I joined primaryads.com late November and I did well with their AFF CPA offer ($3.75 per free register) so i decided to give it a full push in December.
On Dec 27th I got the e-mail below:

David,
I hope all is well. We were checking stats on Adult Friend Finder and the advertiser has no record of your leads coming in. We also found that you are framing the landing page which is a violation of our terms and conditions.
We need to fix the tracking immediately and the framing is the main problem why it's not tracking properly. We also will have a very hard time collecting money from the advertiser because of this. I would strongly advise to pull your traffic immediately.
Let me know if you have any questions.

Then on Jan 3rd I got the email below:

David,
We had to take down Adult Friend Finder effective today (1-3-07), the offer is still not tracking properly and we can't leave it up on the network any longer.
We did redirect it to Eroticy. Let me know if you have any questions.
Thanks,

I had no problem with my November payout so I thought that every thing should be ok with my December payout, I just received my check today and I noticed that over 80% of my check was deducted.
I Immediately contacted my PrimaryAds account manager via AIM and and here is what he stated:

My account manager stated that everyone had payout problems with the aff offer, I want to know if members of this forum had a similar problem like me with PrimaryAds or am I the only one that got screwed?
