Alertpay is one of many payment processors. I do a lot of ptc (pay to
click sites) and since Paypal banned PTC owners most of them transfered
to Alertpay. Alertpay has 3 types of accounts, Personal starter with
which you can send and the receive the money but with the limit
of $400 per month and $2000 per year, personal pro with which you can
send and receive the money and there are no limits of sending or
receiving the money and business for business owners who also get a
website integration.
I opened myself and Personal pro account so that I could send and receive the money without limits. Here’s what alertpay
sais about this account

I was satisfied with Alertpay until about 2 weeks. I got paid from a PTC
site at the end of the May. I was always an honest member and I never
cheated or used any cheating system so I was really surprised when on 12
of June I saw that my Alertpay account balance was back to $0. First I
thought my account was hacked but then I saw that the payment from the
ptc site that paid me was reversed. I never got any explanation nor did
anyone ask me about this reverse they just took the money. Fortunately I
didn’t touch the money I got because I was planing to do something with
it and I needed $10 more but I went to the forum of this scam site who
used to be honest and a lot of members complained about this happening
to them too and some of them who withdrew the money found out that their
balance was negative and that they owed money to Alertpay.
So it makes me wonder if they could take back the money just like that
can I do it too? I mean, if I buy an item somewhere and I pay for it
from my Alertpay account, can I ask for the reverse of the money when
this item finally arrives so I keep the item and the money? Is this
normal? I think that would be called a theft so what they did to me was a
theft too.
That makes me wonder about the service from Alertpay in general, what
kind of insurance does they offer us? I contacted them for this but
several hours have past and I got no reply, not even a note that they
will investigate it or something like that.
What I think is that now since Paypal doesn’t accept PTC any more
Alertpay is the main payment processor who accepts them so they don’t
wanna ban any of the ptc sites because they know that then all the ptc
owners would pass to some other payment processor and they are actually
the only ones who earn from this fake transactions because they took a
50 cents from the transaction when I got the payment and I guess they
charges the reverse action to the owner of the site too.
I have to use Alertpay because most of the sites I try to ear with use
it but still I want to warn everybody that even when you get the money
this money isn’t yours because they can reverse it whenever they want
to.
I know a girl who got 3 payments from one site and when site turned into
scam they reversed all 3 payments although the first one was more than 1
month old. So if they can take money back whenever they want how can we
be sure that this money is ours?
