i have voted yes,

reasons:

you still wasted time clicking

you still wasted possibly advertising dollars promoting it and getting refs

you got other people to join and now they face the same dilemna

and of course you were lied to saying you would get paid. ;)

my reason for this are simple, to me it is only a scam if you lose money, if you don't lose no money then you were not scammed/conned

yes i would say thats understandable

i guess it could be to each persons experience though, for instance you didnt invest anything, therefore you werent scammed,,,.but the next guy did invest,..so he is definitely scammed,..depends on the webmaster that ran it too i guess you could say,. and how they handle the fall of the site,..either respectable way,..or total scammer way and disappear and tell everyone to f$#%ck off.....

Ill go with scam this time. Mainly because the admin made you view the ads everyday when you clicked them. So basically he/she was making something from you and his/her part of the deal was to pay you for every ad that you clicked. They didnt hold up to their side of the deal and wasted your time and effort.
im gone again.......

I voted no, but this kind of question brings up a lot of questions and answers. It can be considered yes but that really depends on the time you've spent on the ptc, promoting it, and in the end if it reflects on you after the site has become a scam.

But I strongly vote no since if you hadn't invested anything into the site AT ALL then technically speaking, you weren't scammed since you lost no money. Unless you spent money advertising your referral link, but perhaps that brings up another discussion.

I voted yes because you have ultimately invested your time.  Even though you didn't spend anything at all for that site (thus not being monetarily defrauded), you were cheated out of your time ... and time is a scarce resource like money.
