Market leverage scam

I sent some traffic last month to Market Leverage for a couple days. I found a better payout with another network and switched my traffic to them. I left a message with my AM Erick Bright on AIM asking when i will receive my first payment. He called back a few hours later saying that the traffic i sent was all fradulent and the leads were from the same person. This was the most BS thing ive heard and ive dealt with many networks. I asked Erick to provide me with more infromation from the advertiser. ANd im still waiting for his response. Although it was only around $2500 in traffic i'm not to concerned about not being paid. They said they are going to receive more details from the advertiser from that campaign. But seriously is the only network that im now cautious about.
 
Wow... pretty surprised to hear all this. Probably enough bad press for me to heed caution and move anything we have through them to someone else. I've never had a problem with them thus far - but I don't want to chance it.
 
When I applied to them I got into contact with a guy there and I said I'd call him during office hours. So I called 3 different days a few times between 3 and 5 PM and he was never in... then when I emailed about it he started emailing me things like "I'm in the office now if you want to give me a call"... only this was at around 2am here.

So I just went fuck it and gave up on them... guess it was a blessing in disguise!
 
^^ No, I bet it will. They have posted on wf before in the past but as they have grown they have left wf and are more worried about keeping a few bloggers happy we goodie bags and contests.

Let the countdown begin..
 
I've had no problems with them, and their FEDEX payments are dope. Most affiliate networks don't want to F*CK you, however; they often get F*CKED by their clients and thus need to F*CK you. SNAFU (Situation Normal All F*CKED Up) as they used to say in the Army.

Do you feel cool when you swear in capital letters but still use an asterix?
 
that cash booth and their aggressive pitching of it while you're walking down the isle looking straight ahead at shows has me really wanting to walk by and chuck handfuls of loose change at them.
 
The problem with Market Leverage is their business ethics compared to other networks. Most networks would still go out on the limb and pay their affiliates if the advertiser decides to bail on them. But Market Leverage on the other hand doesn't want to take the loss, so they simply decide to just not pay you. So I wouldn't say that they are intentionally scamming anyone, just that their ethics aren't up to gear to other reputable networks.
 
I remember them sending me emails saying that they will terminate my account if I don't reply them. So lame.
 
Ya, I agree the stupid lack of inactivity emails are ridiculous. Almost felt like taking the min to email back saying close it.

:(

i knew these guys would come in go. they kind of bought there way into the industry and i knew it wouldnt last. these guys spend so much on crap competitions and sending out bags of gifts to people (i actually got one). It wouldn't surprise me at all if these guys are starting to lose money. Also there pretty slow with the AM trend products. they always seem to get shit last and what they do have is 90% make money at home products.

Ill give them a year tops before they have some sort of money management issues or something where they end up spending more money trying to keep that good image on blogs. I also think its funny how they think tylercruz is some big shot in the industry. truth is he doesn't even work in AM or at least he din't when they started promoting on his blog with these contests. in fact i wouldn't even consider his site a make money blog at all its just his personal ramblings.
