IEG used to send out checks for as low as $0.02. Not only did they spend 30 some odd sents of postage, but the checks would bounce and banks would charge the webmasters $10 bounced check fee.
Got one from a guy around the time of DMR's demise. I think $9,000 or so, but he didn't get paid from DMR, and didn't have money to pay us. So it bounced, and by the time he was tracked down, he was living on the couch of his cousin in a different state, and didn't have a dime to his name. That's not bad enough, he still owed another $10,000 or $15,000 our way. Money never seen...
Some other flakes here and there, but nothing too substantial. Sometimes people intend on screwing people. Sometimes things happen that are beyond control. And sometimes people just fuck-up. Always be prepared.
