How Much Money Have you been Burned for in this Business?
 

I know of a few guys that are owed over $10k and can't collect, I'm personally in the process of being burned right now for a grand, small beans compared but it still pisses me off.. for me it's the principle more than the amount.

So how much are you owed but can't seem to collect?

Nothing yet but i know the day will come

Nothing yet

Lancelot, Globill and Ibill :321GFY

thousands and thousands

Not too bad actually. Would have been alot worse but then I got paid out by a affilate program.

close to $200k from over the years

Count your blessings

Yo Adrian owes me a favor for those trannys i hooked him up with last year. Haven't seen shit yet from him. now he up and runs to New Mexico?! wtf adrian? :P

I'm still salty about the $330 that smutcash/wowcash burned me for back in 2001.

edit...and that was the same time silvercash discontinued the ppc program...HOwever, silvercash PAID me what was owed and moved to pps while smutcash stiffed me and their business shut down.

Fuckers.

So far been close few times , but I have not been burnt "yet"

Hey, I thought that was a birthday gift???

Enough. More than I'd care to admit, actually.

probably close to 20k. lost a big chunk of money when dialers got in shit back in 2000, got ripped on some coded programs i bought. surprisingly tho sponsors were the ones who burned me the least. only lost out on a few hundred here and there with them.

globill - lost money
ibill - lost money

lots of programs take a shit.

ive been fucked over on design work

list goes on.

i lost $3500 bucks like two years back to a dialer company. fuck it, sometimes there's just nothing you can do.

Dayum :mad:

YARGH! Globill took me for a pretty penny.

Lost about 60k in the dialer game back in the day. Other than that not much.

28k - UK Dialer - 2003 ( but that was profit, not investment, so I won't cry.)
12k - Sypro - (I cried.)

ibill - lost money and various dialers

Only 2k from a shitty SEO company that never did anything for me.

just because it was profit doesn't make it less important...

I rather not talk about how much I got scammed/robbed over the years, no need to get depressed thinking in bad shit :2 cents:

sometimes if you close your eyes really tight,you can pretend you never expected it :( :(

Hmmm lets see what I can remember offhand, I am sure people owe us alot more than this...

20K+ by Jon Atherton on the Paris Hilton thing
$5k by Win from Sincity.com
$2200 by Jim from RX9.com
$600 by Platinum Lantern

Fuck I don't want to even look at our accounts receivable LOL!

DH

Other than 60k, not much? :1orglaugh

The dialer crash was brutal

LMAO, jackass.

I got burned in a business deal and Modelgig.com got stolen away from me. I would say at least $20K

Several thousand, probably close to 10, in rebills from Website Billing.

Never say never to being able to collect :)

I've been burned more times than I can count on one hand and it disgusts em so much I don't even want to post the figures here.

It makes me sick to hear that someone would burn you Adrian. After all, you are probably one of the more decent human beings in this business. Tell us who it is and we'll promise to become the biggest pain in the ass for this person/company. I don't care if it's the largest program, content provider, hosting company, designer, or whatever. That's bullshit, especially considering you have a wifey and kid to support (and just underwent a big move which I'm sure is costly). What kind of monster would do that to a person such as yourself? :mad:

ouch 20k on 1 deal?

Several thousand dollars. But you live and learn.

I was just thinking about this the other day. Probably in the 20k-30k$ range going back to 99. Used to get ripped off a shitload back in the day when there were tons fly by night operations, it used to always be a huge gamble to try out a new sponsor. Glad to say I havent been ripped off since a dialer resaler I was using ran off with everyone's money back in Sept/Oct of 2001.

Over 2 Million In the mid/Late 90's.

I'm always amazed at how unprofessional some
people are in this biz. I say "name the guy (or girl)!" :disgust

Or you can just send me to their house and I'll
beat them up. I might be small, but I still pack a mean punch. :winkwink:

Too much.

Thanks for the kind words bro.. but I'm going to keep trying to get what's owed w/o taking it public, yet. It's a small amount from a big company, which burns me up the most.

only like $200 from intergal.

over the years probbly 10k in total rfom bankrupt clients, run aways and bad contracts
The years go by and get bit wiser but i dontthink it will ever stop completely
