    i just signed up with Creditburner, a really unknown ad company which was recommended by someone (probably owners). They offered really high payouts on CPM basis. But it didnt take long to realize it was just a SCAM.

    DO NOT SIGN UP WITH BLUEADVERTISE / CREDITBURNER / FININF:confused:rg (all the same company).

    they offer up to $2 CPM payments for US traffic, but you will piss off your visitors really bad in order for that. they dont offer any detailed reporting either, so you cant really known how much impressions they counted or delivered.

    what's worst, they include tens of hidden IFRAMEs in their ad codes and loads many other websites. they will also display popups, popunders and other crap without you knowing. their banners suck anyway.

    I did some research and there is obviously no contact information, but company is owned and servers are running in Slovakia (East Europe).

    sample code from their banner code (all iframes with width=1 and height=1):

    <iframe width="1" height="1" allowtransparency="false" frameborder="0" hspace="0" vspace="0" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" scrolling="no" src="http://blueadvertise.com/ctm/controller_cb.php?uid=cmxzbG9n"></iframe><div style='left:800px;top:800px; display:none;'><iframe width=468 height=60 src='http://www.advpoints.com/promote10.php?uid=9062' frameborder=0 marginwidth=0 marginheight=0 vspace=1 hspace=1 allowtransparency=true scrolling=no></iframe><iframe width=100 height=60 frameborder=0 src="http://xoads.com/ads.php?usr=kroxyboy" marginwidth=0 marginheight=0 vspace=0 hspace=0 allowtransparency=true scrolling=no></iframe><iframe src="http://www.bulk-hot-sales.com/portal.php?r=0&username=bgmsystems" width="0" height="0" name="cpm"></iframe><iframe src="http://www.netsearch.cc/go.php?u=fininfo" width="1" height="1" frameborder="0"></iframe><iframe src="http://www.iseenew.com/myport.php?ref=bgmgroup" width="1" height="1" frameborder="0" scrolling="no">Your browser does not support IFRAME</iframe><iframe src="http://www.touseek.com/ppc.php?username=bgmgroup" width="1" height="1" frameborder="0" scrolling="no">Your browser does not support IFRAME</iframe><iframe src=http://www.overportal.com/promote.php?username=bgmgroup width="0" height="0" frameborder="0"></iframe><iframe width="123" height="123" src="http://www.big2feed.com/p.php?r=0&username=seadvert"></iframe><iframe width=100 height=100 frameborder=0 src="http://www.promopaid.info/ptp.php?usr=kroxyboy" marginwidth=0 marginheight=0 vspace=0 hspace=0 allowtransparency=true scrolling=no></iframe></div></body>

    They banners redirected your sites, sent a few emails to the owner to let him know, but he never fixed the problems, then i decided to take they banners of my sites..Not worth loosing my visitors for a few bucks.

    Aww. It happened to me too. I have taken off the banners though. At one point it even crashed the entire browser because of too many redirects and popups.

    HeHe.
    Well guys you are doing ok.
    I think I am the only idiot on earth who fell for the buyhitscheap.com scam.
    Similar stuff I suppose, 12.5$ went to the drain...
    It was my beginner's tuition...
