I Was Rip-Off by PayingPost.com

I have written 9 posts for Paying Post Company. That started last November. I seldom grab the opportunity because I find it weird because they will pay me if I reach $25. I have $19 at that time.

So, I tried grabbing one more opportunity. It reached to $32. They issue another memo that there are changes made. Instead of $25, they will pay the bloggers when they reach to $50.

I ask some of the bloggers if they were paid. One of them said, she was paid anyhow. So, I grabbed another opportunity and my money reaches $52. WALLAHHH! Another memo came. They will only pay once I reach $100.

Now, that is really FISHY huh? Read through this article of Mommy Dharlz: BEWARE, PayingPost.com is a Scam. She had more than a hundred but, never get paid. For so many months she had more than a hundred, that is really alarming. She sent them inquiry and they don't reply.

I cut my loses while its still $52. I erase my account. I deleted my reviews because I do not want to give traffic to Payingpost.com. My rate for them is ZERO and I guess Mommy Dharlz is right.

Now, if you have the same experience, do not let this pass by. Warn others too. I guess the advertisers didn't know that this company is not paying the bloggers who did the reviews.

Amy, thanks for sharing and talking about this because like you, I have an account with them. But I never wrote anything for them, and will not do so now. At least you're doing your part to make sure your friends don't fall victim to this either.

wala pa ko nakaabot sa threshold na 50 when i found out from Dharlz plurk that they made another changes na 100 na nga yung kanilang bagong threshold ngayon. Ano eto, lokohan? This has to stop. yung ibang mga bloggers halos di na matutulog kaka chase ng opps at kaka post tas ganun lang pala. alam mo magandang gawan ng campaign ito. I'm sure marami pang maglalabasan at susuporta.

oh gosh begosh..kaya pala ssige lang adjust ako payout sa ila. 1st $25 lang day, naka $21 sabi, change daw sa $50 payout, karon kay $42 nako, change na pod sa $100..kaayo ra luokon. ako to i-delete diay ako account then delete pod nako ako review na nahimo sa ila ug maybe ako e-email sad ang advertisers na wa nag bayad ang payingpost sa mga bloggers. ka way batasan.

I only wrote twice from payingpost and I never checked the site again bec its kind of hard to get some opps actually so it made me less interested.

And after knowing this, I will delete my account as well. Thanks for sharing Ams gwafs.
