i can think of only a few situations where buying traffic might work out. A person like WiredGuy. There are other people like him, search engine wizards, who have no interest in signing up and testing out programs .... much easier for these types of people to find a few good customers for their traffic and be done with it.

Same thing with domain tycoons.

But 98% of people brokering and selling traffic are con artists.
Somebody mentioned it............why would you sell traffic that you know you can make more money with filtering it and sending it on to sponsors?

And the old bait and switch traffic test is as old as the Adult Net.
They'll send you quality traffic for your 100 dollar test, then once they have a check for a couple thousand dollars or more .......... like shit through a goose watch that recycled circle jerk, 12 th blurred console in a chain traffic is let loose on you!

The smart con artists lets this bait and switch thing go on a lot longer, until you're totally suckered in that the guy is good. So you're still sending him big checks probaby 5 figures now and slowly the traffic gets worse and worse, you can string people along for a long time working this way.
