How do app games that ‘give’ you money actually gain profit?

There are adverts about games that say you can generate ridiculous amounts of money just by doing/playing x. Although this is obviously not efficient for the user, how do companies that claim these things gain profit?

Obviously I would have to know the specific game to be able to give an exact answer. However most of them work by making you view ads and they paying you some of what they collect from the ad. For example:

The game gets paid one cent for everyone that watches a 30 second ad. The game then pays you the “player” half a cent for ever commercial you watch. In this model the company is making 50% of the revenue from the ads.

They then claim that you could be making over $400 a month just playing this game!!! (that is watching ads for half a cent, 24 hours a day, every day for 30 days)
