Bux.gs turns into another PTC scam

One more bad news for all the PTC users after the collapse of Buxwiz. The so promising PTC site bux.gs finally made the terrible announcement on the forum that Paypal has permanently closed their account, so maybe for all the bux.gs users, this might be the end of their hopes. This is what the administrator has announced formally:

"Terrible news.
PayPal permanently closed our account.
Sending and receiving of payments with our PayPal account has been stopped over a week ago, that's why payments have been stopped since then. This is all I get after logging in to my account:

Quote
Why is my account access limited?
Your account access has been limited for the following reason(s):
Oct 28, 2009: We have observed activity in this account that is unusual or potentially high risk.
Oct 26, 2009: A recent review of your account detected suspicious activity regarding the receipt or withdrawal of funds. While we investigate this matter, access to your account is limited.

Phone support is just useless, and e-mail support is not better at all. I've been in contact with them since I first noticed that, and here are their replies:

For the safety and security of the PayPal network, we often review accounts
for potential risks. After reviewing your account, we have decided to close
it because of security issues.

We are making every effort to minimize any disruption to your business.
If your PayPal account balance is zero, and you have no unresolved buyer
complaints or chargebacks, your account will remain limited.

Thank you for contacting PayPal in relation to sending and receiving
payments via PayPal.

We are making every effort to minimize, Paiva any disruption to your
business. If your PayPal account balance is zero, and you have no unresolved buyer
complaints or chargeback’s, your account will remain limited.

Thank you for contacting PayPal in relation to the permanent limitation on
our account.

I apologise, Mr. Paiva, if you feel the information and service you have
received is unacceptable. However, I can only re-iterate what has already
been said.

PayPal reserves the right to close any account reported to be involved in
possible high-risk behavior. In the event of a dispute, PayPal will seek to
recover the funds from you by debiting your PayPal balance first and, if
there are insufficient funds in your PayPal balance, PayPal reserves the
right to collect your debt to PayPal by any other legal means. We are under
no obligation to provide any additional information on permanent account
limitations, and do not provide any further information as this may assist
with future circumventing of our account reviewing.

If you are determined to find the reason why your account may have been
limited, please review the entire user agreement, particularly in relation
to locking accounts, and review whether any of the terms of use may have
been breached.

This sucks. I couldn't even come here to let you know this, as I was hoping they would reverse their one-sided decision. They never gave me a reason for what they've done. If they just unfrozen the funds, I'd act like nothing happened and continue to send payments as usual. Everyone would be happy.
They have close to 90% of our funds.

I need your help. Let me know what I can do for us to stay as strong as ever.
Thanks for your support."

That means we are left only with 3 genuine PTC on the web, Neobux, Clixsense, and Palmbux. So, its my request to all my fellow PTC users to use only these three PTC sites and forget everything else.
