Is BeeZid A Scam?

Many are complaining about BeeZid. BeeZid is a penny auction site. These sites like BeeZid, DealDash, PisoBid, Ziinga, and Quibids are facing criticism about their business models.

We don not feel that BeeZid is a scam. However, the whole penny auction model is ripe for fraud and confusion. So, buyer beware.

We welcome you to comment about your thoughts on BeeZid. Do you feel it is a scam or is it a legitimate website/business.

Cheers from ThinkitsaScam.com
