The Freecash app has taken TikTok by storm, luring in millions of users with promises of easy cash for scrolling through their feeds. The app's ads, sponsored by popular social media platforms like TikTok, claim that users can earn up to $35 an hour just for watching videos on the "For You" page.
However, this appears to be a misleading marketing tactic. Freecash doesn't actually pay its users for scrolling through TikTok. Instead, it uses its app to promote mobile games and rewards users with cash payouts if they complete challenges in these games. The app's business model relies on getting new users to install and play the games, and then providing them with monetary rewards.
But how much of this is real, and what's behind the ads? A spokesperson for TikTok claims that Freecash's ads violated the platform's rules by misrepresenting financial opportunities. Meanwhile, the company behind Freecash says it didn't directly produce the ads but rather had third-party affiliate partners generate them.
But despite these denials, many users are still being targeted with ads promising easy cash for scrolling through TikTok. And once you download the app, you're directed to play mobile games like Monopoly Go and Disney Solitaire in exchange for rewards. The challenges themselves offer payouts ranging from $0.01 to $123.
This is raising concerns about user data and exploitation. Consumer advocates are warning that Freecash's claims of not being involved with misleading marketing on TikTok may be a tactic to avoid accountability. And some experts believe that apps like Freecash are preying on vulnerable users by using manipulative tactics to encourage spending.
One thing is clear: while Freecash does pay out money to its users, the app's business model relies heavily on getting new users to install and play mobile games, which can be problematic for both users and advertisers. As with any new app or service, it's essential to do your research and understand what you're signing up for before committing to a paid membership or spending money.

They're basically preying on people's desperation for easy cash. I mean, who needs $35 an hour just for scrolling through TikTok? 
It's not like it's a real thing. And those mobile games they push are just the cherry on top of a toxic business model. We all know how these things work - get people hooked with promises of quick cash, then dump them into a sea of ads and monetization schemes.
Are they just using third-party affiliate partners to distance themselves from accountability? We need more transparency here. And what about all those users who are getting lured in with false promises? It's a whole new level of exploitation.
I mean, who wants to spend their time scrolling through vids just to earn cash? Sounds too good to be true, right? And now that it's been exposed, I wonder how many people actually lost money trying out those games 
i know ppl r makin money but its all cuz they got u hooked on these mobile games & u wanna c the $$$ 
The real question is, what kind of user data are they selling to those affiliate partners? 
The idea of earning $35 an hour just by scrolling through TikTok sounds too good to be true, and honestly, it probably is. 
I mean, who needs that much money for watching videos? And what's up with all these mobile games being promoted? It's like they're preying on people's desire for easy cash. 
How do we know that Freecash isn't just using its app as a way to collect user data and sell it to third-party companies? 
The more I think about it, the more I'm convinced that Freecash is a sneaky app that's taking advantage of people's desire for easy cash. 
. These apps are collecting way more info on us than we realize, and if that info gets leaked or sold to the highest bidder... 
I don't want to even think about it. And then there's the issue of vulnerable users getting taken advantage of – not cool at all.
It's cute if you're into that sorta thing.
As someone who's been around online since the early 2000s, I've seen some weird stuff go down in my time. This one takes the cake, though.
. its like, sounds too good 2 b true, right? 
, cant nobody take responsibility 4 makin em misleading
