There are lots of "get rich" online schemes out there... most of them very fraudulent; BIG SCAMs. Beware! Don't be deceived by the good and organized layout of the website's design. Here are few tips on knowing if those websites that offer "get rich" programs or schemes are scam sites before you path with your money:

• Do a search, using any related search engine (preferably Google). Type in the website domain name, a space then the word "scam" or "fraud" (or both). Example... "money.com scam fraud". You will be exposed to firsthand knowledge of the site's activities from former or existing users... which might just save you some money. The decision is yours.
• Check to see if the site runs an active forum where issues bothering around the activities of the site are discussed. You'll often learn a lot from the forum and know if the site is delivering based on experiences of members already in it.
• Does the site run an active support system? If there is one, try sending a support ticket on some basic requests and see if you get a response within say three days. Most scam sites don't respond to support tickets submitted. (Don't fall for auto-responders).
• If after the above steps, you still want to make payment of any form using your credit card details, make sure the web address on which you're entering your payment details starts with "https://" and not "http://." Also make sure the site has an authentic security certificate.
• My favorite of them all is this: Have the website address handy, then go to "siteadvisor.com" (provided by MacAfee)... paste the website address (e.g money.com) there and push "GO." MacAfee will provide the needed analysis of the website so you can make informed decision. This can also be achieved using "whois.com"; where you can get the registered owners of the website with their respective addresses/phone numbers... scammers normally change their addresses... so make inquiries before you make payment.

Remember, "if it looks too good to be true... most times, it probably is." Hold on to your money and use the "free membership" option where available... till you are sure of the site. You need to Research on the steps above, be skeptical and have a very good sense of judgment... Scammers are convinsingly and deceitfully persuasive.
