The other option is offering weekly payments then at least they can prove they will pay out pretty quickly and if they do scam then you've only given them a weeks worth of advertising. However, some deals have paid out for the first couple/few weeks then eventually scammed so it's not a guarantee but I suppose any deal could eventually not pay for whatever reasons.
I have noticed that the deals that have moved from weekly to monthly deals that do not offer escrow almost always tend to scam. It seems like they tend to build up a reputation (as you mentioned above) then once people are comfortable with advertising without escrow they change to monthly payments and end up not paying after receiving a month of free advertising (which often happens to be less then what they have even paid for when they were paying out weekly)

I'm really quite sane!
why is CoinPiler still on the list? Shocked

Only for sometime... Just wait, he might come out of nowhere to pay the users. Huh Lips sealed

   ~~MZ~~

OP should at least put a * and warn about the payment problem

It's not a payment problem , it is a *scam* . Ppl must learn that an escrow is not more "recommended" but  it is needed.
The only real way around a signature campaign using escrow is for up front payments, however this would mean that the campaign operator would be at risk of participants scamming.

I tend to agree with your statement with the exception of businesses (like prime dice for example) that are very well established within the community

When the escrow is more trustworthy than the member you are doing business with, you are lowering your risk because the escrow is less likely to scam than the member you are doing business with.

True, coinpiler was removed from the list! Smiley

@OP : Try to add 'added' to the change log after coinsweeper.com

Code:
6-Dec-2014: CoinPiler removed and Coin-Sweeper.com .

CoinPiler is scam, doesn't pay for November, plz remove it.

I'm shocked that someone who refused to use escrow with flimsy excuses turned out to be a scam.

I've asked him several times times to use an escrow but this  was his reply :

Hi all the curious & cautions mind of BitcoinTalk Community.

I do highly respect all of your opinion of making an escrow. I do understand that you must want to keep the community safe and secure (at-least SCAM free) I am not outside of this intension.

I know that making an escrow would greatly improve my credibility, professionalism and so forth....

But thing is I cannot depend on others (at-least where my money involved). I cannot give my money to others and tell them not to waste or loss, or keep them safe for me. My money can be well protected to only myself...

Please don't take my decision in different angle.... take it as straight as I tell here... I do know, you can tell me lots of things against this post, you can even present me world's secured vault with world's most trusted guy to provide escrow... But I must not making any escrow...

After this post I would not reply any escrow related question. If you can join this campaign with my terms, please you are welcome... If you feel that you are not safe without escrow, please do not waste your precious time to reply this thread.....

If this post hurt anyone, its not intentional, I do highly respect your perception.....

Thanks




The first time these guys ran their signature campaign, i got in and took part. They nearly gave everyone a scare when the payment was delayed by 2 days. They eventually paid out every participant. I saw the writing on the wall when they started verbally abusing everyone who had posted negative feedback in their thread, at not receiving payments, which was a fault of Coinpiler in the first place! They paid out late!! Coinpiler then proceeded to remove people from the campaign and acted as though they were doing people a favor by paying people what they had promised in the first place! I took off, even though i did not have any campaign active.. i proceeded to use my website link in my signature before i got my current campaign. Felt it was better to steer clear of these guys and its a good thing i did.

Yeah I know , but Fj has conducted a previous sig. campaign where the payments were "up-front" or am I wrong ? (I was enrolled in all the FJ sig. campaign).

Yup. Edited my post above before you replied

Yeah I've seen ,  they pay directly in the account so I think the unique possibility is pay in "up-front". However it is their choice Wink.

He pays directly in the coin-sweeper  account .... also fortuneJack .

Nothing wrong with that as long as you're able to withdraw without limitations. Had no issues in this matter with FJ.

Edit: But is this their first campaign, or have they done one previously? If it's 1st - they defo should escrow or pay in advance (like FJ did with their 1st camp)

Escrow: No


No escrow and lower rates than Fortune Jack


Doesn't seems promising

Haven't they run a campaign previously? If so, there's no real need for an escrow.

Rates are lower than FJ, but FJ is only for seniors and above. And if all spots are taken in FJ camp, then some seniors may go for it.
