On hold for doing free offer? WTF

I did a trade for pistonz and he went grey on my freegamingsystems. He said he was put on hold for doing a free offer, shoppers advantage. Does that sound tight? Did the TOS change or something?

Bullshit...

wtf?

that doesnt make sense to me.....ive not done a gratis site for a while so maybe they have changed the TOS.

you'd think though that if he wasnt meant to do the free offer, then they wouldnt have put up there for him to do.

maybe he has already done it, or has too many accounts with shoppers advantage and thats why they greyed him. lishrugsli

i smell bullshit...... roll

They won't let you sign up again if you made too many accounts. Shoppers advatage wouldn't that is...

Interesting that this guy is also selling a OC account and was very firm on the fact that me would not pay money back to the buyer if referrals turned red.

i only said that maybe he had too many accounts cos i had to call DermFX for wrongly charging me, and they said i had 6 accounts!

i didnt even know i made that many.

and that is a bit fishy about him specifying the fact that he wont refund anyone whose greens turn red......hmmm

What did you say in response to the 6 accounts? Would've killed to hear that convo... P

I also smell bullshit. Out of all the people here, has anyone (other than theysayjump) had anything like this happen to them?

Yeah, but you didn't go grey. That's what the concern is over.

i didnt even know i had 6 accounts, ive not done the offer that many times, but i think it was from forgetting my password so i just made a new account.

she didnt seem to have a problem that i had 6 accounts though. D

I think my worst conversation was when I used my fiance's credit card and account to do Simple Escapes.

I called, but I forgot I used her CC. So when they asked for name I gave her my name and my address. However, I did this offer like a year ago for freegiftplanet, so all she could find was that account. Then I thought ok maybe I used my girl's CC. When I cancel offers I do with her CC I always say I'm cancelling for my wife so that what I said.

So then she's like ok what's her first name. I told her. She says "same last name right?"

I paused for a second and said, no, different last name.

Then she said "same address right?"

Realizing I'm an asshole, I said, "no different address."

She knew something was up and said, "so your wife doesn't share your last name or live with you, but you're cancelling her account?"

I said yes, ready to hang up and call later without being a dumbass.

She cancelled it though. She also repayed me $15 they charged me since I was 3 days late to cancel it.

lmao....thats good!

I guess this is what they told him...

"Thanks for writing in about your account's status. We have placed your account on hold due to suspicion of fraud. We have taken a closer look at your account, and have decided that it will remain on HOLD status. Due to high levels of fraud, we are forced to take actions against users who attempt to do our free offers. We take all and all types of fraud very seriously, and since we give our products away for free, we cannot afford to be lenient on dishonest methods users try to obtain their free items."

Does that make sense?

Here is the deal.

I did Shoppers Advantage.

and I referred 3 people. All of the did Shoppers Advantage for me.


My account is in HOLD right now.

I don't know what the reason is. This is the message I got.

[quote5ea23491b4]While you have completed all the requirements to get a FREE XBOX 360, we have reviewed your account and referral offer completions and have placed your account on hold. We have determined that your referrals appear to not be unique users. Because we make money from advertisers who only pay us for unique users, we cannot credit you for these referrals.[/quote5ea23491b4]



I don't understand why? if my referrals are not unique, if they signed up before, then why is my accoun placed in HOLD?

This is crazy. I don't want them to make offers disapear like Offer Centric bu maybe they can make an offer unavailable after 2 or 3 signups or show how many times an offer has been signed up for so you can tell the people not to do the same one. How are we to know and/or control what offers these people do?

yea, its true. thats what they told me. after lakers told me it went gray i refunded him, so its not like i was makin it up.

cartenroy - that happens when several of your referrals go gray, and you fall under the required # of referrals.
