A couple month back I join the site Yuwie. It was fun, tou make new friends and you earn money at the same time. It's a clone of MySpace. When I was about to reach the 25$ pay out my account page view was reset to zero. There escuse was that one of my referral deleted there account. Very difficult. I don't have no referral. Keep away from Yuwie if you want to make money. If you want to make friends myspace is way better.

Thanks for that information, don't worry I will take your advice for that. Though your information is late at least I will not devout time to that YUWIE anymore. For it was just yesterday that I signed up but because of your information I will not work it out.

If you want, you are able to delete your profile. I did, after I wrote to all my real friends there, where to find me on myspace.

I am a member of Yuwie two months now and I am waiting earning status for October now. My status is improving each day and it makes me happy. I have over 340 referrals now and everything looks normal (so far).
I wonder Have you broke their rules? Signing your page to auto surfs and related sites to boost page views is forbidden. Also paying money to program called Yuwie Builder is against their TOS.
I see that OldBuddy received his first payment 25$, because of that I still have trust in Yuwie. But you never know!

I never join any program to auto surf, nothing like that, the response I had from them, is that someone in my referral(downline) did something illegal and for that I had to pay the consequence. That person was ban from Yuwie. Me my account was set to zero.

Hm, that is strange! Do you ask for explanation? What your downline make to get banned from Yuwie? I think that all people have to be on their own, you can't be responsible for all downline.

I did follow there rule carefully.
Some bullshitt about someone in my downline that did something illegal. Why should I be reponsible for someone in my downline?
By the way I love your dancing pinguoin!!!!!

Really? They said your referral deleted their account even though you have no referral? wow, that's weird. I'm just starting out in Yuwie and a lot of people have been earning there so i wonder why such a thing happened to you? I think page views are reset every month but the earnings are tallied for each month's page views...

I contacted yuwie. I knew about the reset.
They say I was reset to zero because of illegal stuff that someone in my downlines made. Why should I loose on the 20th of the month over 200000 page view because of someone in my downlines. Why should I pay for others.

Oh my, that's really bad of them... maybe they thought your downline cheated or something. That's really bad of them... Why should they reset it to zero in the first place? That's unfair...

well i joined yuwie some 2-3 months ago , and sometimes i think to be active in yuwie and earn some money - so i login to it - just after spending some 2-3 minutes i get bored out there and log out . Its not because of the fact that i have less friends out there but there is something missing . Hey this is my second day at Mylot being an active member (i have registered at mylot some 2-3 months ago)- now i really enjoy the atmosphere around here . Here there are always some cool topics to discuss also
Oh sorry i think am going away from the topic - Well according to me Yuwie has not developed yet to a standard online social marketting site- it still has to be improved a lot .

I'm not saying that Yuwie is a scam. I'm just saying to be carefull about them. They cheated me of my page view ( I was reset tozero on the 20th of the month) just when I was about to collect my first 25$ and I wasn't alone. Just be carefull.

I had many of my myLot friends asking me joimn this site. But myLot is the only forum site I am a member of and love it so I never even looked at the site. No interest at all. Sorry though about the loss of the points etc you experienced. Grrr!
HAPPY POSTINGS FROM GRANDPA BOB !!~

Ah--I see another person fed up with Yuwie. Join the club. I was one of the first to say what a lot of crap it was. LOL. And unfortunately, some die-hards who think it's wonderful attacked me. Now I even have a bigger gripe with it as I just find the place annoying to try to work with. It's too slow for starters, it's always down for maintenance, but this is the first time I've heard that you lost out on pay...wonder if they do this often?

I had a lot of my friends there that lost there pay. They just say, what the hell. I'm moving on to the next thing. Me I just want to warn people. You work a lot. For peanuts! And when it's time to pay they find something to put you back to zero. If they cannot pay you, just say so. "We didn't meet our earning for this month, we are unable to pay you" or something like that. I would be more understanding.

Thank-you for posting this. If we have bad experiences with scams we need to share it so we can all avoid loss of time and money.
I joined that site back some time and even signed up under a person on here. then suddenly my rating here dropped. I was pretty shocked. Based on that I think that place might not be a real friends place to hang out. Seemed complicated and unfriendly.
I love the idea though. I wish a reputable site like that would come along.

You have more chance to earn money by doing a blog, and signing up with program that pay you to blog. My Sister is doing that and she earn $200 just last month. I sure will try this. A bit of extra money is always welcome.

That's too bad that your account page was reset. I rarely go on yuwie. I really don't like the set up. Mylot is so much easier. But thanks for the info.

That is the scheme about that place. The only way to make money there is to get referrals. But the thing is, you don't know who you will get has a referral. that person can enter the site and do something that for Yuwie is illegal and you're the one paying for that referral!!!
