I had a hunch it had something to do with online poker/casino payments.

In the meantime ... is there a list of sponsors who use Webmaster Checks .. might be helpful ... just to monitor the situation.

Not sure this is accurate or legit in anyway. Just caught it while surfing.

Thanks ... it's a start ...

We have 10 grand (and more coming) from them sitting here on my desk. So, Webmaster Checks, where are we with this situation? If my memory serves me right you said you were going to talk with an agent this Monday. What's up with that now?

I get checks from them as well and some of us depend on it to pay bills. Especially since my knee injury. When can I expect my check? When is it safe to cash it once I get it? Hello? Anyone out there? Geez.

Would love to know whats going on!

your money is gone... congrats to the winners!

any news???(

any updates to this? I also noticed that bigtitcreampies are no longer on the Brazzers network, are they just cycling sites or was it related to this?

Jack

Ouch! This is surely killing some of your pocketbooks... :(

Not sure about the rest of the world but in Canada it is quite simple ,
and infact if you are CND based company big/small you should be
doing your own payouts unless you are using ccbill . There
are lots of options and easy as pie been doing this on my own since 05 :winkwink:

wheres my monies yo

Just thought I would post the list of sponsors known to use WebmasterChecks. I can't guarantee the list is complete, I try to keep it as accurate as possible, but if anyone knows of any more, feel free to let me know.

I call bullshit on the whole thread. What proof do you have that your account was froze by feds. I want my money.

checks were returned, that's how this whole situation got public attention.

why not talk to the sponsors where the checks are from, i think most of them are issuing new checks for people

they sent out a statement

Let me first say that I am very pleased to announce this news we just found out.

All Webmasterchecks? accounts are being reactivated by the Department of Justice and our business is resuming normal operations. Any checks that were issued from our US Bank account will be able to be cashed and clear immediately. Our Bank of America account is moving more slowly and should be fully reactivated by tomorrow. Please have your affiliate?s hold Bank of America checks until we send out the confirmation that all is clear.

We would like to give you some background into our situation. When we started researching doing this type of business in 2003-2004, before launching in 2005, we discovered there were not any similar types of businesses that did what we do. Looking further into it, we discovered that many had been turned off by the government for sending out gambling payments or acting without compliance to important anti-money laundering rules, or because they had issues managing their funds and became insolvent.

Knowing this, while building Webmasterchecks, we formed extensive due-diligence procedures to comply with the Patriot Act, Bank Secrecy Act, Anti-Money Laundering laws, Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), Know-Your-Customer, UIGEA (gambling), registered with the Treasury Departments Financial Crimes Enforcement Unit, and took many other precautions. To give you an idea, an AML/BSA Risk Assessment typically runs 70k+, not to mention the Independent Audits and so forth.

During our business continuity audits, we had never expected our bank accounts to be frozen with no previous notification to us or our attorneys. To help prevent this from happening again in the future, our attorneys are proactively in the process of contacting all government agencies that have the authority to do these types of freezes, indicating our willingness to cooperate fully and establishing a relationship so that they can contact us directly in the future if any questions arise.

As stewards of our clients funds, we take these matters very seriously. We hired the right attorney, retained attorneys at a large Washington DC firm including a former assistant US Attorney General and general council to the Department of Homeland Security and got the matter resolved as quickly as possible.

In the next several days we will be providing you with a letter from our banks indicating that we are in good standing, a letter from our attorney with an explanation of what happened, and our attorney is meeting with the Assistant Attorney General of Maryland in the next several days to request a letter of explanation of what occurred, as well as a statement that they have found that we have not acted improperly in any way, and we will pass this over as well.

Webmasterchecks is moving forward. We understand the government has an important role in regulating all banking activity and we will continue to comply with all of the best practices established.

We look forward to resuming all operations and thank everyone for their patience while we resolve this matter fully.

good luck w/ that mate

who's gonna pay all the bounce fees ? BP ?

what's the update on that?
contacted a couple sponsors about checks i have been holding, no reply so far
needless to say that i wont be promoting those anymore
this is BS

Many programs have already switched over to new services. I wonder if they will return back.

So can we cash our old Webmaster Checks from a Bank of America account yet?

Has anyone had success?

Good question...

Update for the interested. Been calling WMC 3 - 4 times a day, for 4 days.
No phone replies, no ICQ replies, no email replies...

Which services?

That sounds bad! Would really like an update on the issue.

And here it comes -

To me this looks like if you get paid by any sponsor, from Webmasterchecks, best make sure your lawyer/accountant is paid up and ready for work, cause you may have some explaining to do.

Where did this come from? Email?

The one sponsor that I had a bounced check on has switched over to ipayaffiliates, or something like that. Received my first check from them at the beginning of the month.

Looks like they only accept US companies. Anyone know any others?

I'm pretty sure that the sponsor who paid me via them is not US based.

Other than that, I am not aware of any companies, but if I hear of any, I will let you know. :)

Any news about WMC?

No. I think you can pretty much stick a fork in em... They are done.

I just got a bunch of webmasterchecks today from dieselaction.. if its still closed why are they still sending checks?

Suggest to your Affiliate program managers (or payments dept) they get in contact with me asap, we issue checks all over the world, and have been doing so for years. I'll give 'em a quote and get 'em up and running in no time. Thats in USD$ and other currencies too (for companies the world over). Checks spelt with xx instead of the cks in our name ;-)

Cheers

glad to hear :winkwink:

So nothing new about this and payments issued?

wow. sure are a bunch of complacent motherfuckers up in here...

bump for you sir

I don't understand why you have their money at all? Why can't someone just hire you to write the checks on THE SPONSORS bank account and send that out?

A little bump for Brian - http://www.chexxinc.com

Classy bump there, sport.

any news?

still waiting for news on this

I received a webmaster checks wire last week, expecting another one early next week

I doubt that... seriously. When an account is closed.. it's closed. How the hell do you "re-activate" an account -ESPECIALLY B of A.

Chrissy from webmasterchecks.com is not replying this week. All this situation is rather strange. So what are the alternatives that can work with EU companies?

if any webmasters want to setup some solid deals and get paid on time and properly

Im here ready to rock... custom setups/solid paysites/custom tours...

You name it you got it!

Shameless spam but needed here... I hate seeing webmasters without their hard earning money

scam of the century unfolding
