So I was working on my paid blog entries and I found out that one of the advertisers stole a credit card and made fraudulent purchases through their database. I’m lucky enough to have been one of those people who were screwed because of it. These users were very obviously looking for hits to their website and now they’ve gotten about 60 hits from me and I’m not going to be compensated for it. I say, fuck them up their stupid asses, but hey…that’s just me.
I don’t discredit the company in any way, however. I’ve been paid by the honest advertisers so I’m in no way held back by this sponsor. It just sucks that this happened because now that $60 that I was anticipating for Bella’s grooming isn’t going to show up. I’ll dip into my A.C. money for it though, no real loss there. I now have to go back and edit some blog entries though. Maybe I’ll just replace them with a few memes or something. I don’t like deleting posts and messing up ID numbers in the database. Yea, I’m anal…sue me.
Hello there Kirssy,
I also use PayPerPost – found you through the Posties blog roll actually.
Which advertiser are you talking about that pulled this? How’d they manage to do this?
Wow, this is just crazy…
Krissy: sponsoredreviews.com is the company this went through. The advertisers posts have completely been removed from my site. I think the bone-heads even had the audacity to comment after the fact, who knows. I didn’t care to look into it much further. I just know I’m not getting paid for $60 worth of write-ups that I did. I don’t discredit SR.com though, I’ve gotten every other payment out of them without any problems at all.
That is nuts. I’m sorry. We should linch them xD
Sorry that happened to you. That’s terrible.
