Has Anyone Tried MadAdsMedia.com

Exactly...

I've been doing the same thing for the past 4/5 months.. nothing has changed.. i was paid twice a $500 and a $700..

So why did they suddenly think ooo lets ban this guy.. with his $9,000 outstanding payments.

its ridiculous.. but I'm not giving up easily.
this isn't the first time I've been scammed by a network and sure isn't going to be the last.

 

We were waiting for this to appear on this forum. Our response is not only to OiMr, but to all publishers and potential publishers. OiMr began working with us several months ago, applying with a single site. Not only did he fail to inform us that this site was in fact a plugin, but OiMr was running our ads on unapproved sites. Unfortunately, this was not discovered until very recently. Not only were our ads being served on unapproved sites, they were being served on adult sites containing pornographic content. Had we known this from the beginning, OiMr would not have earned a dime from us. For anyone who's interested, here is a sample of the list of porn url's: http://screencast.com/t/wnakxTFnVH
MadAds Media takes its Terms of Service extremely seriously. If you violate these Terms, your account will be disabled and all earnings withheld.
This is a blatant violation of not only our ToS, but that of our advertisers as well. We have a zero tolerance policy for anything related to adult content. We run a clean network and we work very hard to keep it that way. When we informed OiMr of the situation via email, this was his response:

"...since you mentioned I have just checked my script and noticed a malfunction in the adult site detection and now going to attempt a repair hoping it doesn't happen again..."

I have excluded his name in respect to the anonymity of this forum. Not only did OiMr admit to running our ads on unauthorized sites, he also admitted that our ads appeared on adult sites. We made a promise to our advertisers that our ads would never be displayed next to adult content. This is what allows us to pay our publishers high CPMs.

In the end, let's make one thing clear: serve your ads on approved url's, serve it next to clean content, and you have nothing to worry about.

 

Please post a Link to the terms of service that are located on your website. Cause I can't find it anywhere.

 

To anyone else who's interested, our Terms of Service are visible to those who sign up with us as publisher. Nevertheless:

I did say "if" you were accepted to show in browser extensions lol

If what Pat says is true you have no complaint OiMr.

 

I'll be honest Pat I can see them from your link but have no way of finding them via a link on the site when signed in.

 

LOL Hidden terms.. so pat can pocket some extra $$$ when they get broken unknowingly.

 

@GregWR
Upon registering and signing up with us, everyone must agree to our ToS. We've made it easier for you by including it at the footer.

@OiMr
Not only is it in our Terms, it is common knowledge in this industry that ads cannot be served on sites containing pornographic content. This is consistent with all (non-adult) ad networks...Google, ValueClick, Tribal Fusion. MadAds Media is no exception. Not only were you running our ads on unapproved sites AND adult sites, you were not approved as a plugin.

 

Can I ask you an honest question Pat...is Mad Ads a one man operation?

 

Yeah when they ban someone they don't repay the advertisers pat will pocket the money himself.

and they/he obviously don't have time to answer the phone since a group of us have been trying for the past week.

 

Listen I am in no way defending you, I said if they knew the situation when you were accepted you should have been paid, it's became clear they didn't, even without seeing T&C's common sense would have told you not to do what you done.

 

@GregWR By no means are we a one man operations. We work with over 4,000 websites. As the business development manager, I am the primary contact for publishers.

 

Right cool, it was just you who spoke to me when I signed up then it was you on here, just made me wonder.

 

Madadsmedia is a scam and Google will know that soon enough.
since most networks rely on forums & google



I Worked hard to earn the dollars but I'm obviously not going to be paid so I'm just going to leave it at rest.




I'm out Peace.

Good luck in future everybody.

 

well.. everyone knows that when a network says that we don't accept adult sites then why the hell someone places the ads on an adult site.
@OiMr you are lucky that you got some payouts, they could have banned you at first try, but you were lucky that they caught you late.

I'm 100% agreeing with pat.Madadsmedia

 

You "worked hard"??? Worked hard to do what? To cheat MadAdsMedia, to broke their rules in multiple ways, putting their ads 1. in unapproved sites, 2. in a browser plugin, 3. in adult sites! So that was your hard work, cheating them; and unfortunately they didn't saw from the beginnings that you are a cheater, so they paid you a few more times for your illegal activity! It means you have stolen their money from the beginnings, right? And now, when they stopped you to steal their money anymore, you are posting over and over again about they are scam, right???

 

If anyone's made and been paid $x,xxx please make a posting, just to put us at ease!

 

Allowing him run for 4 months are hard to believe without knowing his activities.

And when he reached $5k, then.... banned!

There's really something fishy on here. If he make only $500, I know his account are still alive today.

 

Many of my users report about bad ads (popup, float ads)

 

@charice.preston We did not "allow" him to run our ads knowingly in this manner. As I stated above, we regret taking him on as a publisher, as we had paid him for several months already. His plugin put us (and our advertisers) in a very tough spot; we are fortunate we caught this when we did. When something this serious happens, it affects all parties involved, including MadAds Media.
We have an excellent system designed to track and determine where our ads are being served. Nevertheless, no system is perfect. Anyone can deceive us--for awhile. Anyone can register with a legitimate-looking site and run our ads in a malicious manner--for awhile. But make no mistake, if our ads are served in such a manner as this, we will find out eventually. Had we actually been informed this was a plugin, this unfortunate situation could have been avoided.
Publishers who run our ads the proper way have nothing to worry about.
