Banned with 10k$ comissions in balance

    :mad:
    I can't belive that i have been banned from CJ.com after 4 years of working with them and i lost 10$k in my account as last month comision although i only use Adword to get traffic

    cj send me this e-mail


    Commission Junction has removed your Publisher account from the Commission Junction Network, transactions may be reversed ("charged-back"), and any attempt to rejoin the Commission Junction Network shall be null and void. This removal is the result of an investigation that found your traffic originating from IP addresses associated comment spammers. Please be advised tha this activity violates the Commission Junction Publisher Service Agreement you agreed to follow.

    In Jan they asked me about my promotion method and said the same sentense "traffic originating from IP addresses associated comment spammers"

    i told them the truth and i just use Adword, they close the case and send me payment in Jan and Feb, which mean that they know that i don't spamm

    and in March the merchant approved my comission for Feb but i surbrised with this message,

    I don't know what to do, it is a huge loss as i invested about 5k$ in adword, i i tried to contact them by mail 3 times and no answer

    I'm surprised that you keep so much money with a website after spending so much. If I was in your place, I'd have taken out large parts of my money per month.

    That is bad, but I'm sure that if you make $10.000 a month you (should) have a dedicated representative. Give him/her a call and explain again.

    Make them a call. You earn so much, you must be an important customer to them.

    You can't withdraw the money, it doesn't work like that, CJ pays on a monthly basic automatically.

    This is very distributing news, I am currently working with CJ full time here, hopefully this don't happen to me. Anyway, like that guy said above, if you making 10k per month, you should just hire a lawyer or something.

    I think you should try to speak to them on the phone first and try to show them as much info, like your adwords account screen shot.

    Contact them by phone.
    May be if they have banned you will pay the amount pending in your account.
    DO not think that they have forefeited your amount, may be they make the payment.

    First of all, please have a talk with them.

    I bet $100 this guy was doing something besides Adwords. CJ doesn't kill a quality publisher just because they feel like it. This guy was obviously spamming them.

    Switch to another affiliate network like NeverblueAds, Azoogle, Clickbooth, ClickXchange, RocketProfit, etc... and make your money back. It's really unfortunate that this happened, but just like getting banned from Google, once you're banned, you're gone for good. It's just a matter of picking up the pieces and moving on now:) Best of luck to you! Sorry for the unfortunate event:(

    Hey, if you invested on google adwords, then why will be the traffic spam, that means, is the google sending all spam traffic.

    Thats what your meaning saying.

    I am using google since long time.

    did you put the affiliate links directly under google adwords? I think that violates tos.
