Is AdBrite a scam?

    I ask this in the Google forum because I know a lot of us use it to trump Google's eCPM. I've suspected for a while (since seeing that this sketchy 'play video' ad of a hot girl in the best ad spot on my site was apparently not getting any clicks) that their reporting was not accurate. I had my brother who lives across the country click it a few times to see if it would register with them, and sure enough.. no. AdBrite is telling me I've had 1 click in the 3 weeks I've been with them, when I now know for a fact that there have been more. What's the deal?

    I got one of there scam checks for 300 bucks, they pay like clock work. I think adbrite is a good company to work with.

    Adbrite updates slow ( around 4 Hours )
    You can make better with Adbrite than Adsense.

    So... a good company that lies about clicks? Cool sounds like a company I want to work with.

    Many people are using Adbrite ads in theirs sites and they are getting paid without any problems. I think adbrite is a legit company.

    Well the fact that they're not tracking clicks on my site and the fact that there are a couple other issues listed in the similar threads below leads me to think I'm onto something.
