I have signed up with them and I am currently at $71.50. I have read negative things such as this about AW and have read where few people were indeed paid.
I have even gone as far as contacting AW in regards to my website in order to not be in breach of their TOS. Adam Seebeck got back to me and gave the greenlight for me to advertise my referral link. I know everyone that has signed up under my link, as they are all either a part of my forum and another forum I have been a part of for quite sometime. And each one has pm'ed me with the info they signed up with.
So I am 99.9% sure that I am in no way, shape, or form in breach of their TOS. As soon as I reach payout I will opt to use the paypal one even though I will lose $25 (which seems a bit extreme to me). But this is so I can once and for all post on my site as to whether or not they are fraudulent.
That is the purpose of my website. I show payment proof of those that do pay and post about the ones that are scams. That way people can see first hand what works and what does not. Then they do not have to go through all the headaches and frustration of trying to find the legit ones.
