FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla. – HardcoreMoney.com surprised the webmaster community Thursday by announcing on GFY that parent company Global Media Inc. has decided to pull the plug on the once-popular affiliate program.

yeah they packed up shop pretty quickly without much notice to all the webmasters promoting them... supposedly they sent out info about their closing down to all affiliates promoting them but I sure as hell didn't recieve anything... the only way I found out was from somebody posting a thread on GG & Jim

|angry|

it is really kinda f***** up since they just redesigned their whole webmaster affiliate website and all

Like Kinky, I never received anything. And as I didn't send them a lot of traffc, I found out they are gone only today. Its a little funny considering the fuss their parent company made about being honest |zzzzzzzzz

Damnit!!! They owe us almost $50k. Calling their office only produced run around. Now I have to get my money the hard way :(

P.S. Microsoft was sniffing around for them I know that. I'm guessing they found them.

Ouch! That sucks Becky |sad|

When I talked to them on the phone, they blamed M$ as the reason for their intimely departure. Was still a crappy way to go out though...leaving the sites online and the affiliate links active to steal our hard earned traffic...not cool at all |angry|

Running the final search and replaces today changing out their links.

It sad what M$ can do to a good company. I don't think this is what Tom or Global wanted to happen, but you need deep pockets to fight M$ and stay afloat.

Becky, are you serious: 50K ? I wish you luck getting your money back.
Romeo: having troubles (which you caused yourself) is not a reason to start stealing.

|skull|

Unfortunately yeah, we are owed that much. We keep calling to find out what is going on and keep getting different people to talk to. No mention of closing down.

As for dealing with Microsoft, they agressively pursue spammers. I certainly wouldn't want to be on the other side of them in a court room.

That really sucks Becky...sorry to hear it. Hope you're able to recover those funds.

Finally got all their links changed out...had those suckers spread over 2 servers =/
