I am also a member of slashmysearch. I joined that site last week. Several days ago, I could not access the site so I though it is just another scam site. When I read that it is operational again, I checked it out and voila! It is really up again. I am really happy. I just hope I would reach $50 soon. :)

Looks like the site is beginning to have database connection error.

I think the server might be down. Although it could have been a scam. I hope not I was waiting for my payment to come through like everyone else. Two days ago on the slashmysearch board people were receiving their payments through paypal... So I'm seriously doubting it was a scam... They might have just bit off more then they could chew though.

Maybe it is down. The weird thing is, after Slash My Search has paid a lot of people here, their server went down. I think i read a post here telling us that the owner of Slash My Search has this kind of history. After getting a lot of leads from his website, he turns it off. And then he sells the leads to companies.
I hope, this will not happen to slash.

We had a massive problem at our data center. It took about two days to resolve. Longer than usual due to the U.S. holiday. Everything is back to normal now and nothing was compromised. Your earnings are still intact. We are very regretful but there was nothing we could do. We also apologize to everyone and promise that that will never happen again. Thank you for your continued support.
Thank you,

Looks like slash has made partnership with a 3rd party search engine...
