    1 Star I see monkeys and embedded scams 16/06/2002
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages None.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages I do not recommend Treeloot.com to anyone or anything, it is an awfully convinceable scheme that has gone too far.

    The Concept of Treeloot.com is by clicking on a huge tree (approximately 350,000 spots located on a click able grid) you will have the opportunity to receive banana bucks. These are forms of a reward that you can cash in for various prizes. Now, when you think about this long enough, what are truly the odds everyone is guaranteed to win something in merely 5 minutes? Sounds impossible, well, to the people at Treeloot.com they are backing the promise up with their given word. Maybe they have been lying all the way through. The Game When you start off clicking on the tree, it seems a lot of fun ... more

    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages Uhmmn...whoever programmed the tree's grid was talented with HTML and graphics software?

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Everything else.

    Shove The Monkey Up Somebody’s Backside. That is what I felt like doing about ten minutes into my one and only experience with treeloot.com. I found treeloot through a link on some Web site or another that I happened to be visiting at the time. “What the hell,” I thought, “I’ll give it a shot and see what happens.” The idea behind Treeloot.com’s scam is simple: Convince users to continue clicking on an enormous grid (shaped like a tree, hence the site’s name) in order to wish cash and other prizes. After every click, you are taken to a screen ... more

    1 Star SCAM warning 11/05/2001
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages wastes 20 minutes if you really really have no life

    Disadvantages Disadvantages ***SCAM SCAM SCAM SCAM***

    First of all, lets make the major point in case you get bored by the end of this op. ***TREELOOT IS A SCAM AND YOU'D BE A FOOL TO GO ANYWHERE NEAR IT!*** Thats about the sum of this opinion, but if you wnat to know why you should avoid treeloot.com like the plague, then read on... ...just don't be tempted to visit... Treeloot.com is a hugely popular American site - hugely popular because despite how ridiculous it is, it is also extremely addictive, although your chances of winning are extremely remote if not non-existent. The idea behind Treeloot is this: You are presented with a large tree ... more

    1 Star Spank your monkey. 12/05/2001
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages It's fun, I suppose.

    DisadvantagesDisadvantages The prizes aren't proper prizes, they'll send you loads of spam

    If you've been using the Web for long enough, you've probably learnt to ignore the banner ads that appear on so many pages. You might well have learnt to ignore them so well that someone can talk about some adverts that have been doing the rounds, and you'll fail to recognise the description at all, even if you've seen it loads of times. Treeloot.com may or may not be an exception. They have the most annoying, intrusive adverts imaginable (with the possible exception of some Casino adverts which try so hard to be noticed that they can really distract you when you're trying to surf the web) ... more

    1 Star SCAM WARNING 24/09/2001
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages none

    Disadvantages Disadvantages time wasting, junk mail, lying, cheating...grrrr

    Ok, I think the title pretty much says it all to be honest but I’ll carry on anyway. Treeloot.com is an American site which basically promises the Earth and gives you absolutely nothing in return. You’ll recognise its banners if not its name - they’re the ones which invite you to say ’’Shock The Monkey and win $50’’ and have a monkey sliding up and down the banner. Of course just click anywhere on the banner and you’ll be taken to the site - this is where your misgivings should begin - already they are scamming you into thinking you are playing ... more

    1 Star You got more chance finding a needle in a haystack! 11/09/2000
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages None!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Its a scam!

    Treeloot is one of those annoying little sites that have been placed on the internet in order to annoy and irritate you! This game, if you can call it that, is a total waste of time and money. I found it by clicking onto an ad box, a thing which I am reluctant to do since. You spend hours clicking on various parts of a tree looking for cash, of which I am convinced there is none. All you get from this site is a headache while they of course get rich from your time there. It is also an incredibly slow site, it takes ages for each page to load. I would advise anyone not to waste their time here ... more

    1 Star What a con this is 18/02/2001
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages NONE!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages You name it

    Click, click, click, click. That's all you ever seem to do I have never heard of anyone who's "won" anything off Treeloot.com You see the banners everywhere: "punch the monkey to win $20" etc I know exactly where they can stick their monkey. You click through all these mountains of ads and get encouraging words like "you're really close", "almost there"...etc etc etc All the time you're racking up advertising money for them and all they give you in return is RSI and a bad temper. Don't waste your time here...avoid it and do something useful instead. It's not even worth doing if you're bored ... more

    1 Star Total waste of time 25/04/2001
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages None

    Disadvantages Disadvantages A waste of time, slow, boring, no prizes..

    I completley agree with all the other opinions that have been submitted about this site, its a absolute waste of time. The site itself supposedly lets u win thousands of dollars but i've never heard about anyone that has won a single thing from it. The site comprises of a tree where you must click in to win prizes, a monkey ocassionally gives you tips as to where prizes are and asks for your name. If you are very lucky and click there about a hundred times you get to the bonas round. If you do have a go and click on the literally hundreds of thousands of squares that are located in the tree ... more

    1 Star You'd be a MONKEY for going there!! 08/10/2000
    User doesn't recommend the product
    This is another site that promises to make you a winner - the principle is you click on the tree where the money is located - the problem is there are over 500,000 different spots where the money could be located. Every time you click on the tree you can win a certain number of banana bucks. These banana bucks can be redeemed @ the Redemption Hut for various things. The only proper prize that you can redeem is a toy monkey (it took me 64 minutes to get enough bucks to get this)! All the othe items are really cheap in banana bucks because they are actually offers that other sites give for free ... more

    5 Stars Leave those monkeys alone 25/09/2004
    User doesn't recommend the product

    Advantages Advantages none

    Disadvantages Disadvantages none

    My first experience of going to Treeloot.com was the other day. I went there before, but didn't play long so I logged out. The other day when I went to that wed site, I said to myself, will I really win something are they just pulling my leg. So I read the rules and everything, and I also read where they said, if you don't win anything in 15 mins, we will give you $100.00 dollars. I went on to play and I played and played, after 15 mins, I did'nt get no money, all I was getting was those monkeys telling me how good I was doing and to keep up the good work. There was also an arrow that tells ... more
