What Is AobMoney? A Video-Viewing Money-Making Scam Network!?

AobMoney is a website that claims to pay you when you view ad videos. You can do the tasks on your laptop, desktop, phone, and tablet. 

They also say you could make up to $300 per day just by watching ads. 

To the uninformed, this might look like an awesome way to make money. These are the people that programs like AobMoney prey after. 

In reality, there’s nothing on this program that’s legitimate, and we’ll explain in the next section.

Before we expose their shenanigans, we’ll go over the premise of GPT sites are supposed to work. GPT stands for Get Paid To. This is a legitimate business model used by market research companies to generate information from the public for their clients. 

All information surrendered to a legitimate GPT or paid survey panel are purely voluntary and you’re protected by their legal disclaimers, particularly the privacy policies. You’re made aware of who you’re giving your personal information to. 

For some GPT sites, you may be redirected to their clients’ websites or apps and have you do the activities on there. Now one of the common tasks in a legitimate GPT site is watching videos, but you’re not earning a lot of money. At most you’re earning a few cents for a 30-second video. 

In the case of AobMoney, they’re promising you could earn as much as $300 to $500 per day just by watching videos. Assuming these are 30-second videos, that means you’re looking at $16.67 per video. Quite far from the industry average of about $0.10. 

To make sure that you really did watch the video, you’re going to be asked to fill up a captcha form at the end of the video and then get credited the amount promised. 

This is where the scam comes into play.

How Does AobMoney Scam You?

AobMoney promises that you’re getting paid a lot of money for viewing their ads. You’ll see these ads displayed on the dashboard like so: 

You’ll view of the ads, and you’ll be enticed when you see your earnings go up in your account the more you view ads. 

So, by the time you cash out, you’ll be notified by AobMoney that as a “newly registered employee”, you need to reach a minimum of $150 to get paid, as seen below: 

This is their way of making sure that you’re serious about working with them. 

Anyways, at this point, you’re inclined to continue and reach the $150 mark. You’ll probably get $150 after a couple of hours. 

Then you request for another payout, but this is where it starts to get more fishy. 

AobMoney will request a second cashout requirement, saying that you need to refer at least 40 people to the program to get paid, see the requirement below: 

But this time, AobMoney will promise you that you’ll get paid within 5 minutes after you get 40 referrals. 

You’ll also earn 25% of the lifetime earnings made by your referrals, so that’s actually an incentive too. 

Assuming you made 40 or so referrals, AobMoney will throw in another barrier, saying that you’ll get your money between 30 to 60 days for your payment to be approved. 

You can get a quick verification by depositing Bitcoin in their account, as seen here. 

So this is now weird because you’re now required to pay up before you get paid.

The Short Version

Long story short, AobMoney will never pay you your earnings because they don’t have the cash for it. Imagine paying $400 to 1,000 viewers at any given time. 

You’re given several hurdles before you’re getting paid, and then you’ll be asked to pay up in order to “quickly verify” your payment request. 

But even if you do pay up, you’ll never get your money.

AobMoney is not for anyone. I wouldn’t even recommend it to my enemies. 

#1 Fake Support Section

AobMoney has a fake “Customer Support” section that posts some questions from their “users”. You’ll see these supposedly legitimate questions posted with some answers, but in reality, they’re just there to make themselves look like they care about their members. 

But this is my favorite comment: 

This one actually links a payment proof that shows the amount and date requested. You see this is weird because it’s a testimonial in a Customer Support section. So what gives? 

This comment actually exposed the scam. 

#2 No Contact Information

Apart from the fake Support section, AobMoney does not have any other contact info posted on their website. 

You can’t get in touch with them via email, phone, social media page, or anything. 

The only digital presence this company has is its main website. 

#3 No Owner Information

AobMoney provides us with no owner information, and we believe that the site was only created sometime in 2019. The payment proof posted above dates back 2017, so how is that possible? 

It simply means they faked this payment proof and made it look like it was a legitimate payment deposited into a bank account. 

#4 Network of Scams

AobMoney is part of a network of identical platforms that scams people for watching videos. You can see the similar sites below but with different logos. Just like the influencer scams that we exposed recently, AobMoney and its sister sites appear to belong to a different network but are just asking for money upfront. 

Are the influencer scams and AobMoney’s network of scams related? We don’t really know.

AobMoney is a scam. There’s nothing to like here. 

AobMoney is one big video-watching scam that asks for money upfront before you can get paid. You’re asked to watch videos in exchange for the possibility of earning hundreds of dollars but this is not happening. 

Every time you try to cash out, you’re presented with different requirements. The last one will ask you for an upfront payment so your requests get verified instantly. 

AobMoney is also part of a network of scams that do the same thing, but they’re just up to no good. 

Stay away from this program.
