It's better than nothing but you could limit the USA callers to one or two calls per day, that way to do fraud they would have to have a lot of phone lines and spread across several accounts.
Just throwing out a random idea.

Perhaps seakazoo is referring to the 5 phone number limit per account? If there was no limit, then the amount of fake accounts would be kept to a minimum as they would just use the same account.
Maybe, but it would cause even more numbers to get wasted because users just love to click repeatedly on "Assign me a new number" for no reason. Either way, I think it's the wrong approach. Maybe some kind of call-back system to verify each new account ... and no to-be-called-back-number can exist more than once in the database ... but the determined fraudster takes even this little obstacle. Oh well...

Idk, maybe not allowing up to 5 phone numbers per account to call would cut down "non-human/multiple fake listeners".
I'm afraid that won't help. This would just result in even more fake accounts getting registered. I've blocked many fake accounts manually since we added the USA in September. It's just not worth the time.

Sounds like YOU guys are the scammers and fraudsters. I was close to payout and spent a lot of time there, and this is how you reward your userbase.
"Sorry guys, a couple of people fucked up so we are just going to keep your money too."
"Sorry guys, a couple of people fucked up so we are just going to keep your money too."
Dude, we have paid out 171 BTC and 474 LTC to the userbase since June 2013.
I don't understand what you get so upset for. I'm guessing you've earned enough free Bitcoins through us in the last months. Greed is bad.
The payout threshold is 0.01 BTC or 0.5 LTC. If you are really so desperate for a few coins worth a few USDs let me know your PIN or username and I'll process your payment manually.

Bad news. We'll have to remove the USA again. There's just too much abuse/fraud respectively too many non-human/multiple fake listeners to make it worthwhile. A classic case of how a few greedy ones can ruin it for the whole bunch.
Maybe one day we'll add the USA again if we can figure out how to avoid abuse but please don't ask IF or WHEN, it won't change anything. The answer is always: we don't know, and only time will tell.
FAQ: Most of the US callers that don't call any other countries will be left with a small positive balance that they cannot payout now unless they call other countries. Sorry guys, but we won't process your payouts manually. It is difficult to tell who the fraudsters are and we don't want to pay them EVEN MORE, so you can blame it onto them.

Since I have more free time being from being blocked by your service, maybe I should spend it telling everyone exactly what you are.
Because after the announcement I just got a payment from them worth of 0.06 BTC
So I doubt that your payment is higher than mine!
How about Idgaf about your payout? Think before YOU speak.
Corrected it for you!
Well as you can see this is your problem you don't fucking care about someone else!
As we do here! That's why US got removed! If someone is doing something wrong instead of telling him to stop all the people try to take advantage of it!
Maybe some of you don't realize the importance of this service but for small miners this is something like mining with 84GH/s! (at current rate and difficulty for Finland)
So yeah we appreciate this service and respect it, while you take it for granted!
Well SURPRISE it's not granted!
You are nothing but a common troll, so glad you like getting into arguments with matters that don't concern you. Welcome to my ignore list.
Yeah I'm a troll for using this service for 3 months and got payments worth almost 1BTC .... so yes I'm a troll .... in your head .... because I don't agree with you and I defend a service that really helps me get some bitcoins!
If I may ask what is your threshold?

AFAIK, the payment per minute is based on how cheap the admin could buy BTCs the last time, while the displayed exchange value in USD is real-time. It could be that the admin was able to buy BTCs very cheap and that BTC's value has climbed a lot, leading to a very high USD value per minute now.
Yes I am aware of that but I have been doing this for a very long term and have never seen it hit this high before
