Date Boycotted: 18-06-2008 URL: http://www.cooperativemail.com
CooperativeMail is a paid e-mail program, offering e-mails worth $333, a $333 signup bonus, a $333333 payout minimum and a four level referral structure. The site's Terms notes that after a redemption is requested payment will be made within the first ten days of the following month - a claim which, as can be seen from our complaints below, is not true.
The first reason CooperativeMail is boycotted is the non-payment of its members. Despite their claim to pay honest members, it is clear from the complaints below that this site does not pay at all, and has no intention of paying its members in the future. The gravity of this problem is furthered if the site's claim to have over 23,000 members (at the time of writing) is true. It is noteworthy that the site's Terms states that the amount members will be paid depends on the "site revenue", so members will never receive the amounts promised. Despite this clause, it is clear that this site is not paying any of its members any sum of money, large or small.
The second reason CooperativeMail is boycotted is the patent unsustainability of the site. Any site offering to pay such unrealistic sums for reading e-mails is not at all likely to pay its members. GPTBoycott urges its visitors to refer to sustanability principles when deciding which programs to be a member of. To find out more about sustainability, please visit our sustainability area. It should be clear that any program which offers to sell an $333 cent e-mail to over 23,000 members for $4300 must have no intention of paying its members. It should also be clear that such business practices warrant a boycott of this site.
For the reasons above, and the complaints listed below, CooperativeMail has been boycotted!

Name: Christine Simplot Date: March 28, 2005 Comments: I was told this was a scam site and the site itself just proved it to me. This is the email I received this morning:
"Hello,Awesome Member!
Our site has a new WM on March 28,2005,and the site terms have been changed.
Click the below link to read our new terms.
The old WM haven't given the emails copy to me.If you have made a redemption
before March 28,2005,
sorry I can't respond you.Please don't send emails to ask for it,your emails
will be ignored."
I had turned in for redemption on 3/4/05 and they have NEVER answered an email. I also do not believe there is a new WM. This one writes EXACTLY the same way as before.
Name: Mike Elliott Date: March 28, 2005 Comments: I have reached payout five times within a space of two months but have yet to be paid. Administration do not/have not replied.My partner had some site earnings disappear and admin did not return his query regarding the matter. He has also not been paid
Name: Aaron Marietta Date: March 28, 2005 Comments: I am awaiting payment from these people. But they claim to payout at $33,333. So far I have hit payout just about 3 times and it has been at least a month from my first payout. The problem is that they changed Owners/webmasters and now they say that they will not pay anyone who hit payout before March 26th 2005. I am giving them 3 days to respond to my e-mail and pay me before I file a lawsuit...if anyone wants in on this one please contact me.
