    Okay, I was with CJ for 1 and a half month now, I made well over 200 bucks last month and i should be paid for it. I have $204 in Publisher payment/Current Balance. Okay, so i was expecting my check coming in soon. I checked my mail everyday, untill i got pissed and I emailed them if they send my check. This is what they said
    "Hello David,

    You should have received the following email on 5/18/12

    Dear David,

    Your beneficiary name is similar to a name on a Government Sanctions list. We will need the following additional information to continue to process your payments:

    Complete name:
    Date of Birth:
    Passport number and ID issuing country:
    Nationality:

    Please provide us with the following information as soon as possible.

    Thank You,
    Ursula Meier
    Publisher Payables Representative

    Please update this incident with the requested information. Thank you."

    I checked everywhere on the CJ.com account, and it didin't say anything about needing my Passport Number, and ID issuing country. I emailed them, and they haven't answered. Also i Live in Toronto, Canada. And I am underaged if that matters.

    That sounds strange. I would double-check the authenticity of the email to make sure it's really from CJ. Otherwise, give them a chance to respond to your email. One thing to consider, CJ can be very shady. If your revenue drops below a certain amount per month, CJ will deduct $$ from your account each month until you hit zero and then close your account. What other affiliate program actually deducts money from your account and closes you out like that? I guess they have enough big clients that they don't care much for the smaller guys, but like I said, a shady company.

    I've read stuff about CJ and this type of issue one of the reasons why I don't use it.
