Hello, been a long time reader, first time poster. Heres my problem:

I signed up at mp3players4free about a month ago. Thought the offer was within reach and soon discovered the joy of Conga lines. I quickly received 7 referrals (3 turned out to be non-U.S but at the same time was receiving a number of spam warnings. I began to panic (as I did not want my account disqualified) and removed all links (one in a general gaming forum and the other in a conga line) but was still receiving complaints and my account was put on hold. I emailed them and they replied with a number of peoples complaints which were claiming I was a scammer etc and had links to http://www.suprnova.org some torent warez site. Turns out my referral link is in some spam file on this site stating if you complete an offer you will receive a halflife game serial. I’m not sure whether the link was mistyped or put there intentionally - its beyond me. I emailed them telling them that it was not I who posted that spam file. They understood the situation at hand and unsuspended my account. However it was only another couple of days that my account was once again suspended - probably due to an automated system when a number of complaints are received which didn’t account for my situation. I now have 13 eligible referrals, many which I do not know and probably fell for spam file on supernova. I am now unable to contact offercentric via email and have had to contact them through the website and the person replying is unaware to the current situation.

What should I do? It’s a major nuisance causing me a LOT of grief. Thanks in advance.

So someone just HAPPENED to put your referral in the torrent file? And consequently, that person who HAPPENED to use your referral link was giving away all his/her potential referrals to you…  :think:
