Honey Mail......What Was The Point?

The program owner that reactivated this site not quite a month ago really shouldn't have bothered.

1) she makes the site ads only but refuses to run upgrade ads or reopen the redemption page.

2) she refuses to approve ptp rotator urls

3) she pats herself on the back so hard its a wonder she didn't break an arm for setting the ptp to pay $2.00 per 1000 when it still pays .50 (50 cents) per thousand and doesn't answer emails regarding this issue (or any other issue for that matter)

4) Less than a month after reactivating the site it is suspended.

Again, what was the point?

An ads only site that runs only ads that were already in the system while refusing to run current upgrade ads or approve rotator view urls or reopen the redemption page is totally POINTLESS.

Reactivating a site that gets suspended (probably for non-payment of hosting) less than a month later is beyond pointless and approaches extremely intelligence-challenged behavior.

Alert Pay is Making it Up As They Go Along

Thank you for contacting AlertPay. My name is Alex and I am happy to assist you.
We do apologize for the confusion however since the creation of your AlertPay account associated to edited, you have received a total of $2,053.69 USD. As stated on our website, Personal Starter accounts can receive funds for free, up to a limit of $400.00 USD/month or $2000.00 USD/lifetime. Once these limits are reached, the member will automatically be upgraded to a Personal Pro account.  

Please see our Fees page at https://www.alertpay.com/en/fees.aspx for more information.

Thank you for your understanding.
It says 2000 PER YEAR on the site, no mention of lifetime.

Below copied and pasted from the Alert Pay site itself, for the starter account..

  • Shop securely online
  • Send/Receive funds for free
  • Monthly receiving limit of $400 *
  • Cumulative yearly receiving limit of $2000 *
  • Use credit card for payments
Not one mention of LIFETIME.

Alert Pay: Starting Down The Slippery E-gold Slope?

Alert Pay appears to have changed my account type without my knowledge, without my permission, and without informing me. 

Is this a sign of things to come? 

Are they starting on the slippery e-gold slope?

I have not exceeded the receiving limit for my original type of account ($400.00 per month or $2000.00 per year) as my total payments received from January 2010 to July 20, 2010 are $552.73 (average of less than $ 80.00 per month, the highest month was January with $127.90 with the lowest month being June with $36.46)

Already Canadian banks refuse to do business with Alert Pay (which is headquartered in Canada).

Sneaking around and changing account types solely to benefit themselves (the new account type charges fees while the old one didn't) is a good (or bad) first step towards USA banks following the lead of their Canadian counterparts.

Personally, I am changing everything to PayPal.  If I have to pay fees anyway, PayPal is preferable for many reasons. 

1) Most program owners have a much easier time funding their PayPal accounts (especially those living in Canada, as they aren't even allowed to upload funds to their Alert Pay accounts) which means members generally get paid faster. 

2) Alert Pay charges me 50 cents to transfer my funds to my bank account, whereas with PayPal it is free.

3) PayPal at least has the common courtesy to notify you when they change your account for whatever reason

Its not the fees that bother me as much as the sneakiness.

Who Has Paid Me in July 2010

$25.00  Starbucks gift card --Reward Port
$5.71    1 Cent Mail
$2.22    Showcase PTR
$6.07    St Cash Unlimited

$1.35    Dance Mails

Stephen Hauser Must Be Blind or Stupid or Both

Yet another email this morning from the (only in his own teeny weeny itsy bitsy mind) hot shit internet marketer this morning, to an email address he shouldn't even have access to.

So I decided the direct approach was called for, since blog posts, website, and reporting him to Facebook and MDA have done no good at all.

My reply to his latest fecal material:

http://stephenhauserstopstalkingme.info/

You think it might be time--after 3 1/2 months of your harrassment--to report you to the FBI and my local police force?  If you take that as a threat, good, because it is.

Remove my email addresses from your address book, because one more email from you via ANY site and you will be reported for harassment, cyberstalking, and spamming.  A hot shit internet marketer like yourself should know better than to send unsolicited commercial emails!"

Then I went to Hover Spot and posted another blog entry about the dear hot shit (only in his own mind) internet marketer who doesn't even understand the definition of SPAM (and I don't mean that crap in the can either!!)

http://www.hoverspot.com/blog.php?userId=2326553

So feel free to spam me again, Stephen or Mark or whatever name you choose to use today.

However, the next time you spam me from any email address using any name, there will be consequences and they will be way more severe than a few blog posts and a website.

I have already reported to you to Facebook and MDA.

I will report you to my local police force and the FBI.

And then I will be happy to drop you and your alter ego Mark in the crap with Yahoo (some of your emails came from a Yahoo address), GDI, Linkedin, Flixster, Swom, Hover Spot, and any other affiliate or ISP you are associated with.

Is the pleasure your sick little mind gets from harassing stalking spamming me worth losing ALL your affiliate accounts?

Its pretty hard to be a hot shit internet marketer if no affiliate program will allow you to join because you are blacklisted everywhere for spamming harassing and stalking people, isn't it now?

Its pretty hard to even get online if your various email addresses are all deactivated because your ISP or email provider doesn't approve of spamming harassing and stalking people isn't it now?

Your choice.  What's more important: stalking me or keeping your online life going? Think about it.

Maybe Edited Should Get FREE Remedial Reading Lessons?

link removed (see quoted email message below for reason)

But when you go to check it out and request your free bikini bra, you find out the offer is limited to Ocean Drive Magazine readers in Miami, Florida ONLY.

That's a very limited offer and should have said on the Edited site that it was limited not only to Miami, Florida but to readers of a certain magazine in Miami, Florida.

Even the name of the site in question has to be removed from the post? I guess so because I got yet another email (quoted below with name of site edited out) today 5/27/2013 with the same old BS, after I'd already removed the link and the picture.

Triond Blues

 So I submitted two ads for the Triond article about glassware at two of the PTR sites I belong to

Having seen Lucas Die's work being heavily promoted at both Realm of Karma and My PTR, the assumption on my part was that PTR traffic was acceptable and that I would actually get some views of the work. HA HA!!

Lucas's ads at Realm of Karma are email ads with no timer.

Lucas's ads at My PTR are PTC with a 1 second timer.

I mentioned at Anything Goes in comments when submitting the ad that it was a framebreaker, my assumption was that Tony would set it up with no timer.

My article has received a total of 3 views, all from this very blog.

What I find most frustrating is that there were 37 clicks on the PTC that was submitted at ShowCase PTR and 46 clicks on the PTC that was submitted at Anything Goes, but not one view out of 83 clicks registered at Triond.

The fact that the article is a framebreaker should have nothing to do with views registering at Triond.

And if repeat views are the issue then why are Lucas's articles clickable at Realm of Karma and My PTR every 24 hours?

And obviously Realm of Karma and My PTR are doing something different with the ads submitted by Lucas Die, since he wouldn't return for more advertising if he wasn't getting views (and earnings) from the ads.

Stephen Hauser Revisited --AGAIN.

http://stephenhauserstopstalkingme.info/list.html
http://suellenjillroley.blogspot.com/2010/04/stephen-hauser-revisited.html
http://suellenjillroley.blogspot.com/2010/03/stephen-hauser-facebook-and-me.html
http://stephenhauserstopstalkingme.info/index.html
 
I find Stephen Hauser's latest spam to be despicable; using Jerry's Kids to spam someone not just once but four times (in one day)  is totally appalling behavior even from this creep.

I received the exact same email twice at my Yahoo address and twice at my Gmail address.

Stephen or Mark or whatever he's calling himself these days should have NO access to either email address.

And I think its beyond tacky to expect someone who he's stalked, spammed, and harassed for 4 months now to donate to MDA to free him.

I'd sooner have him thrown in jail --for real-- with the key thrown away, even if I could afford to  make a donation. 
"I'm excited to tell you that I have chosen to serve as an MDA Jailbird and am being Locked-Up...that's right, I'm going behind bars to help Jerry's Kids. In order to be released on good behavior, I need your help to raise my “bail.”

My bail has been set at $3,000.00 and if everyone I know makes a tax-deductible donation, I’ll reach my goal quickly!

Just click here to make a secure, online donation before 08/18/10. This is a fun event benefiting individuals and families served by MDA who are affected by neuromuscular disease. I am honored to partner with MDA, and help this important cause. 

Don't hesitate to call or e-mail me with any questions. 

Thanks in advance for your help. Together we'll make a difference! 

Mark 

P.S. I'm counting on you, click here to donate. 
Funny how STEPHEN changed his name to MARK isn't it? Does he really think that it escaped my attention that he has more aliases than your average bank robber?

In Praise of AARP

AARP = American Association of Retired People

I recently joined AARP because my father's subscription/membership was expiring this month (he passed away in December 2007) and I really really like their magazine.

Membership includes the magazine a newsletter and numerous discounts

http://www.aarp.org/benefits-discounts/

I joined AARP through Inbox Dollars.  The cost for one year was $16.00 and I will be getting $6.00 back from Inbox Dollars.

The really great thing though is that I renewed my homeowners insurance today.

Being an AARP member saved me $117.00 in premiums for the exact same coverage.  In less than 2 weeks, I've saved a lot more than the membership cost me even without the $6.00 from Inbox Dollars.

If you are over 50 and live in the USA--you don't have to be retired either--I strongly recommend checking out AARP
