisingTraffic
- paid to click
- using ad services to generate leads to make money in your primary business
- revenue sharing
- direct sales commissions
(10 % commision is only for referral purchases.)
As each one which has something to hide hides RisingTraffic the ownership of their domain. If we take a look at Alexa then we can see where their traffic is coming from:
If you take a look at the above table then you'll see in which countries your advertising will get seen if you make advertising with RisingTraffic. There are not really the rich countries in the list, which can bring you an income from your advertising. The only income you get is if you buy AdPacks and click on the advertising of others. For this reason is the system nothing else than a pyramid system, where you can even earn 10% from your referrals. The open question is: How long it will take until the system will break down? As the owners of the site are expecting the break down they have hidden their identity.

Affiliate marketers are you really so stupid and think that you can sell money?
Do you not know that everybody knows that you cannot take out more from a pot than it is inside?
As long as you are not offering a product, which should get sold from the affiliates and the affiliates are getting their commission, is your system only an illegal pyramid system or Ponzi scheme!!! Participating and promoting in such a system can bring you only into jail.
A pyramid system is an unsustainable business model that involves promising participants payment or services, primarily for enrolling other people into the scheme, rather than supplying any real investment or sale of products or services to the public.
Various forms of pyramid systems are illegal in many countries including the United States and numerous European countries.
As Europe enforced the law that promises in the promotion are enforceable in front of law court, the illegal sales systems disappeared very fast. Only some legal systems like Tupperware, Jeunesse, Amway and a few others are remaining. Some of this companies even needed to change their sales and promotion structure to be conform with the local law. The story about Amway at WikiPedia shows how the law has changed the world of affiliate marketing. You should think about it before you promote such a system - especially if you are not able to pay fines of a few million dollars!
Why you are trying to sell money? Do you really hope that you can find some people, which are more stupid then you are by yourself?
In such pyramid or Ponzi schemes only the people on top are earning. The people at the bottom of the pyramid are only losing their money. It does not matter if you need "only" to pay a small sign-up and/or membership fee. In any case you can use this money in a better way or are you already so poor that you like to get a place to sleep and food for free of charge by going to jail?

After thinking a long time about the purpose of the sites fifty-news.com, multitrendo.com, tempoquiz.com. trastnews.com, vacantsurvey.com, wheresurvey.com, whosurvey.com and the other sites hosted there, I got their purpose. They are only available for phishing the passwords of your payment provider. Especially if you expect a payment and you get a faked email from your payment provider for an account verification you'll will not wait a long time and make this account verification.
Take a look at the "Paypal" email - she is in German language (my account has been made in Austria) - the translation of the important parts gets described afterwards:
Why this email is a phishing email:
- Paypal will never use the email address access@access.com
- The message "... der Zeit Ihrer letzen Anmeldung,Ihr PayPal-Konto ist vorübergehend blockiert" - English: "... since you logged off the last time your PayPal-account is temporary blocked" is known from PayPal. With this you are getting invited to follow the link provided at "Klicken Sie bitte Jetzt Zugriff wiederherstellen" (English: "Click Restore the Access Now"). This link and the button leads to http://kolbe.bz/logins/ - not really to PayPal.
- The same link http://kolbe.bz/logins/ get found at the end of the message where is nothing else written than "Please don't answer to this email we are not reading this email. If you have questions then login to your account and click on contact".
kolbe.bz is an hacked Word Press site - you can see the Word Press logo if you are using http://kolbe.bz/login instead http://kolbe.bz/logins/. If you are using http://kolbe.bz/logins/ then you see a copy of the PayPal page:
kolbe.bz redirects the traffic to serveusers.com. The domain serveusers.com belongs to the hosting provider Network OperationsZZZ ChangeIP located in Miami, USA.
The website gets found at the IP:
