This is the story of Dead13 - Post from AWI

*****************************************
Check this bullshit out.

Adultplex, used to be EZ-Green, have not only scammed me out of money but they tried to scam me out of even more. I do have all proof in the form of saved e-mails for anyone who wants to verfiy this is true.

So heres the story ?

I used to promote Adultplex remote sign up boxes and Pay Sites and was paid for my first pay period. A month after the second pay period passed I had not received a check so I e-mailed asking about my money. I had e-mailed several times before and always received very quick and helpful support, however, this time after sending several e-mails I never received a responce about my payment.

So naturally I said, "Fuck it," and I got rid of them and all of their materials on my sites.

NOT END OF STORY!!!

A few months later I received an e-mail from Bryan Streitfeld ICQ 165029472 e-mail [email protected] (feel free to bomb his ICQ and e-mail accounts) .

This e-mail stated that I had not promoted them in a while and asked for me to come back and begin promoting them again. So I sent a reply that I was no longer promoting them because I was screwed out of a payment and no body would respond to my messages about it.

Of course I received a very fast reply telling me all problems taken care of and that I would see that money the 1st week of February and I could continute to promote their program.

Not even close. First of all I told him ok after I receive my check I will start again but not until then. Smart move, because of course no check ever came.

So I waited till the end of the month and sent him an e-mail asking where is my money. I got a responce that they did not have a W-9 on file for me but if I would fill one out and fax it in they would be happy to pay me.

Here are my problems with this...

1. I have never had to fill out and fax a W-9 to any sponsor EVER!!!!
2. I have been paid by Adultplex before without a W-9!!!!
3. Why didn't he tell me this 2 months ago when he agreed to pay me?!?!?!
4. Now that I have sent e-mails and ICQ messages debateing the issue he suddenly no longer responds to anything, surprise, surprise.
5. I do not have a Fax machine or access to one and I am not going to waste my money at Staples or Kinkos for what is clearly just an excuse to not pay me.
6. On top of that having to give all of my personal information to a company that obviously cannot be trusted.

DO NOT TRUST THIS SPONSOR!!!!

And bomb the fuck out of them demanding that they pay me and everyone else they fucked over. It is time that webmasters finally do something to fight back against behavior like this, lets put these types of sponsors in their places.

I need your opinions because i'm in the process to start a campaign with AdultPlex.

Thanks
