:mad Watch out for the Adult Friend Finder scam

I joined up back around 1999 or 2000. At one point, they told me I was one of their top 10 affiliates.
Over the years, I earned well over $100K. Sites came and went. A few years at a stretch here and there, I made very little. Sometimes more.

Earlier this year, I started getting "payment declined" because I had not submitted a tax form they need. So I went to my account on the AFF site to fix it.

Every time I went to bring up the form, I got "Your browser connection has been reset".

After a few weeks/months of this, I contacted Support and got the response "We're working on it".

I kept checking back and checking back. Then I got an email saying my account would be killed if I did not provide the form. I emailed again and got no answer at all. I realise now I should have taken it more seriously.

So I contacted them again - via Kalyn on this very message board.

I have now been told that they have no record of my recurrings or my pending payment. All they can offer is for me to set up a new account and they will double the commission for a while. Forget about the recurring.

To me, this is clearly a case of a money-grab. I sold my most recent site a couple of years ago and was getting mostly recurring since. So what do they have to lose by cutting me off? Not much.

Beware of these fuckers! They have just cost me $1000s!
