Numbers Don’t Lie
Here are some examples, taken from a popular adult industry forum, of camgirl earnings. Some of these are quite shocking. Remember, our earnings have been steadily declining over the years. My opinion of the industry and the scams within will never change, despite how much sneakier and scummier those controlling it have become. The only question remaining is: how much lower can they go?
just over $30 in 3 hours on SM.. traffic has been great yesterday and today but it’s just guys popping in and out all night, sometimes saying “Hi” and leaving a second later. I think it’s the site, I haven’t had nights this bad in weeks.
The few guys that DO talk have all been “show me a lil something then pvt, ok bb??” “love your tits, can I see them?” I usually don’t get too many of those but this past week there’s been an explosion of douchebags on SM.
WHERE ARE MY REGS WHEN I NEEEEED THEM?!?!?
—————————–
Well I am just doing way better than yesterday.. ROFLMAO!… I have made $20 bucks and I am not even done with my 5 hours yet.. woot woot!
—————————–
Oh darl, I feel you. Made shitty 8 bucks on 2 hours on sm today. And sm always send me pvt sound even if there is no pvt. Thanks Sm for making me frustrated!!
—————————–
$6? What in the HELL? it’s been almost 3 hours now.. uggh
$17 in 5 hours.. that’s almost impossible.. I GIVE UP!.. STREAMATE, CAMS, KINKLIVE, NITEFLIRT, IFRIENDS.. XXXCAMBABES, GIRLSPRIVATECAM ETC ETC.. REALLY?? JUST FUCKING REALLY?
—————————-
Oh, for the love of God…it says that today I was logged into ImLive for 9 hours and only made $5.38. And it says that yesterday I was logged on for 7 hours and made $1.64. This is absolute insanity. Well, uh…some good news…I finally accumulated enough points on Opinion Outpost (one of those paid survey sites) to cash out via PayPal. YAY ME! 😛 I had 110 points, which equates to $11 via PayPal. And the payout happened INSTANTLY. I’ve got my PayPal debit card, and I’m about to buy some food. You’d be amazed how I can stretch $11.

Ugh, 2 hours on SM last night and $30. I wanted to stay on longer but the last hour I couldn’t make anything so I logged off. I haven’t even been able to sell a Skype show in days. A week ago I was getting pretty consistant shows and now it’s nothing. I’ve had a few guys contact me but they have been freeloaders or they just disappear after I tell them to give me 5-10 minutes before I can do the show.

Worst week EVA so far.. ugh I only have less than 3 days left.. I am clocking 12 bucks a fucking hour on average all week!.. I suck!… or they suck.. someone fucking sucks

happy i was on period last week and didnt work. but yeah. :(( today in 5 hours made 110. yesterday made in 6 hours 120. thats deff not me. i am simple, without make up, only sitting not to teasy 🙂 but i always show my eyes and i always smile, always polite. but past few weeks… woooow. never had anything like that in my two years career. people come and leave. its sooo great i have some regulars that actually come and help since they know why i do this job. it diesnt matter they tip only 5 per day, but still. btw, i tried everything past few weeks- i was doing 1 gold shows( i usually do 5 for 7 mins, not always works for me gold shows, but i dont like them anywayz)- noone joined, or like two three guys join, then dailies come and tip until goal is reached. i dont even talk about privates. its like +10000 warm outside and i need sit ahead computer because in 3 days i didnt manage to make 500 bucks which is not me, when i work 5 hours i always make 150. but now…. i dunno. !
it was like slow when football championship was, but deff not like that. thanks god for my dailies with 3s and 4s next to their names. :)) and yes, natural girls attract guys there 🙂 since i never ever put any make up or do my hair. i dont care anymore. in my whole life i got only few bad comments about me – bad teeth( but yeah, they are bad! i would need around 10000 bucks to fix them), that i am a moody cow and malipulator and liar( but the guy appoligised me after i explained purpose of topic and he also tipped me later). good luck girls! i really hope things will get better on SM and they will fix the damn page——————
I’m on my way to the store for a gluten free burrito, big bag of peanut butter m&ms and lord knows what else. Pretty frustrating – $25 in 4 hours. Can’t even start about all the sorry ass trolls & low iq nimrods I’ve seen since Thursday.
——————-
Woohoo!!.. 28 bucks in 3 hours .. YAY ME!.. and I actually had a decent day yesterday.. over my mid range goal… Low goal is $100, Mid goal is $200, High Goal is $300+ for me.
——————-
Arghhhhh camming SUCKS it could not suck anymore than it sucks right now.
5 hours camming…£18 earnt.I thought being the last day of the month people got paid today?
————————————–
Wow! 15$ in 3 hours. At this rate, I’ll be able to retire in….oh, let’s see…ummmm…I’m 40 now and if I live to be 90….I can retire in 50 years?
FML!

Amanda,
I don’t know if you saw it but @streamate on twitter, the account was suspended and I wonder who else will be. Also Wag Acquistions LLC decided to add Vube.com to the ICF technology patent lawsuits in July. Can’t wait to see who they go after next. Has Mr. Abramson contacted you yet? I am sure you would be a great character witness to how Shawn Boday operates. I guess it is not a good summer for Boday and his group of harassers. One look at their Compete and Alexa traffic stats shows a big decline since they closed your account.
It also appears that there is a little group of webcam performers who are recruiters and have studios on ICF Technology Inc.’s white labels. They seem to be losing a grip of their performers as the traffic dies off and Skype shows become cheaper as well as more popular. It looks like their money cow’s milk has dried up and they can’t make the big money anymore. This is the answer to your attacks whenever you post against them. I saw this before with the affiliates on Ifriends.
Three things I learned a long time ago. First, if something that is supposed to be random in nature starts to look like it has a pattern then it is being manipulated by someone for their own personal gain. Seen too often in stock market schemes and under Hadhazy’s regime. Second, when a group of specific people try to twist and discredit someone who is speaking out or trying to help their fellow workers, it is likely because that “someone” is speaking too much of the truth and the fellow workers see behind the curtain. They always try to have the last word against you because they are paranoid that nobody is listening to them anymore. Lastly, if a company has a glitch in their system that should be losing them money and it does not get fixed for months to years then it is not losing them money. Therefore the so-called glitch is an actual purposeful act to take hidden money from people. No company that loses money on a glitch does not fix it immediately. So Streamate and Ifriends’ glitches are all done on purpose to take money from the performers, affiliates and customers.
The complaints and reports about Streamate and those of Ifriends are starting to look and act the same in many regards. I have also discovered that Streamate has partnered up with some of the same people as Webpower Inc/Ifriends since September 2011 which happens to be the same month as the domain Webcam-mate.com was created. I think you and the other performers were not suppose to see, find it or even know about the connection. The website did not just change its information to show Accretive Technologies Group’s servers or Webpower Inc as the domain registrant but it closed and disappeared within two weeks of your blog. Look familiar to you? Seems like the old, change it quickly and make it look like it was just an error or oversite. Nothing to see here! Kind of like how Webpower took off Sheri Falco’s name so quickly from their DotXXX domains and how @streamatepage3 changed its name to @bigfloppydnkeyD and deleted their tweets. The old saying, “if it looks like a rat, smells like a rat then it probably is a rat” certainly appears very true in this case of ICF Technology Inc/Streamate and WebpowerInc/Ifriends.
Keep being outspoken and informing your fellow performers about these two scam artists. Maybe some day other performers will have the courage to speak out when they can’t make any money anymore and have absolutely nothing to lose. As a group you all have the power over them!
