I submitted two articles that I wrote up about my favorite singers, Reba McEntire and Reba's sister Susie Luchsinger. When I finally recieved a response from associated content they told me that the articles ( both of them) had been posted else where and I was infringing on someone elses copyright. Plagarizing. Excuse me? There is no WAY those articles were copied from another source. I wasn't even near a PC when I wrote them. I was at the lake with my family and I worked on writing while they were fishing. I worked a couple hours on each and was very proud of the finished product. I am definitely done with associated content. I wasted my time.

Take your articles to here:

Have them analyzed (you may have to sign up) and see where what you've written may have been written somewhere else. Once you know, you can change what you need to in the articles. Or completely disprove them.

Oh! Sad to hear that. I am a member of Associated Conteent, too. Well, i wish what happened to you won't happen to me. If your work was a plagiarized, still it would be a reason for not paying you. They should still pay you and sent you the work which they alleged to have been copied from. You still deserved to be paid with the effort. lol

Thats' really a sad news. Now why I say this and why I believe you is that, even I work like to write my articles. Yes, I know how it feels to be cheated by someone. Even I experience problems with associated content. I had signed up for associated content in september. When I decided to submit articles, the site took ages to download just the index page. I could never see how the pages look like. I tried the site from various ISPs and explorers. I thought I missed my opportunities to earn good. But when now I read this, its quite diferent and shocking. I have to decide what to do now.
