Adult Friend Finder won't pay my $137 in commissions, which is over a month due according to their own policies (see screen shots below), and won't answer my emails about it.

I've emailed them many times including through their online contact form with no answer. When I called them about it, they gave me a bogus and fishy answer.

As of now, they do not answer any further emails about it, nor have they sent my overdue $137 check. Yet it still remains in my affiliate stats. See the screen shots below for proof.

I've already written AFF and said that if they don't answer my emails, I will report them as fraud to the FTC and put up a webpage on my own site exposing them as well. Yet they continue to ignore me. I've done nothing wrong here other than ask for my commission check.

Fortunately, I've saved a screen shot of my earnings with them, so if they ever remove them, I have proof that they were there. See below. In the 2nd screen shot below, you will see AFF's FAQ saying that they cut checks twice a month with a $50 minimum, so I was due to be paid long ago. Yet no explanation on their end.

Update to my report, Adult Friend Finder lied to me and then banned me!

AUTHOR: Truth Seeker - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Friday, May 15, 2009

Here's the update. Well, Adult Friend Finder changed my membership to the percentage system. Then it said that the new system was retroactive and erased half my earnings, and that they would pay me only $52 instead of the $137 they owed me.

After a while I said, ok, so where's my $52? They didn't answer me. Then when I asked them again, I got a message saying they banned me.

Fricking low life scums.

Here is their message in their own words.

So they promised to pay $52.59 but they didn't. When I asked about it next, they said:
