Did anybody else lose any of thier referrals recently? I just checked my account and I lost 11 tiers of referrals. Yesterday I was not even a dollar away from cashout and now I have 79 cents! This was my favorite gptr company, not now! I can't contact them because when I click on the contact button it gives me the page cannot be displayed.

oh no!!!!!

i just seem to have lost my account! I had over 40 in my 1st level and over 400 going down the 20 levels!
i have just contacted email2read using the contact form and had no problem using it.
i only just got paid by them the other week so i dont think there should be any real problems with them but....

lisa

Tier 12: (9 Total Referrals)
Tier 13: (2 Total Referrals)

ouch
i was promoting email2read quite heavily and had gotted up to 44 first level referrals on friday which is when i last checked the account cause i have to work on the weekends. i will be rather peeved if all my downline is gone
lisa0967
Sep 15 2002, 11:26 AM
correct me if i'm wrong but shouldn't webmasters have a backup copy of member accounts done every so often just incase this very thing happens so that they can restore them if things go wrong. so it may be a few days old but losing a few days activity is better than losing the lot
Leah
Sep 15 2002, 11:43 AM
I know, they should have backup but it's up to them to make it or not and some don't take or have the time I guess. If the webmaster really want to help here the downline thread can be a great help, it will not give you back your 44 first tier ref but at least your 20 tiers of referrals. Maybe you can send him the link.

I made my password a combination of letters and numbers, and not easy to guess, and not like any of my other passwords. But how often do you think I should change it?

Everybody, check your computers for spywares, trojans and other nasty things. Hackers could be using your computer to go through the programs as well. Look for things like Hack'A'tack and keyloggers. If they know your passwords for the programs you are in, they would know your password for your ISP when you logon to the Internet.

I check my pc for virus, and all that stuff at least once a week. I've got ad-aware, norton, zone alarm and all that stuff. Your right poncer everyone that dosn't have protection should check if they have any bad things, or even if they do have protection, I just ran my virus and ad-aware.

I had Spyware and Trojans on my computer before I downloaded ZoneAlarm. They were located on my second harddrive invisible to me. I got my ZoneAlarm back in March.

Do you have the pro version?
Poncer
Sep 15 2002, 08:12 PM
Nope. I can't afford it. I am using the free version. I am hoping I can earn enough on these programs I joined to buy these things and help pay the bills. I am unemploy and am disabled as well. Trying very hard to earn money, but right now, it is hard when this person who has been harassing me is keeping me from making any money.

I have the free one too. I just saw your thread about the person harassing you, why the heck do people do that to other people

. Hope you can get that person in jail or something! Best of luck to you!

Thanks Austin. I still need to hear from someone else hopefully sending me suspect posts for me to look at that I supposed to have made. I could also use that against her as well as part of the evidence as well.

anyway getting back to topic
this is an email i just recieved from email2read
QUOTE
Well, I have gone through all the referrals that are linked to you
and think I have gotten rid of the hacker thatinfected you. Most
of your referrals were deleted. A large number were not conbfirmed,
and seversal had no earningd=s and 1 was infected by your hacker.
They seem to grab onto someone liek you and damage your database
and then latch onto a referal to store theier program to hang on
to damage more. I know this is coming from Eastern Europe because
the sub-programs are written in Cryllic.
Anyway, you will need to rejoin the program because your file just
was not saveable. Then if it works, I will restore your referrals
and you can go back to advartising.
Thanx Dvae
go to www,email2read.com and sign up all over again
HOPE IT WORKS
i will go back to the downline builder and resign under the person i signed up under before so that things will get back on track (fingers crossed)

Leah
Sep 20 2002, 02:25 PM

Well he let us redeem our earning so he's not getting away with our money.
As I understand it he will pay everyone balance so that mean your .34 too.
He will pay more that way.
I have redeem my balance, I'll post when I get paid.

I'm positive it's hackers. I got paid $10 from them before, and within 2 days of request. I really admire Dave's integrity--offering to pay people what they are owed so far, even if it's not cashout. You don't see that every day.
Too bad I'm in negative numbers...

Sep 20 2002, 02:51 PM
I agree - it's hackers. I got paid $10 last week, and on the same day I requested it. Dave's a nice guy.
I'm negative now, too: was -3 the other day, and now it's -6.
Leah
Sep 20 2002, 10:40 PM
already got my payment. That was really fast.
Dave is really a great and honest webmaster and I will rejoin as soon as he relaunch the program.
