Febspot.com Review: Legitimate Site or a Scam?
Author: Adam Collins
With economic downtimes, people are always looking for new ways to make extra money. However, scammers know this and set up fake websites to steal from people. In this review, we will analyze febspot.com which was among the most searched sites on ScamAdviser, which compelled us to look into it.
Febspot.com claims to be an online video platform that allows content creators to monetize their videos. Are they legit or a scam?
How does Febspot work?
Just like YouTube, febspot.com is a platform that lets users monetize their video content. The site claims that it is a “Video-sharing platform introduced its plan to monetize videos and share the revenue with creators. Create your channels and become even more popular around the world.”
Upon registering, users can create their channel and upload videos, and the site claims they can make money.
How long have they been active?
According to Whois.com and ScamAdviser, the domain was registered in January 2019, making the site a few years old.
However, when I checked the same site on Archive.org, I was surprised to note the site has been inactive for a good while. This is never a good sign as one wonders why were they offline for so long.
Febspot.com Customer Review
When I checked on ScamAdviser, febspot.com has an overall rating of 4.4/5 stars from 7 reviews while on Trustpilot, the site has 2.6/5 stars from 5 reviews. The reviews on ScamAdviser are mixed, with one user claiming it's a fake while another claims it's time-wasting.
What I found interesting is that the positive reviews don’t have an explanation as to why the user gave a 5-star rating. There is no way of telling how the user arrived at such a rating or what their experience was.
On Trustpilot, the most common issue with some of the users is that they were unable to make withdrawals. This is a grave accusation as the main purpose of the website is to create videos and monetize them.
Bottom Line
Overall, though there is not a lot of information to determine whether or not Febspot.com is legit or a scam, there is a high likelihood that it's dubious. They claim to be a video platform where video creators can make money with their videos. However, the site has been on and off for a while and the positive reviews are not convincing. Some users are complaining about not being able to make withdrawals.
Caution should be exercised when dealing with Febspot.com. There are a lot more reputable options for monetizing videos like YouTube or TikTok.

As the influence of the internet rises, so does the prevalence of online scams. There are fraudsters making all kinds of claims to trap victims online - from fake investment opportunities to online stores - and the internet allows them to operate from any part of the world with anonymity. The ability to spot online scams is an important skill to have as the virtual world is increasingly becoming a part of every facet of our lives. The below tips will help you identify the signs which can indicate that a website could be a scam. Common Sense: Too Good To Be True When looking for goods online, a great deal can be very enticing. A Gucci bag or a new iPhone for half the price? Who wouldn’t want to grab such a deal? Scammers know this too and try to take advantage of the fact. If an online deal looks too good to be true, think twice and double-check things. The easiest way to do this is to simply check out the same product at competing websites (that you trust). If the difference in prices is huge, it might be better to double-check the rest of the website. Check Out the Social Media Links Social media is a core part of ecommerce businesses these days and consumers often expect online shops to have a social media presence. Scammers know this and often insert logos of social media sites on their websites. Scratching beneath the surface often reveals this fu
So the worst has come to pass - you realise you parted with your money too fast, and the site you used was a scam - what now? Well first of all, don’t despair!! If you think you have been scammed, the first port of call when having an issue is to simply ask for a refund. This is the first and easiest step to determine whether you are dealing with a genuine company or scammers. Sadly, getting your money back from a scammer is not as simple as just asking. If you are indeed dealing with scammers, the procedure (and chance) of getting your money back varies depending on the payment method you used. PayPal Debit card/Credit card Bank transfer Wire transfer Google Pay Bitcoin PayPal If you used PayPal, you have a strong chance of getting your money back if you were scammed. On their website, you can file a dispute within 180 calendar days of your purchase. Conditions to file a dispute: The simplest situation is that you ordered from an online store and it has not arrived. In this case this is what PayPal states: "If your order never shows up and the seller can't provide proof of shipment or delivery, you'll get a full refund. It's that simple." The scammer has sent you a completely different item. For example, you ordered a PlayStation 4, but instead received only a Playstation controller. The condition of the item was misrepresented on the product page. This could be the
