More Fraud Information

[Lisaj68]

i dont do them because it is bad enough when bad stuff happens I dont need some fool telling me bad stuff that isnt ever really going to happen. Then I would be so freaked out I would make the bad thing happen and then I would think the psychic was right and spend all my money on that.

ETA: after reading that I realized I either need another drink or mental help LOL

I must need more sleep cause I understood every word you said!!

What's really making my head hurt right now is that on top of all of this, people are cashing out like CRAZY! I think it is a combination of legitimate users worrying that this may mean that they won't get their money and fraudulent users trying to cash out before they get caught. So I am going to have to hold all cashouts right now until everything gets straightened out. We are now getting credits for Edmunds.com revoked. ARGH!

Sorry about all of the stress this is bringing you, Tricia. I hope you got a good night sleep.

Maybe it's the picture of you and your family in your sigy, but I trust that you won't close down your site and take all of our credits with you!

By the way, do the revoked credits appear as quickly as the credits themselves? I haven't seen anything revoked on my account, but I only do the free offers.

Here's hoping for a better day!

Thanks, everyone. I took some kind of OTC sleeping pill that DH uses when he travels internationally. It was pretty funny. I was laying there in bed with my brain in high gear thinking "when is this darn thing going to start working?" Then boom! I opened my eyes and it was 7:00!!

I haven't opened my email yet this morning. Frankly, I'm a little scared. LOL!

I'm not sure why the other programs haven't started posting about the changes. Unless they are afraid that the same thing will happen with them that we are now having (the massive cashouts). Maybe they want to give the advertisers a chance to revoke any credits before people have a chance to cash them out?

Have you seen a lot of offers disappearing off of the other sites?

no one has been as open and honest with me as you have. Not a peep from anyone...the other one that I do and the two others that I have signed up for but never did anything on them yet.

I've seen about $400 drop off of one since yesterday morning.

Tricia...thank you for being open with us! That is why SR is my top site!!!!

I don't do anything but the free offers here and only the daily clicks and trivia on the other sites but I'll go and look. I've noticed that MP isn't sending as many emails but haven't really noticed much of a change from the others. I really don't do much with the other sites so I'm not sure if I'll notice anything different.

By the way, I cashed out last night for $25 for Disney gc because we leave for Disney for the 4th of July but I completely understand you holding the cashouts. Maybe (hopefully) everything will be straightened out in a bit!!!!

I'm sorry, I cashed out also. But I didn't want to wait for the special cash out, I needed the card to pay my friend off for the deposit on our trip. I didn't even know anything was up!

It's interesting that users are being accused of fraud and for the innocent ones, being penalized. What about when fraud was committed against us when many were signed up for Columbia House and BMG without us knowing. I wish I could take something away from them.

BTW, SR is the only program I'll do because I feel that everyone is very honest about what's going on. I like being able to see what other people say about offers and just the general friendly feeling from everyone!

You lost $400! or did they drop $400 in offers? I sure hope you didn't lose that much. That would hurt.

[TXMouseChaser]

So sorry you are having to deal with this! What a week for you !

I don't do many of offers you have to pay for besides the Book Clubs and the Disney Movies and I have kept all those. And I did Vista Prints and I love that one!

I think everything will turn out fine-- you run such a wonderful and honest site. They are having to do this across the board due to all the other sites that are not legit and are not honest how they run their sites. I bet you see a lot of the advertisers coming back to you since you are the BEST and run everything on the up and up!

[docsmom]

I think you are probably right that when the dust settles, and advertisers will be knocking on your door!

In the meantime, shopping and daily surveys are okay with me! You must know the loyalty you have instilled in your members...I'm not going anywhere.
