A free signup is when someone follows your link, fills out the form, and later confirms the link on the email. That is a free signup.

A fraudulent free signup is when you try to beat the system for personal gain.

I never intented to beat the system. All I wanted to do was run a quick test to see if the sponsor I was about to use was shaving. I generated links and passed them out to a rather controllable sample of 4 people in different countries.

If the system had detected fraud on my end, it is the sponsor's responsability to contact me and ask me about the situation, not shave the signups without warning or notice. I have not recieved one single line of text asking why my link attracted 4 uniques and 4 signups. Until now, all I have is a quiet shave.
