Abnormally large sale. Do 123RF have something similar to SS SODs?

I got an abnormally large sale and can't figure it out. On the earnings page it's shown only as a Credit sale, but I've never seen anything this big before.

I'm hoping it's correct but fear it may be an error, and it will suddenly lose a couple of 00s.

Anyone else seeing any anomalies?

Same here.
Another fake hope  as it seems.

Yeah, looks that way. I guess it's nice while it lasts :)

I just hope they don't lull us into a false sense of security, and then claim it back in about 4 months time.

I got few of those around a year ago.. sadly they were all refunded within a week. Never asked for an explanation, but surely was a fraud. :(

I'm sure there is a problem with it, but this isn't a sudden flurry of sales totalling $400, this is one credit sale apparently paying me commission of $400.

Maybe it is the 'great news' we were promised for the end of March, and we have an extreme pay rise ;)

It doesn't hurt to send an email and inquire about what kind of license it was ...

Yeah, I'll probably do just that. I was just wondering if it was an isolated incident or whether it was happening to lots of us.

I had that once last year. It was never refunded, so I assume it is legit.

I recall it happened to lots of people 2-3 years back turned out to be an error...still you never know good luck ;-).

Thanks :)

Deep down I' kind of assuming it's an error, but a small part of me remains hopeful!. I messaged 123, so I'll let you all know how it pans out.

I spoke to 123, and it looks as if it's an error - especially as it was only a blog size image!

It was a nice thought while it lasted  ;)

Shame when it happened to me I got about $2,000 for three images...was quite excited for a few seconds.

Yeah, it was lovely to see that sudden graph spike on Stockperformer, but I had a feeling it was too good to be true.
