Name: All News Round
Type of Business: Reading news?
Price: Free
Overall Rating: SCAM!
So I have come across another too good to be true scam at the site Allnewsround.com. I had to do a review on this to share some valuable information, because this program (or should I say scam) is ran very similarly to one I just came across last week.
What is All News Round?
This is a “news” site which claims to pay members for reading different news articles on their site as well as getting people to join.
The thing is that it is completely free to join and doesn’t require a credit card, so it gets people thinking they really have nothing to lose, so I thought I’d give you the facts through this review.
Simple, Click, Do Some Math, and Make Money System
At least that’s what it claims to be. The process is really simple and with the amount it is offering to its members, it’s a complete no brainer.
All you have to do is pick an article, click confirm, do a little math, and voila! You’re $7 richer. It literally takes under 10 seconds to do the whole process.
Earn $38 Referral Commissions
Now tell me this won’t get anyone’s attention. But once again, for paying nothing, you can make $38 for each person that you refer to All News Round.
Oh trust me, it shows on your account that you make that amount when someone signs up and it also shows when you read your little news articles.
Just like Up-survey (the other program I was talking about), I thought I found myself a diamond in the rough. With something so simple and free, I knew I could easily get 100 people to signup under me. I did fail to look at one very important thing.
Can You Really Get Paid?
This is where I kind of screwed up, thinking I had the latest and greatest make money system. With everyone and their mothers asking me for payment proof, I had to look to the person that introduced me to the program and guess what? They didn’t have any!
So this is the same problem that All News Round has. Lot of big dollar signs, but the problem my friend comes when it’s time to go to the bank.
But There’s a Limit
I don’t care how high the limit is, you can make $800 really easily if you wanted to. How hard would it be to promote to a totally free program that pays you more than your regular job does every hour?
Here’s the Catch
People do want you to read their news and same thing goes for taking surveys. The problem is that they literally pay you pennies for doing these tasks.
This is how this scam takes advantage of the very vulnerable like you and me. They create the high earnings, with a high cash out limit, so that you can click on these links that gets traffic to these other sites.
Once you have done enough of these for them, they don’t care if you complain or not, because they got you to do what they wanted you to do and they didn’t take any money from you. You following me?
I Guess The Good Old Saying Stays True
“If it sounds too good to be true, then it most likely is”. Here’s the thing and I myself learned this the hard way, but at least I learned.
If you really want to make money online, you will need to put in the work and get the proper training, if you want to make the online world your career.
I work from home full-time and although I may drift to trying the latest and greatest scams, I know that making money online takes a little learning and determination to get to where I finally am.
If you want to make real honest money online, you need to use programs like the Wealthy Affiliate, which is the same exact place that I learned how to make money online.

Overall Rating: SCAM!
I know you want the easy way out and you though this was going to be it, but I’m sorry to say, but you are wasting your time thinking you are going to get paid reading the news.
Final Thoughts
I myself thought this might be something that can work, but once you get to trying to get paid, good luck with that. You will spend more time waiting around to get paid (which won’t happen) when you could be doing something more productive, like learning how to make money online.
I too was hoping this program could actually work so I can add it to my good to go list, but sorry to say, but All News Round is just another scam.
Thanks for reading this review, and I hope I’ve given you more than enough reason to stay away from yet another too good to be true scam. Feel free to leave your two cents below and let me know what you think. And if you’ve made money with this and you do have proof, please share that too.

I’m glad I read this. I was hoping that it wasn’t a scam. But I’m afraid to admit that I fell hard for this one! Thanks for reminder.
John
Yeah it’s really not your fault, I thought the same thing! lol. Just know that if it sounds too good to be true, then it usually is. If you want to make money online, you need to put in the work and most likely some type of investment. However, please don’t think that you need to invest thousands of dollars to make money online, because I have fallen for those too. I have used a program that costs me $47/month and they have taught me how to build a solid online business, which I do full-time now. They actually offer a free trial, so you might want to give them a try. Click here to see what program has worked for me!
J
Thanks so much for the warning about this one. I had a strong feeling something wasn’t right, so trusty google is all I had to use to find your site here and walla! There’s the proof that this is all BS. The site that I nearly fell for was http://news-range.com which currently has a craigslist ad up.
Also, if you are still looking to hire someone to write for you, I have tons of experience in the whole work from home game, have been through the legits and the scams. Could offer a lot of stories and helpful information…honestly, could probably write a book on it lol. If you’d like to contact me, my email is givin in the “leave reply” field I had to fill out to write this comment. Thanks again for the tip on this latest scam!
John
Hey J, thanks for the comment. I am not looking for a writer at the moment, but I do have a couple of acquaintances that are looking for some. Do you want me to send them your email addy?
Billy Kean
Hi there,
Definitely a Scam. I am still waiting not only for money but also to replies to contact us which I sent! Like others, I felt what have I got to lose by doing it, except time, I just feel v annoyed that these scammers take advantage of vulnerable people.
Would love to have the tech savvy to take down their website and the others like it!
Oh well, back to the drawing board to try and find a website where you can work from home is legit but they are not asking you to fork out $60, $70, $94 etc to join so that you can find the way to be able to look after your family.
Regards,
Billy
John
Yeah there is no such thing as free these days and even those that cost thousands of dollars don’t work. I have stuck with the one program that has made me money and continues to do so and it is one of the few that I know work. Click here to see what program actually works!

Does anyone know where allnews is located I will put a stop to it.
Lori Samples
These are more than likely overseas. I have written a post on my findings and listed all of the scam sites related to ‘get paid to read the news’ here http://www.tipsfromlori.com/get-paid-to-read-the-news-scam/
I’ve also contact several people promoting these scam sites. They didn’t perform any research prior to promoting and they are ‘waiting’ for their payout.

Hello Everyone,
Apparently nobody knows for sure if allnewsround.com is a scam or not, just because the pay out is higher than usual doesn’t mean it is… out of curiosity I started “working” on it and I already have a processing payment of 2300.00 on June 26th I calculated that 14 working business days I should receive payment on the 17th of july ( I excluded Saturday and Sunday cause they say 14 working days)….
I will write back to let you guys know for sure if it’s scam or not and if it works I’ll send pictures for proof as well… ok bye.. 🙂
Becky Stewart
did you ever get paid?
Lisa
So glad I came across this sooner than later. I have only been reading articles for a day, glad I didn’t wait the 14 days before researching. I am also a parent, of 5! I would love the opportunity to work from home and write for you. I would like to check out the link you posted above also, but don’t have much to spare as far as start up money. How long is the free trial period? Thank you!
John
It’s more like a free membership Lisa and not necessarily a trial. However, you do have limited access within the site, but you will definitely get a feel of what they have to offer. It is a completely legit program and I know you’ll like what you see. Get signed up for free and you’ll se how everything is done.
Debbie
Those (insert expletive) all around news will not pay I wasted my time with them (insert expletive) it’s been 25 days from the 14 days they claim to pay they kept putting up new Webs so you can read more news for them for free they are all scams!! AND DON’T PAY $$$ (insert expletive) ALL OF THEM!!!!!

Hi, John.. I too, am one of the unfortunate “work from home” hopefuls who eagerly wasted 20 precious minutes clicking “read”, while I adding first grade arithmetic in my head as the $$$ signs climbed steadily into the $100’s… Thinking I hit the “work from home” jackpot, I had to quiet the little voice on my shoulder telling me otherwise, so in an atempt to prove him (or her) wrong, I googled “allnewsround”… Who was I fooling, lol? Did I really expect to see testimonials of “It really works!” Or “Big bucks paid out with All News Round!” Or even ” All I had to do was reach the $1400 payout requirement before I got real cash in my PayPal account! “…. Yes, John, after countless scams and an embarrassing amount of hours committed to finding that one “work from home job” that I didnt have to pay for, and not to mention the arthritis I most likely cursed my middle age self with 20 years from now, I still fell hard for this “read” the news and get paid scam…
I honestly don’t want to think about how many hours Ive wasted trying to find my dream job, when I could of spent the time doing the learning what it takes to find the 1 out of a 1000 legitimate online jobs…. So disappointing… Anyways, John, I would like to raise my hand and shout “Me! Me! Me!” in hopes of getting your attention for the offer of a writing job (parenting subject?) you mentioned in above email responses to other gullible hopefuls like myself… I also noticed the link you have mentioned quite frequently, (and I will check it out before I rule it out because Im unemployed and cant put money I don’t have up front for a legitimate business opportunity, just in case Im jumping to conclusions and my prayers will be answered in that one click) but besides that, do you have any other “work from home ” sites or know anyone who is hiring for online jobs? I would greatly appreciate any assistance in this oh so frustrating topic… My email is autumncherry08@gmail.com if you can use a writer
Kristen
I’m so annoyed! I was hoping this was legit! :(((( At any rate, I do write also John. So if you are indeed still looking for a writer. Please let me know! Thank you.
Sincerely, EXTREMELY annoyed!!!
John
Thanks for the comment “extremely annoyed”. I think everyone else was hoping this was legit, but just like every other too good to be true scam, this one has let us down once again! There are literally only a handful of legit ways to make money online and clicking is not the way. However, you can learn to earn, but that is not going to happen overnight. If you want, I suggest you really give this program a try, it has worked for me and it has also allowed me to kick my 9-5 to the curb. Check it out!

Please email me at alyb2103@gmail.com

Did anyone actually wait the 14 business days that was required for payment?
kay
I’ve been reading the news and came to my first payout. I have yet to receive any kind of compensation. Too bad I didn’t see this earlier. smh..
Amber
Well that sucks that it’s another scam! I’m getting so sick of scams! I think I’ve seen them all! Anyone know of any real truly legit work from home jobs, let me know! John if your still needing a writer, I can write about my experience with all these work from home scams and/or parenting. Just let me know. Thanks for the heads up by the way! 🙂
John
Amber if you can write, it’s about time you make some real money with your skill. If you are tired of scams, you need to try programs like the Wealthy Affiliate. You will be amazed at what you can really make with what you already have. By far the best make money from home program!
Kat
Amber & Everyone,
I too fell for this scam. Thought it might help me raise the funds needed for a nonprofit to help homeless families.
Bill
“Want online job?” That’s their opening line? Really? It sounds like it’s from a Charlie Chan movie. Who would ever apply for that? And give them access of any kind to any account I have? Yeah, right.

Sondra
Hi I was wondering if you know of any other work at home jobs that are free? Thanks and have a good day.
Keri Gibbs
Hey John,
I have 5 children and I have experience writing. That is right up my alley. Please contact me at kerigibbs35@gmail.com.
Thank you

How can it be a scam when it is free? You did not pay anything to sign up. They just don’t pay, Its just a waste of time, but you are not scammed out of anything.
John
Yeah not so much a scam, but they do make money from people reading this nonsense, so with them earning money (a lot of it at that) this is definitely a scam. Yeah they’re not taking any money from you, but they’re misleading you so that they can make money. In the end, it’s a complete scheme that you need to avoid.
Susan
Thanks for the heads up on this. I too was hoping it would be a good one. So its back to trying to find REAL work on the net. So very hard to do.
John
Yup, another too good to be true scam. Have you tried Wealthy Affiliate? It gives you a completely free trial, so you might want to give that a try. Best make money from home program out there. They have taught me everything I know about making money online, and I know you can do the same.
veronica
hey John is there anyway i can work for you online?
John
I am actually looking for a writer Veronica. How are you in that department?
veronica
Im not sure I really Dont write much, what kind of writing is it for?
John
I am actually looking for someone who can write articles based on the work from home business.
Clarke Davis
Hello! Are you still looking for a writer? I have experience in short stories and articles.
DJ Green
I’m great in that department! Anything for me?
John
Can you write stuff about parenting?
Risha
Hi John,
If DJ Green doesn’t get back to you, I have a talent for writing, and with a ten year old and a 2 month old I’d say I have plenty to write about. Let me know if you need a great writer! merishacrowl at yahoo
Ashley mierzwa
I’m really upset that site was a scam, I’ve been looking for at home work since the day i found out i was pregnant and that was almost two years ago. Darn.
John
I know what you mean Ashley. Not the pregnant part of course. There aren’t many legit programs online, but what I have learned is the fact that there is no get rich quick type of system out there. Period! However, I do use a program called Wealthy Affiliate, which will show you how money is actually made online, rather than clicking on some news. It is definitely not free, but it does come with a completely free trial that you can use to test the system out and see if it can work for you. One of the few, but it does work!
Amanda Dempsey
Hi John. If you are still looking for a writer to cover parenting, I would appreciate the opportunity to speak with you further. In addition to parenting, I can cover several different topics of interest. Please feel free to contact me through my LinkedIn Profile: http://www.LinkedIn.com/in/AmandaDempsey02 Thank You!
mike
I just saw this on indeed and thought it was too good to be true so I decided to do a little research and came across this. Thank you so much.
John
Not a problem Mike. If it seems too good to be true, then it most likely is. Stick with that little saying and you’ll be fine. There aren’t many legit programs out there, so be careful with what you join.
