Date Boycotted: 08-12-2007 URL: http://www.mapleptr.com
MaplePTR is a paid e-mail site offering e-mails worth between 0.5 and 0.75 cents, one referral level and a $1 payout minimum. The site also proudly boasts that payments are made "within 48 hours", though the complaints which follow show this not to be the case.
One reason that MaplePTR is on the boycott list is the non-payment of members. The complaints below detail how members who have reached the minimum payout amount are not being paid according to the site's own Terms of Service. Some of those members have had their accounts deleted. Support e-mails have not been responded to, members have not been paid, and so this program rightly belongs on the boycott list.
The second reason that MaplePTR is on the boycott list is the use of 0x0 iframes. Throughout the MaplePTR site 0x0 iframes are loaded without the visitor's knowledge or consent. The situation is so bad that the Google entry for MaplePTR notes that visiting the site might harm your computer!
Other Sites with the Same Owner
After examining WHOIS records, it is believed that the owner of MaplePTR also owns DaysCash and DaysFind.
For the reasons above, and the complaints listed below, MaplePTR has been boycotted!

Name: diane brunell Date: September 2, 2007 Comments: They claim they have 1263 members and all are active. I have made two payout requests and they have me listed as being paid twice to paypal(which they posted, I didnot). I have submitted a complaint to paypal for falsifying this info, since it has never been deposited to my account. They do not reply to support requests and they are a major sponsor of fairytaleptr which has done the same thing to me
