Online Threat Alerts (OTA) - Alerting you to scams and frauds.
I have received a few complaints about the car decal/sticker advertisement website www.stickr.co. Some persons are claiming the website is a scam but is it really?
There are some Facebook advertisements that claim members of stickr.co can make up to $500 per month, but some persons have complained about making less than the amount they pay for membership each month ($9.99) and the one-time membership fee of $19.99.
Here are some of the complaints:
"Hey everyone, I just got a full month's pay. $3.01...""...I just got paid 1.90, they didn’t reimburse me the monthly membership fee...""I did a full month membership as well and just got the payment. A whopping $2.10! ..."
Also, it seems a lot of people are not aware of the reoccurring monthly charge of $9.99, like this person who left this comment:
"...I paid the " one-time fee" (yeah right!) I got the Stickrr, put it on my back window, took a picture and sent it in, then about 3 weeks later I get an additional charge on my debit card for another $9.99. But you see, I paid the premium amount upfront which was $9.99 plus $29.00.They said if I paid this amount I would get all my stickers sent to me free of charge, so I thought it was worth it, but when I saw the additional $9.99 on my bank statement, I sent them an email to request that they return my money because they must have made a mistake.I explained in my email that I was a premium member and should not be charged any further fees. They wrote back and told me that the $9.99 was for the monthly membership fee. I never read anything about a monthly membership fee when I signed up. I sent a reply telling asking them why would I or anyone pay you $9.99 to advertise for you? They never responded..."

I paid a join fee, a double your earnings fee, a monthly membership fee ( promised me they'd waive it if I submitted a photo on the 1st of the month which I did) and a sticker fee with the promise I'd be paid to display an add in the back window of my car. Well, in less than 30 days they reneged on waiving the membership fee so I paid $9.99 to make $10.76. The next month it was $9.99 to make $3.12. I quit today to cut my losses under $100. TOTAL SCAM they make money on their affiliates by ripping them off. STAY AWAY!
I think company is a scam . They only pay you $10 for your campaign then charge you $9 for the service. They give $50-90 dollars worth of coupons but in order to use the coupons you have to spend money at a restaurant. They are not gift cards as advertised. For example they can me 8 $10 dollar off coupons to restaurants in the area where I had to spend $30 to get the $10 off. It's a complete scam.
Scam! SCAM!
Have not received and no money for sticker on car since last August, never received one payment, please help me and send me my money
Refund me please thank you
I have been using are rgp Cal for insurance I have not received anything in the mail my name is Janice p. and I have a red fan
I wish I had read reviews before I signed up. It is the biggest joke ever.
Who pays money to “earn” money? Of course it’s a scam! You ever had to pull your wallet out at an interview & fork over cash for a job? NOO!
So if this is a scam how are the still able to stay on line to lure more people do I have to call the bank and cancel my subscription have any one gotten paid and can they really prove it
Sorry, y'all had such a bad experience. I've done everything like instructed and I've been paid like they promised. Not sure what's going wrong with y'all but I am so far a happy client.
How do we know your not saying this just to get people to continue advertising this product .do you really make the money they say you suppose to make
Lol....ya'll is a liar.
D**n really I really thought this was a kool thing. I've had my Decal over a month not placed on my car. They said you have up to 30 days and a certain time to place it. They never harassed me about it so I got in touch with them and they said I'm still active. I can go ahead and place it. I D K I hear good I hear bad so hearing both tells me not to
What if the company is a famous vodka and they say it’s 500 a week to put a sticker on your car are they going to ask me for any money?
They may send you a fake check and tell you to cash it, take your part and send the rest to them. But, a week or two, the bank will find out the check is fake, and you will have pay back the money in full, or even get arrested.
This is a type of scam made to think you are earning money but they are simply circulating your money to keep their company afloat using your own money to pay for your "earning" Technically, they aren't doing anything wrong lol they are really taking advantage of the members. Probably someday they manage to outsmart alot of people and grow bigger as a company it's because they were able to continuously take advantage of many people that never realize it. Save yourself it ain't worth it!
My husband received $10 for the first month. The second month he sent his picture and was told they never received the picture so they didn’t have to pay him. On top of that they are pulling out their fee for $10 a month, so this is nothing but a scam.
Thank god, I just dodged a big bullet! Thanks for the honest reviews, I hate companies that are all talk, no bite!
It's a scam. They charge you 60 us dollars up front and take 10 dollars a month to pay you 3 bucks a month. They also dont give refunds. This company needs to be stopped.
I paid 9.99 and I haven't even got a sticker yet
They claimed that they never recieved any of the photos I submitted proving the installation of the decal. I was not reimbursed the fee at any time or paid anything. They are a scam.
They sent a gift card that was already redeemed.
Had my stickr for 3 month and did all my fotos send in..and still not got paid, I want to cancel.
Yeah they charge me 8 dollars a month and I haven't gotten paid yet. Last month they told me that I only made 2$...but I'm giving them 8$ a month. 🤔 just canceled that account.
Yes my comment is why you say this program pay close to 500 , but I only get pay for the first month I got$10.97 and my second month I get pay $14.25 , plus I pay two times 9.99. And just to be only one time $9.99.

Had a sticker on my truck for 3 months...still not getting paid!
Did you set up your PayPal and then send the money from the stickr.co account to the PayPal to redeem it?
How am I supposed to send pictures when I can't even get to the website
I have the same problem
I have had the sticker in my back window for almost 3 months. I have paid tje premium and have not been paid one cent.the app would not let me register and submit my pictures. They are still billing me 9.99 per mo.I cant contact them either! Im reporting them and ill let them go after my full refund!
I have been waiting to be paid the sticker has been on my car 68 day's and haven't sent a dime; emailed them but still no answer at all.
They don't pay you when they say you are supposed to. They say if you sent in the picture in on the 1st of the month you will get paid on the 5th of the mouth. Well, I did what they wanted and I didn't get paid at all.
Ok eh? Give me contact info please? 2 months now and they don't respond, period!
I'm so glad I did not give them banking info., Something told me to check if this was a scam. So I backed out and deleted the text.
