My account shrunk?

[berthabutt]

  This morning I had over $25 in my account and now it is $9.85.   What happened?   I don't even do any big $  or credit card offers that could be reversed?  But my account is missing about $16 all of a sudden??  Has anyone else in here had that happen?

[Oryon20]

Sounds like you had credits expire, credits revoked, or referral bonuses revoked/denied.  If you go to your account page and scroll through your credit history list, you should see what happened.  If credits expired, remember you have 180 days once they post to your account to include them in a cashout request.

[berthabutt]

None of my credits are anywhere close to expiring and I've never had referrals on FC.  But I went back to my account and it shows all of my Approved RadioLoyalty  credits after july 1 , were suddenly denied some time today?    I put in a support ticket, but at the time it did not occur to me it was RadioLoyalty? 

[Oryon20]

I cannot explain why all your RadioLoyalty credits were suddenly denied.  You should get an answer from the support team soon.  You're not the only one who saw this happen today.  Someone else also posted about losing RadioLoyalty credits earlier: http://www.fusioncash.net/forum.php?topic=56411.msg769617#msg769617

  Yeah 'Oryon20' I also read that other post about getting their RadioLoyalty denied... Ya know what I think it might be; That people are turning on the radio then opening/putting it in "another window" and doing that about 4 or 5 times, then you can collect on each "window" every 10 mins. (like ya do normally), this has been what I've thought every-time I see someone on the "What have you earned today" thread with about 35 to 50 RadioLoyalty credits...Heck I've seen over 100 (that's like 17 hours straight).
Now I've gone and given others this idea...BUT... If that's what they do/did I'm kinda glad they got caught (for-want-of better-words I say it's cheating)... Hopefully those who have had their [RadioLoyalty] credits revoked will submit a ticket to FC... THEN... Inform all of us (members) the reason WHY

All I know is I have a TON of them and none were denied. But I don't cheat either/

[msmoneybags48]

My credits from Radio Loyalty have never been denied.  I use it less now, but I do it to get a few extra credits.  I hope your problem be resolved soon.

If someone ever finds out the reason for this I really hope they post it, because now I'm curious!  I listen to RadioLoyalty off and on throughout the day so a large part of my earnings are from it.  I've never had any RL credits revoked (but then again, like Old Buddy said, I don't cheat) but I'm wondering if this is something I should be concerned about in the future.

A very small number of users who were abusing the system had their credits revoked by RL, and were also banned from participating.  It's also no longer possible to earn more than 1c/10min, i.e. the vulnerability is closed.  As always, if an advertiser can prove fraud and refuses to pay, we pass along the denial.  Everyone who didn't cheat (99.9%+ of you) still has their credit.

[Oryon20]

Based on the Administrator's response, it sounds like jsmith96's theory could very well have been the vulnerability.  Good to see that the vulnerability has been fixed and the cheaters caught.  These are the type of people who ruin it for everyone else, and possibly have negative effects on future offers and payouts by the advertisers, because of their cheating.

i just dont get why people try to cheat the system.  We are lucky that they just didnt decided to pull the offer all together due to the misuse.

[dagarza22]

Oh wow when I first read the top posts I was afraid radio loyalty wouldn't be offered anymore.  Obviously that would have been a shame for some of us because it help us create extra income.  But the fact that people are trying cheat isn't right.

There is no reason to try and cheat the system like this.  If enough people do this, then Radio Loyalty will no longer be available for us to use.

[berthabutt]

I was not abusing the system, and I was not cheating, and I never made more than 1c per 10 minutes?  Sounds like RadioLoyalty has some issues, and they want to cheat honest listeners!
