I don't think this is the only tube I've seen promoting this asshole but is the one I remember off the top of my head: YouJizz is promoting KevinsMoneyTree.org aka Google Money Tree aka one of the biggest scams going around on the net right now.

"Google Money Tree, its principals, and related entities allegedly misrepresented that they were affiliated with Google and lured consumers into divulging their financial account information by advertising a low-cost kit that they said would enable consumers to earn $100,000 in six months. They then failed to adequately disclose that the fee for the kit would trigger monthly charges of $72.21, the complaint states. This case was filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Nevada."

Basically, by every personal account of this scam that I've seen, most people never receive a thing, and the lucky few who do receive it indicate it's exactly what is on the site they get access to, i.e. outdated shit info that would not make anyone good money. "Kevin" is not the only name that goes around with this scam - there's a bunch of different fake people with splogs pimping this shit, and the fake comments are all the same on them only different people's names etc...like exact same check images, etc.

What next? Promote illegal drugs or underage hookers or something? Tube sites are quickly becoming the face of the industry given they're all by and large the highest traffic adult sites on the net...if you all are fine with being looped in with scam shit like this, keep doing nothing!
