Updates on the PTCRS.com program. It is now a confirmed scam..
3 days ago I was checking up how my campaigns are doing in each site, and noticed that my grid ad was missing there..
It also happened in another PTCEvo site and I thought it had something to do with their hosting..
The other site put my link back up after placing a support ticket and extended the duration to cover the missing ones..
However PTCRS has still not replied to my support ticket.. then I checked up the site and noticed that it's most likely dead..
Their forum is read only.. the site produced a lot of php errors here and there.. and their T.o.S. now includes this :
Quote:» 12-Why is my account suspended?
Accounts are suspended if a member has tried to cheat our system.
We use sophisticated anti-cheat protection systems to protect our members and our advertisers.
There are many different reasons why your account might be banned.
Changing IP address, using a proxy to hide IP address, fake address details and opening multiple accounts are all reasons for account suspension. Cheaters are blocked for life. No second chances!
Also after some googling it seems that I'm not the only one facing trouble with them..:

EgoPay is also a bit weird about dealing disputes..
At least I only invested $8 in 3 months advertising and I received 42 days of it in good rates (27057 visitors) so it isn't considered a measurable loss. But I'm now in need of new traffic sources because this caused my traffic to drop..
Anyways please keep away from this program.
Take care!
