haha, they got you at a good time than. I wonder what their reason for banning you was...you can't really investigate 38 cents worth of traffic =P
 
dang that sucks, ive heard a lot of these stories before, ************** seems to be shutting down accounts for the smallest reasons, looks like they're just trying to steal money and gain profit....
 
CPA lead was an outright scam from it's very beginning.They lured affiliates by approving all the underhanded methods (cash incentivizing ,Facebook trickings and everything) first and now they are running away with all the money.

Their lowness can be judged by the fact that they used a shit forum like DP to get affiliates(They actually have a thread running there).

They got over 90% of their offers from other networks.I don't think any serious merchant would have ever paid a thought to has his offers on that network.

A few months back their highest earning publishers were making $5000,$10,000 and $20,000 per day by scamming people on Facebook and elsewhere,now if you look at their chatboard,an affiliate making $150 for the day is called "what a **********"(highest earner).

There are not many affiliate willing to join and promote this network now.Complete death of this scammer network is not far away.Lets hope that FB sue them and they pay a big penalty like the DP admins.
 
yep, they burned me too for a low amount.

But it was all whitehat tragetted traffic. ive never had luck at cpa.
 
I don't know, there were numerous people on DP claiming their doing it legitly, but in the end, Troy owned them pretty hard by public outing their site and the sites indeed breaks TOS

here's one such example

The guy originally claims:

i have been on ************** since december 2009, i login it now and it says , We regret to inform you that your ************** account has been terminated due to the following reason(s):

Violation of TOS

If you feel we have wrongfully terminated your account, please contact (contact address) and be sure to include your publisher ID , i have read the TOS over and over and i do not feel like my account should be terminated for any reason. Well in 16 years on internet i did never be treated as this manner with any affiliate company that i do work for, please verify my account, i can say im very frustated about this treatment as a publisher and i hope is a mistake. Not even a warning is bad, we all make mistakes, but at least i need to know where is that part of the TOS, as i ask always before start a new website, or any type marketing.

Thanks,

Mike ..... Here you have my MSN: (his msn) , and ID#36433

I have sent last month over 25 Amazon Gift cards for over $450.00 to all members from the rewards script, i do not have fake content, all content after surveys is legit , im a good and honest person, so please review my account as i have there over $1493.00 and i paid over $450 on amazon gift cards from my pocket until payday.

Thanks.
**************'s Response:

This is what our compliance team found:

(SITE URL: basically a site with single video of misleading video that has a baby picture with loud screaming sound in the end)

You had it advertised as "Complete this survey to see a couple caught having sex on Google Earth", which is adult content which is against our TOS, and then it turns out to be a baby screaming at the end. Wouldn't you be mad if you completed a survey and saw this?
There were many others with similar sites and they all got revealed, so I doubt they are banning ppl for no reason
 
My account is still in tact, but switching over to Adscend because their offers aren't converting very well from my traffic :cool:
 
Well, well, well.......

After looking at this thread, I decided to look at my BRAND NEW account and guess what?

Account "Closed due to inactivity" wow........really, dude?

Now, let's get something straight.

I have broken NO TOS. I have done absolutely no FB or whatever.......

No movie sites, none of that BS.....

So, it is interesting all of the different "spins"(the reasons) on the accounts being closed.

I have to tell you, this does not look good.

I can understand someone getting owned because they broke some copyright laws, that is understandable.

No wonder you can NOT say their name here.........

Are any of these smaller companies run by an true professionals? I mean really. First, there was the video that showed douches from whatever that company was, acting like adolescents, now you have these guys from C----P___LED with this stuff....

I am sticking with the most reputable, from now on........this is complete Bullshit....

We need a sticky here with the most to least reputable......

BTW, there are multiple ways to make your own content locker or widget. You don't need
C......you know who.

Wow, what losers these guys are.
 
lol at people actually using cpa lead. The took a free script they found online, made it look all "cool", put a simple api that a 5 year old could code. Contacted neverblue, incentaclick, a4d, etc, and loaded it up with offers

Their whole plan probably took 1-2 days to put into action. I hope they run away with everyones money since yall seem to be outsmarted by some idiots using free scripts. They literally made money out of something that you could google and install on your server.

Care to share the free script? That would be cool.

Sad to see this stuff happening.
 
You guys are making me a little paranoid..
I haven't had my account terminated (yet) though I am worried.
I haven't done anything against the TOS as far as I know and am in regular contact with my AM over there so I would like to think if I was crossing a line somewhere he would let me know.

That being said, I have the next payment earmarked to go to the INS so I can get my greencard so I hope I don't put a blip on their radar.

Also I believe you can reapply if you get booted and if you didn't do anything extremely illegal or against the TOS in a major way you can sign some "I'm gonna be a good boy" form and fax it to them to get back in.

I am having a Site which brings me 10-15$ a day through CPA lead,after hearing this,I am thinking of swtiching the traffic for a different content locker company like for eg:leadbolt,instantDollarz etc.Can somebody tell me should I do that?I already have a Net30 payment pending for last month,you guys're making me nervous.Apparently everyone promotes some or the other Copyrighted Content right.
 
Great alternative is blackhat codebreaker.
Is there an option of disabling surveys for all 3rd world countries and allowing it only for 4 or 5 countries with Black hat codebreaker so that I can monetize the visits from those countries from adsense ads.In CPA lead such option was there,so I was able to make money from both adsense and from cpa lead,ie I get clicks from countries where I disable the surveys.

And to think I just bought into the BHWP thing offered here :(

I would be interested in this script as well... :batman:
 
Maybe they are up to something, I don't know. However, I would agree with other statements that the vast majority of leads with ************** are being generated based on copyrighted material. Mostly tv and movies. I'm not saying that's why anyone here had their account banned, just stating it's what most ************** users are doing.

That would be fairly easy to set up.. use maxminds geoip.
have 2 includes.. bhcb.php and adsense.php

in your page header have something like

geoip_country=us,uk,ca,whatever
include bhcb.php
else
include adsense.php

in adsense.php have your ad codes like:
$leaderboard="echo 'adsense leaderboard code'";
$skyscraper yadda yadda
$box blah blah

and in your page template you can have <?php echo"$leaderboard";?>
and so on.

in your bchb.php file you have the normal code you'd include in the header for it plus add $leaderboard="echo ' ' "; (it wont echo anything in the template then, or you could use other cpa banner codes in it's place)

The above is not actual code (duh) but should put you on the right path.

Well it seems like a lot of people are getting there account " Terminated " in my case my account is only frozen and i have to provide proof of my method which happened to me before and i got paid after.. so i think i still have a chance if getting paid in some way
