MaxBounty terminated for fraud.

    My account got terminated for fraud today with around $200. No, I'm not like all the other idiots who say "Oh no! MaxBounty is a scam - I didn't do anything wrong!". MaxBounty is an amazing company, and I respect them, but I screwed up by completing some of my own offers with a VPN and I will acknowledge wrong doing on my part.


    Now my question is, on their FAQS it says you can appeal a termination by accepting fault. Does MaxBounty usually forgive publishers and would I possibly have a chance to appeal as long as I promise to abide by the TOS next time?

    Thanks.

    You're just wasting time for self completing offers, they probably wont let you in again.

    If you've done nothing wrong then appeal, if you have done something against their TOS it serves you right.

    sorry to see your account terminated

    but maxbounty seems have no other choice,
    they have to do something to protect themselves to keep being a trustful company
    to the affiliates, and the advertiser as well

    I just sent her a IM, but she went offline.
