Prizes.Org Upset!!

Two months ago I won a prize on Prizes.Org. I came up with a company name and domain and it was picked by the 'creator' of the contest. I entered fair and square. I didn't 'steal' the name. In fact, I did a google search to make sure the name was not in use. It wasn't. The rules say you would be paid within a couple of days. Well, I wasn't. I emailed a couple of times and they responded saying contests need to be verified and just keep waiting. Flash to today. I cannot log in, they say my account has been suspended. I tried to send an email to Prizes.Org to find out what happened but it is returned, saying I am 'no longer an account holder'. WTH??? I am really upset that A) They suspended me without any notification and cool smiley Won't answer my questions and C) Won't pay me for a contest I won fair and square. I homestly don't know why they would suspend my account unless it is for plagerism (as stated in the Terms of Use) but again, I did not steal anything. I came up with the name honestly.

This is so not fair and I'm wondering what I can do about it. Any ideas?

Apparently, people have given Prizes.Org good reviews. They call this type of site crowdsourcing. I am just so irritated that this happened. I feel like I've been branded unjustly.
I had a similiar experience on valued opinion.com never would let me reach my threshhold of a $20 pay out after months waiting... canned em... if you enjoy crowd sourcing try mturk.com... or sign up for inbox dollars and they have tasks...i have been paid by both... mturk does have some offer trading which is being paid an amount to sign up for a monthly service...

npr onpoint did a spot on online ratings... some ar trustworthy some are not... sorry u got burned ... but stuff happens... who knows maybe its a legit site that is having financial probs..
. or maybe it never was...

Every things a learning experience.. doesnt mean its pleasant...
