I got some great friends in this biz it seems...
 

Just wanted to post a big hearty "THANK YOU" to Mr. Yum, Radical, BlueBrit, GG and specially Surfin.

Had a dilema with a sponsor accusing me of "fraud" ..wtf?!?! me? lol and they all offered me suggestions and Surfin finally found the proof in the pudding for me to prove I did not fraud anyone!!

I can breath a sigh of relief (until they find some other lying reason not to pay me)

If this doesnt get resolved, I will be posting the sponsor who accused me of fraud just so they dont have to pay me. Will give them time to respond to my email before I jump the gun :)

Thanks Guys!!!! *Group Hug*

Was my pleasure hun, my pleasure, now please give me back my fleshlight!

Ohh is that what that rubber thing is?!

Well u stole me last one, sniff |roses|

Always glad to help darlin...the pleasure was mine :)

You are most welcome sweetie. I try to help all my friends if I can. I much rather see posts with :) than posts from friends with :(

Big huggles work too...cept with guys |shocking|

Good to see evryone pulled together to help you out :)

Just remember to keep us posted - I just can't fucking stand when honest webmasters are accused of fraud |angry|

I think I heard MML say that if it would make you feel better you could put on your latex and or leather and flog his hairy butt :D

friends in this industry are not just nice to have, I believe they are essential to anyones success in the biz. Sounds like you have a group of goods ones. Speaks very highly of you :)

Nope it's not nice, I've had it done to me aswell by a sponsor, I'll never promote any of their programs and or programs affiliated to them!

small update:

They are looking into it and will get back to me soon! LOL

I am really hoping for an apology for the "assumption" I defrauded them just because I sent hits.. and the hits didnt convert for them. Its MY job to find surfers and send them along.. it is THEIR job to make the sales. I used no "blind" links or trickery to get the surfer to go there either.

Kinda pissed that was all that was in the email also because not only did I "prove" to them I had the link up.. but I also addressed numerous things about their program in my email.. none which were answered... yet...

Will give them more time to get their act together.. But if its more than a week im posting names and not taking any chit!

On a fun note.. its snowing like a banshee here - hasnt stopped since yesterday and it is now "blizzard" conditions - Good time for cuddles and hot chocolate :)

Thanks everyone for your support |roses|

Huggles and hot cider are the order of the day here too. It's like January outside here |crazy|

This sounds like we have heard this song before. If the singer is the same, a pattern could be established. I am surprised that any sponsor would attack Emerald. Sure hope it works out for her

Chop - thats the same thing that struck me as soon as I read this - if its the same sponsor I can guarantee that they will lose a heck of a lot of traffic - the word will go out as soon as its published here - and it wont take long for even the Dutch WMs to respond :)

Yep, floored me when I heard someone had accused Emerald of fraud |crazy|

Obviously someone who doesn't know the link list game very well at all.

I think this is a different singer & probably just a confused tech guy, as the owner is well know in the biz & has a good rep.

Em, I had a sponsor a few years ago try to pull the same deal (basically said I must be sending fraudulent signups because not enough trials were converting).

I asked them to check the source of the traffic. It was almost entirely their hosted galleries.

My account with them has been doing quite well ever since.

Emerald I love your traffic :-)

*blushes*

awww thank you :) appreciate the nice feedback!!!

always a nice feeling when someone says good things about your hard work.

I had the same thing happen to me way way back in the first few years of my LL - I was livid and shocked at the accusations but did nothing about it. Wonder if it is the same outfit?

(The joke is on them tho... I resigned up with them back in July and they are now my 2nd best converting and money making sponsor right now - go figure!)

I dont understand how they can accuse us of fraud. I still maintain it isnt my job to convert the sale. I can do everything in my power with the sales pitch and get the surfer to at least have a look to see what he might be missing - but ultimately it is the sponsors job to get the perve to sign up. If the tour just sucks then its their fault! just my 2 cents.. err 1 cent (canadian)

New Update:

Good news on the Sponsor VS Emmy saga!

Got an email from the owner of the program saying the problem was on their end and a check will be cut on Monday.

This is the feel good thread of the year :)

Its nice when everyone jumps in and helps out and and it all works out ok in the end! |headbang|

Nice...congrats Emerald |thumb

Kinda figured someone would be re-thinking their position pretty quickly :D
