Long long ago, one of my friends introduced me to a website, where you will be paid 0.01$ just to watch advertisement for 30 seconds. Everyday they will push 10 to 20 advertisements to your account. So, that pays you like 0.1$ to 0.2$ per day.
I did this for some days and then really got bored of just staring into the monitor and do something for every 30 seconds.
I wrote an Excel Macro, which would automatically,
Logon to my account
Click on every new Ad link every 35 seconds (5 seconds to refresh)
Close it promptly and opens the next active Ad link.
It worked charmingly.
Then after few days, I thought why just one account? 10 different accounts could easily get me 1$ - 2$ a day.
So, i upgraded my macro. I created a small table with all user name and passwords and fed to my code. Cleared the cache memory after each account activity ended.
Wow!! I was easily making money :D
I made close to some 72$ through this and got paid via paypal or alertpay (don’t remember)
And then one day, they put Captcha text at the logon screen. :(
I wasn’t able to automate it. So, i inserted a notification prompt every time an account activity got over, so that I would manually intervene and feed the captcha
But it really annoyed me, to get back each time. I lost interest and left it as such after few days :(
This was the laziest thing i automated and made money by the way
