Scam? Banned in myLot with over 300 other members

On 27th of January i got banned together with my wife and some other 300 members.

Most of these members had multiple accounts or did just register to make troubles to other members like non-sense responses or discussions. And for some of them their only purpose is to rate other members negative so that their star rating will be lowered significantly.

For the members like my wife and me it's not clear what has been the background for our banning. There have been also other cases which don't share one internet connection. We share our connection with other house mates in Kuala Lumpur or with family members in Johor Bahru, but we have separate accounts, separate paypal-address and so on.

After sending myLot 2 e-mails regarding this issue, there hasn't been any answer yet. If you read their terms they also state that they can ban you for no reason or they don't have the need to investigate further why you have been getting banned.

They other possibility could be that we got banned because of the "abuse reports" which every member can do when they click on the "!" after each response/comment or discussion. Even in this case you can't defend yourself against members who don't write the truth.

In the end i registered newly and my wife doesn't take part anymore until it's clear what the problem of our accounts have been (if we get an answer at all).

I hope i will see you again in myLot, the best paying social forum in the Internet!

If you had the same problem like my wife an me, please leave a comment, so that we know more about the backgrounds about this banning which had a duration from one week.

  1. That was so unfair of what happened to you and your wife. It sucks that you have to make a new one and because of the incident, your wife do not want to take part of it until she knows why you and her were banned from mylot. I hope that they will answer your question. If not, then it's just not fair in my opinion.

  2. Hello Lauriehomebusiness,

    seems like everything is fixed again with myLot, our accounts and the lost earnings.

    myLot put the earnings in February back in our account and i could get the payout on 15th of March like you can see in this post:

  3. Hi friend. I am on the mylot. Oh sorry, I should say I was on the mylot. Until yesterday everything was fine with my account but today when I logged in they said my account is inactive. They say your account is inactive for 3 reasons. Either you are absent for 3 months which I wasn't. Second you've violated terms and conditions which I didn't for sure. I used to check every post if it violates guidelines or not. I think they might have banned me because of abusing search engine. But I am not sure. Because before lots of days I used to search through search engine a lot and they warned me not to abuse it. But this was long time ago. I didn't abused search engine in recent days. Yesterday I won reward for it as well. If they mean I abused it, then they would have informed me about that. I was going to receive my first payout of 11 dollars on this 15 th. I am very upset.
    I want to contact them. Do you know email to contact? I can't contact go ask alice because I don't have account anymore.
    How do you know that 300 accounts were banned on the same day?
