What is "Kids Earn Cash"or"Kids Earn Money"? Is it a scam?
To claim that anyone (adult, teen, or kid) can: 'Start earning thousands a month by promoting on social media.' immediately brings questions of concern.
Is it just me, or does it seem to be an exaggerated claim?
Yes, one can make money from Social Media, but the fact they claim 'thousands a month' - from the get-go? They used the word, "Start" which implies you could earn those thousands relatively quickly.
Unfortunately a 'kid' or teen would be the most vulnerable to jumping into action with that offer!
Kids Earn Cash - a Scam? |
My first pick of investigation was to head to the BBB (Better Business Bureau), and already there are many complaints posted.
However, complaints are not posted under the name 'Kids Earn Cash'. What comes up from the BBB is: "Kids Earn Money LLC" with over 30 complaints - already!
The domain for that complaint is posted on the BBB as "kidsearnmoney".co, and it would take more research to determine the connection.
The complaints listed had a common denominator: When the members attempted to collect on their earnings, there were problems with being able to do so.
Going further into research you would find many sites reporting the names "KidsEarnCash" and "KidsEarnMoney" as the same business.
When I found the site "kidsearncash" .com my attempt to click through resulted in a 'redirect' so I backed out as my browser stalled at the redirect notification. Therefore, I chose to not visit the website.
Do your research before you jump in! And as always: If it seems to be too good to be true it probably is!
Protect your kids and teens by educating them so they too can learn how to identify scams!
