Getdumbmoney.com Fake Online Hiring Scams

The promotional video for this "Dumb Money" program mentions a "super simple 30 second process" for people to make money with nothing but a phone and a couple of taps. Yet nothing could be further from the truth. The courses for Dumb Money suggest: a) Playing games. That is not a super simple 30-second task. Games require significant patience and skill. b) Taking surveys. That is not a super simple 30-second task. Surveys barely pay more than $2 to $3 per hour. The promotional video also says you don't have to spend any money to make money. Nevertheless, the Dumb Money courses promote Rakuten, InboxDollars, SwagBucks cash-back offers all of which require spending money. Then there's the Dumb Money course about opening multiple bank accounts to claim sign-up bonuses. However, for that to work requires every new account have separate direct deposits of $500 or more from an employer or Social Security. Most people have one source of income. There's also the Dumb Money course about answering surveys on YouGov. However, testimonials on Reddit claim that earning money is painfully slow (averaging around $50 to $100 per year). Also the minimum payout threshold for YouGov is $20 which can take months to reach. I also bought the Dumb Money Instant Income Upgrade, yet there are so many bogus claims in those tutorials. a) In Video #1 Matt Scott says that you can get $10, $20, or $30 for EVERY survey on InboxDollars. That's not true. Most surveys only pay between 50 cents and $5. I've never seen $20 or $30 surveys on InboxDollars. So that is a lie. b) In video #3 Matt Scott says he got a $15 free gift card from SwagBucks by simply tapping a button in his email. That's not true. The email said he COULD get a $15 gift card after completing offers on SwagBucks. So that is a lie. c) In video #1 Matt Scott says by using Magic Receipts he can buy Jimmy Deans sausages for less than $8. That's not true. The cash-back offer was for buying TWO of the 8-count packages which cost over $16 each. So that is a lie. The promotional video for Dumb Money Instant Income described it as a "powerful upgrade", but what makes it so powerful? Rakuten was already covered in the basic Dumb Money training, so that doesn't seem like a powerful upgrade. And SwagBucks was also covered in the basic Dumb Money training, so that doesn't seem like a powerful ugrade either. The promotional video for Dumb Money Instant Income also suggested that the 50 beta testers for this program were all seeing results 100x faster after joining: * Jasmine Lee made $274 in the first 3 hours * Marcus Reed made $412 in the first 1 hour * Hannah Kim made $547 in the first 1 hour It even mentioned a brand new account that generated $228 in the first 58 minutes. I don't see how such numbers are possible from the information in the Instant Income tutorials, most of which were just rehashing the same information from the basic Dumb Money training. For example, Rakuten provides cash-back deals for shopping at major retailers. That's not going to generate $200+ in one hour. Cash-back deals entail spending more than you get back. Add to the fact, Rakuten doesn't pay out immediately. Payments are only made 4 times per year. And in the case of InboxDollars and SwagBucks, the only way to cash out earnings is through digital gift cards, which usually take at least 2-3 days to be processed. The Instant Income Upgrade was supposed to "speed up the process dramatically", so instead of waiting a week to see results it would only take an hour. In truth, nothing about the Instant Income Upgrade is "instant" at all. It's a scam. I also bought the Dumb Money Done For You Setup which supposedly provided a bunch of exclusive benefits: * Whitelisted & Pre-Approved – No waiting, no rejections—your account is fully active and ready to earn. * Placed on Faster VIP Servers – Your sites are hosted on high-speed servers for better performance and faster load times. * VIP Support Priority – As a VIP member, you get top-priority support for fast resolutions anytime you need help. * Faster Payouts – Unlike standard users who have to wait, your earnings get processed faster, so you see money in your account sooner. * Higher Earning Potential – Your setup includes exclusive high-converting offers and advanced optimizations that regular members don’t get. However, the "members area" for my Done For You setup is nothing more than a list of GPT sites. a) I don't understand how my account is "pre-approved" or "whitelisted". I have to manually register for each of the GPT sites. Some even have an identity verification process where I need to take a biometric face scan or upload a copy of my driver's license. b) I don't see where I'm given access to the "fastest VIP servers". When I click the links to join any of the GPT sites, I'm just taken to their main homepage hosted on the same public servers available to all visitors. I've not been granted special VIP access. c) I don't understand how my account is plugged into exclusive, high-converting offers. Most of the GPT sites include surveys and games almost identical to those found on InboxDollars, SwagBucks, or FreeCash. The surveys barely pay more than $1 per hour. d) I don't see how my earnings are processed faster. I contacted one of the GPT sites to confirm that my payouts are expedited. Their support team responded: "Payouts for all users are typically processed in a standard time frame regardless of their status." The welcome email promised I would be getting "a hands-free income system that works for you." Yet there is nothing "hands-free" about any of the GPT sites listed in the members area. Then two days later, I was told "Our team is carefully configuring every piece of your setup to make sure it performs at the highest level. From optimization to backend prep, we're handling all the heavy lifting so you don't have to." Why would "backend prep" and "optimization" be required just to compile a list of links into a static webpage. And most importantly what about this setup has been "carefully configured" from the ground up? I could get the exact same information in the matter of seconds from ChatGPT. In addition, the instructions claimed that my Done For You Setup includes "exclusive training to help you maximize your earnings." However, there is no training at all. The page consists of a 60-second welcome video telling me how I made a great decision followed by a bulleted list of the great benefits of my Done For You Setup. And below that are some links to popular GPT sites like PaidViewpoint and TimeBucks. So I emailed Dumb Money Support with a bulleted list of questions about the Done for You setup. All I got was a generic reply suggesting that I repurchase the Dumb Money System with an alternate email address to solve my login issues (even though I never said I had a problem logging in). That is the quality of "top-priority support" for being a "VIP Member" of Dumb Money. Even more concerning is how the promotional video for the "Done For You" upgrade described it as a package valued at $5000. Yet all I got was a static webpage with 12 links to GPT sites alongside a bunch of fake promises for "faster payouts" and "vip servers". It's a scam.
