DO NOT RECOMMEND for anyone who wants to put effort into their site!

I signed up nearly 40 customers in less than a month and waited patiently for them to finish the “verification” process. After one month (30 days) affiliates are to be paid on the first of the following month.

Today (December 21, 2008) I receive an “announcement” in my affiliate home page stating the following (which others report as well):

“”"Announcement: we have started to use 60 days signup verification procedure (we used 30 days signup verification system before). That is because we received lots of fraudulent signups especially from Vietnam and China and we need more time to check everything. So if you have referred user today, it will be credited in 2 months. We need these 2 months to protect us from fraudulent signups. We are sorry if we made any inconveniences for you and let us to know if you have any questions.”"”

FUNNY though, because I ONLY accept US traffic through google adwords and facebook ads, so there is NO POSSIBLE WAY that you were getting ANY Chinese and/or Vietnamese traffic to my referral link.

This is teh SAME tactic they use on everyone else. The thing is, this announcement was NEVER updated in their terms of service, thus making it a non-enforceable term of the affiliate promoting/payment conditions. As such the host is in breach of their contractual obligation to meet the payment deadline of January 1st if they indeed intend to hold off payment for another 30 days.

I suggest ANYONE who was scammed by this company take the time to report them to the host as well as PAYPAL so that paypal investigates and hopefully FREEZES their assets associated with their paypal account and puts a bit of hindrance at the very least on their scamming.

I also encourage anyone that has been scammed to file a formal complaint with the FBI online fraud division: http://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx They are there to stop online fraud, even for just a few hundred bucks. With enough of us together, we will get the FBI’s attention.

Also file a complaint at the FDC. http://www.fdc.gov

I make a living promoting websites, so it deeply insults me when an affiliate program doesn’t live up to its end of the agreement.

000webhost owes me for hundreds of accounts that I referred to them, and they only way to get a response from support is with threats, but even that doesn’t do anything in the end.
