People Dollars & Scam Warning

If you want to "make some quick cash," you should check out the People Dollars section on PeopleString. 100 People Dollars are equal to $1 (e.g., if you complete an offer worth 102 People Dollars, you will receive $1.02 in your account). It really can add up fast! There are plenty of free offers, such as surveys, newsletter sign-ups, and games. There are also offers that reward you for enrolling in programs or services that you may already be considering, such as credit monitoring and satellite TV. If you're looking to purchase something, click on the shopping tab and earn People Dollars by spending a certain amount of money on a retailer's site (make sure to compare the offers to the rebates in the Cash-Back Shopping section). So definitely stop by the People Dollars section to see what's there! **I set up a junk e-mail address and a free voicemail account just for use when completing the offers. ;o)

The offers for People Dollars are NOT managed by PeopleString. The offers are operated through a 3rd party affiliation that generates the offers from all over the Internet. PeopleString simply aggregates them to one location in order for you to find them more easily.

If you do not receive People Dollars after completing an offer, allow some time for the offer to be processed. If you still do not receive your People Dollars, contact Offer Pal for assistance. There is a link in the section ("Missing People Dollars?") that you can utilize to report a problem. If you do not see your offer listed there, send an e-mail to support@offerpal.com.

Most offers pay within seconds of completion; however, different offers have different posting times and they are typically listed along with the offer. So far, I have only encountered missing People Dollars with a couple of quiz and game offers. When I complete one of those offers, I take a screen shot of the "results" page just in case I need to prove that I did it. With most offers, you will receive some sort of e-mail confirmation.

SCAM WARNING: There are a few links posted to get people to BUY People Dollars. You will see them listed amongst the offers and on the top of the People Dollars section. They charge more than the People Dollars are worth. I believe they are there to catch people that don't understand what People Dollars are. There is NO reason for someone to BUY People Dollars, especially at the rate they are charging! You EARN People Dollars in order to convert them into money! If someone wants to call anything a scam, this should be it...and this has nothing to do with PeopleString.

  1. There is also a tab called "Tasks" in the PeopleDollar section. It's for doing "work" on Amazon. I thought I could do work on Amazon and transfer it dollar for dollar to PeopleString but thats not the case. It works just like buying People Dollars. That being said you still might want to check it out any way as its another "easy" way to make a little bit of money. It goes right into your Amazon account and then you can buy things on Amazon with it.

  2. Oh, and to add to the positive side about People Dollars, once you get the hang of it, you should make sure to teach your downline about them if they don't already know. You'll get a percentage of whatever they make from the People Dollar deals. If you think it adds up fast for your self, wait until you have members in all 6 levels doing the same thing! :)
