    Hello there, My name is Helen Gallone, and June last year i found out about Cpalead, i thought oh, well this seems ok, it was my first ever bit of internet marketing i have ever done, and i made over £80 in my first night, so my first presumes was.. SCAM!

    Anyway, i got my first payment, i had to beg for an early payment because they wouldn't give me one due to a new account. So anyway they sent it and i got it via paypal.

    So i thought, Hmm.. Im going to get into this a bit more, so i did, i purchased several scripts, i put them to use and make a couple of thousand dollars.

    Then, After over $25,000 dollars paid out to me, i started to build a real good confidence with Cpalead, i trusted them, i talked about them. I lived and breathed Cpalead for the time i was with it.

    Anyway, a month before christmas i bought a new script, this one cost me $50 and the effects were ENORMOUS, In my first day of the new script i made $1200, the second day, $3000 and everyday from that was $500+, so cpalead give me weekly payments, instead of being paid every month, i was paid every week.

    And before long, my balance built up to $25,761.09, within a week.


    [​IMG]



    So, it came to payday, and i asked for my payment, I was told that the head of security, John Bailey wanted to speak with me regarding my account.

    So, nearly $26K at stake, i contacted him, he told me that over 50 people had filed reports against me because i so called "Hacked their Facebook" i told him this was complete rubbish and i wanted to see the evidence.

    This is when he refused to show me a single report out of an alleged 50.

    So, we made a deal, If i continue to make continuous cash, And i provide him with my birth certificate, he will release my payment.

    Of course, this was weird, but i went along with it because it's alot of money at stake.

    So, after travelling to Scotland, (Over 120 miles from where i was) I got my birth certificate, i told him, i scanned it along with some bills he asked for, Yet he said, this is not enough evidence. WHAT ALOAD OF B***HIT, He told me to get that i would get my payment.

    His Excuse? I didn't make enough money. He wanted me to make $10,000 until i can get my $25,000, and then HE WOULD TAKE HALF OF THE $25,000 , so im only left with $12,750.

    What a complete rip off. Anyway he wanted a passport within 3 days. But this was impossible, because i didnt have the money for a passport, and they take a minimum of 6 weeks in the U.K, and he tried to tell me different considering he lives in Las Vegas.

    Anyway, my CPalead account was suspended for the exact reason of "Hello Helen
    We regret to inform you that your CPAlead account has been terminated due to the following reason(s):

    Failure to provide proper and legal identification.

    If you feel we have wrongfully terminated your account, please contact appeals@cpalead.com and be sure to include your publisher ID #50752 in the body of the email."

    Weird huh, in this screenshot [​IMG] he tells me that the birth certificate i scanned him would be enough evidence?

    NOTE: I WAS SPEAKING TO HIM FROM MY SONS EMAIL ADDRESS BECAUSE I WAS LOCKED OUT OF MINE.

    So, Basically, He suspended my payments, for a reason he could not give evidence of proof, then asked for redicilous amounts of ID, I told him i would get them, but he gave me an impossible time line, He then made a deal with me, and broke it, And then he later told me that my account is suspended. For not getting ID, When i clearly sent him the ID he wanted.

    Bottom line? CPAlead are going down hill, they paid me $25,000 and scammed me from $25,000. I was banned with no proof, evidence or proper reason. CPAlead shall not be trusted, and the owner wouldn't even reply to any emails i sent him..



    Should i go to the LAW with this? Do i have a good case? Im not the only one.

    Many people are reporting that they are scammed by cpalead.... maybe they are greedy sob's ? well probably the best way to go is stay unders the radar, like 5k a month? then join 4 other networks and get 5k from them all, so you will still end up doing 25k but staying under the radar

    For quite a while CPALead was completely legitimate in paying out on time every time. I started noticing only pretty recently people complaining getting scammed for large amounts and not getting paid out but I continued working with them. Well, I ended up being owed $24,000 when my account was suspended. Talking with their useless head of security got me nowhere. I have hired a lawyer and he has been building a case for the last month against them and says I will be able to sue them for quite a large some of money. I have been telling other people who have been scammed by them to do the same. They have it coming to them in the coming months.

    If this is all true, then go for it and sue them, hopefully they will settle out of court and give you a huge sum. Don't however let the lawyer be the next one to take your cash and get you nothing in return. Watch your back with lawyers you have to pay up front. If they are sure they can get you your money and more then make them work for a percentage and dont pay anything up front.

    you were probably doing something blackhat and got caught, i mean that really sucks it was $25,000 but you probably shouldn't have been doing whatever it was that got you caught.. every person that has claimed to been scammed by cpa lead ends up being exposed by their staff as a blackhatter anyways so honestly take what this guy says with a grain of salt

    But why they are catching after accumulating $12,000 or $25,700? That's really fishy. In fact not fishy, pure scamming.

    Read first post "Hello there, My name is Helen Gallone" and "my balance built up to $25,761.09, within a week."


    I think Helen is female name.
