There are a couple of ways to look at it. One is to accept that the values on the "offers" page are marked up by 15% relative to the actual payouts. I find that I'm much more annoyed about spending time trying to get to a survey that eventually decides that I'm "not qualified", or trying to get some web game to work. (As far as I've been able to tell, everything on games.softgames.de is completely broken.)

Another way to look at it is that such bait-and-switch tactics tend to be in violation of consumer-protection laws. :-)  "Come into our store for these amazing deals!  Whoops, now that you're inside, we're not going to give you the deal we promised!"

I've sent a message to BBB about the broad problem. I haven't (yet) brought up that last point with them. It might be interesting to do so, especially given that they and I are in the same jurisdiction. We'll see how they respond.
