    ARS took my money back!

    Just got this in the mail:

    Dear Webmaster,

    We have uncovered an error in our payout scripts that resulted in an overpayment of $ 0.06 to you for clicks to For Mature Audiences Only on account xxxxxx. Where possible, we have recouped this overpayment from your current payout. If you do not have enough revenue in your current payout, your account will now have a negative balance. We will continue to recoup any outstanding overpayment amounts from future revenue earned until the balance is retired.

    We have made certain this error won't happen again. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience. We value your business. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call.

    Warmest Regards,
    Becky DeForest

If we continue to develop our technology without wisdom or prudence, our servant may prove to be our executioner.” ― Omar Bradley (1948)
