About Red Button Reviews

The site was called 25percent.com and as the name suggests it promised to offer returns of 25% for purchasing what were simply called "Units" which ranged in value from £25 - £100.

It seemed to good too be true, so they each trialled a couple of £25 units.  All the payments were processed through PayPal so it seemed to be above board, and within 4 working days each unit was returned with a profit of £6.25. 

The site had a phone number, so one of our bemused founders called up and spoke to a chap called Adrian (most likely not his real name) and he asked how he did it.

He was told that if people visit his site, his investors pay him for his traffic, and as people make 25% for investing, they tell loads of people about it, and that traffic then turned in to profit somehow.  Not understanding this completely but blinded by opportunity they scraped together £500 each and reinvested the following week.

The 4 working days passed, and they didn't hear anything, but 2 days later it was returned however this was without the 25% profit. 

The seemingly apologetic owner of the site said that due to constant problems and fees from PayPal, that they had fallen out with them, and that they were now offering the service via direct bank transfers, and that he could now offer £500 units offering a return of 50% within just 6 days.

They were then sent the bank details for Lloyds TSB business account under the name of 25 Percent, so off they went to invest a total of £1500 in the hope that by the end of the week they would have made £750 for simply doing nothing.

A few days later they each received an email from a lady simply known as Amanda from admin saying that Adrian had been in a car accident, and were left with no come back, and heard nothing for over a month.

Eventually the owner came back to each person, saying that his business insurance didn't cover him for his time off work, and that he had lost their investment, and offered to repay them back just over £24 per month until the debts were cleared to avoid them taking legal action against him, but nothing materialised and in they end they just gave up chasing it.

But something really good came out of this.

The 3 people that had been scammed decided to start researching online money making opportunities, and then one by one they would try out the most popular products that they kept hearing about to see whether of not they were scams or not, and then tell as many people to stay away from that SCAM as possible. 

This saw the creation of a simple Myspace Page called the Red Button Bin.  Initially a handful of sites made the Red Button Bin, but in the process of trying and testing ways of making money on the internet, all 3 started to have varying levels of success with the systems, and soon found that people were more interested in what does work, and not what doesn't!

So they got cracking on some reviews, and on Tuesday the 27th of February 2007 the first version of the Red Button Reviews website was uploaded to the internet and they started to tell the world about what actually works.

The guys have come along way now, and now have their own profitable independent businesses using systems featured on the home page, a true testament to the fact that they do all work.

Now Red Button and it's 100,000 plus followers use the website to find out the latest ways of earning money on the internet, as well as finding out were they can seek out online mentors that can personally show you how to make a living on the internet.

Not only that, but in August 2009 Red Button Reviews was totally redesigned, and now offers a wide range of services including affiliate programs, low cost advertising space and free advice on how to spot a scam for people that are in the business of making money on the internet.

So thanks for visiting our site and from the team at Red Button we would like to wish you every success in your online ventures.

Yours Sincerely
