000webhost affiliate program seems like a scam

Hi I am a 000webhost affiliate program member. I have been a member for 4 months. I have sent you 5 referrals and my account says I have 5 pending referrals and some of these referrals are 2 months old and active and their account have website too which is running and active and have content on it. So I am following affiliate program criteria properly but I am not getting a single penny. I have read on other websites that 000webhost affiliate program is scam. Is it true and if not then tell me when will I get paid and why my referrals are still in pending. I have sent you an attachment showing my account referrals.

You don’t get anything for 5 referrals?

Have a look here…https://www.000webhost.com/affiliates/goal-requests

You need 20active referrals needed to claim the lowest reward which is $10.00

Referrals need to be active and come under the following

Your referrals become active once all of the following rules are met:

has been a member for at least 1 month
verified their email address
created at least one website
website has content
website received at least 100 unique visitors within a month
none of the created websites had been suspended for TOS violations
referral was not created by you (each referral will be checked manually)

I have just checked all five of your referrals - none appear to be active, 1 has a WP site which is not created, 1 has default 000webhost website listing, 3 have some sort of “you may like reading”.

None of the five sites are getting 100 unique visitors per month either.
