@Jenny: You can check out the lengthy reply they’ve left here and decide whether it’s something you want to trust or not :)

@lauritsen: I appreciate your reply and I think you can understand that when something like what happened occurs people are going to take it very seriously. The best information anyone had at the time was from Paypal (a company most have grown to trust). That information was the account being used to pay bloggers was fraudulent, so bloggers did what they should do, they alerted their peers. I hope things now truly are cleared up with your company and Paypal, but I won’t be continuing with your service at this time. I’d rather use a wait and see approach for now. I’m sure you can understand that.

That’s insane. BW didn’t look like it could be trusted to begin with. I’m glad I never did anything with them.

Furthermore everybody where paypal have reverted the payment have received their payment by now. And that is FROM THE SAME PAYPAL ACCOUNT: payment@bloggerwave.com – this should prove me point.

All this is due to a mistake from paypal. I we at bloggerwave hope that you will all continue working with us.

I hope you will respond to this messageâ€¦..

You’re welcome Christy :)

I only did just one opp with them to see if they’d actually pay. I was pretty skeptical from the start. I also went in and changed all my info.

Which other services beyond PayPerPost do you use that you’ve found to be trustworthy? So far I’ve just been paid through PPP and Smorty.

Thanks for the link love Mike, and thanks for giving me the heads up on the Bloggerwave scandal. I don’t care that I might never get my $46 but I do care about them stealing my freakin’ personal information. In the hopes it’s not too late I went in and messed up my profile. Yikes!!!!

I thought they looked trustworthy, I didn’t mind their system, I can’t believe they are turning out to be frauds!!
