So here's the deal:
I decide to take them up on their referrals offer - $0.25 per referral - just to see how it is to have a rented referral.
They have this to say about transferring money from your main balance to your purchasing balance (purchasing balance is used to rent referrals, etc.):
"You can convert earnings from your balance to your purchase balance. Your purchase balance can not be converted back."
But there's a CATCH. I got this message:
"Cannot transfer this amount
You should transfer at least your payout minimum ($10)."
I have to make $10 before I can rent a $0.25 referal!?!? That didn't make sense so did some digging.
Here are my findings:
1. My favorite PTC site, http://ptc-investigation.com/, identified "infinitybux" as a "BuxHost site."
In their own words:
For those of you that don't know, buxhost sites have a high scam rate. See our list at the bottom for more info. Click on the site name to see more info about the site. [taken from http://ptc-investigation.com/buxhost.aspx]
They identified it as a BuxHost here:

- buxfinance.com - BuxHost/ $5 PER CLICK - SCAM & Complaints
- 5dollarclicks.com - doesn't load
- earnandlearnworld.com
- infinitybux.com - BuxHost / Complaint
- tornadobux.in *
- paranormalclicks.info - Complaint via email
- clownclickers.info ***
That was enough for me. I'm out of infinitybux. I don't trust them at all. This guy has different complaints:
2. Beware of Infinitybux, removed from recommended programs
Sooo, that's that!
No more infinitybux, I don't recommend it. In fact I insist that anybody who reads this spread the word that infinitybux is either a scam or a crappy bux site (What kind of bux site requires you to earn $10 before you can rent referrals?!) compared to NeoBux and OnBux.
BEWARE OF INFINITYBUX, it's definitely sketch, don't waste your time!
