So I joined this site a couple months ago and just found out what my first months points equated to in actual money. I had over 2,000 points and with the examples they gave on the forum I was expecting at least $5... it was less than $1.50. I guess for some it's worth the time to go on the site and click around several times a day for a few pennies... but personally I just see it as a HUGE waste of time. You have to reach $25 to get paid and everyone on there tells you to promote your string. But even the person that recruited me has at least 1 person a day added to their string and it took them more than 2 months to reach the $25 payout.
Here's the real kicker - they're opening up a new site or program called rewardstring. You'll play a game that is apparently similar to farmville/mafia wars and you can earn more points that way. If you already have a peoplestring account you will automatically have a rewardstring account. HOWEVER - they are trying to sell people a $250 package that guarantees them 500 signups below them. The problem is, when peoplestring was starting they did the SAME thing. They've stopped offering it because the people who purchased the $250 package with peoplestring STILL haven't gotten their "guaranteed string". A lot of the people who did purchase this package and haven't received all their people are (understandably) pretty pissed off because they feel as if they should get first dibs on people enrolling on rewardstring and NOT have to pay another $250 for something that's likely an empty promise. (I agree with them completely.)
SO - it's not necessarily a scam if you join for free, just a lot of clicking for not a whole lot of money. BUT if you pay $250 for a "guaranteed" string, be prepared to be let down.
