Great clickbait. lol. Anyway, it says it'll pay $10 for a quick 5-minute job.
Enter your coinbase address then, complete an "activity"

The Activity: Posting that link in a website,blog, or public forum.
After which, they'll do a manual check. If okay, they'll send you the coins in the address you provided.

Conclusion: No idea. But this is what scamadviser's got:

! The owner of the website is using a service to hide their identity
! This website is 322 Days old
! The website expected life (366 days) is relatively short.

* So, how about you post an update whether they end up paying you or not.  ;D :o :o

The only way they are going to pay you ( if the site is legit ) is by the coinbase's affiliate program.
It requires the affiliate to buy a minimum of 100$ worth btc from coinbase to get a bonus of 10$, but the bonus is sent only after 180 days to both.

Oh yeah, I heard about that bonus from coinbase. But if so, then why would this site offer an option for 'Enter Address"?
They should be strictly requiring one to create a Coinbase account using their ref link or something.

Oh well, it's a thought. It would be great if it is indeed not a scam, but we see plenty of new ones cropping up and yeah, giving out $10 for posting a site link is indeed fishy.(must be a catch somewhere)

   Anyway, @OP do update.
