Let me guess the affiliates email address is
[email protected] and his name is Krisof Ribin?
We just got hit by this guy sending fraud sales but caught him early and refunded all the sales that hadn't charged back. Emailed him and he wrote back furious we'd accuse him of such things lol.
We always take a deeper look when a new affiliates starts sending multiple daily sales, mainly because I want to thank them but also to make sure they are legit.
Here are the usual red flags...
- The referring url doesn't have a link to your site
- Member signing up with a woman's name
- Affiliates email address is from a free service, hotmail, gmail, live etc.
- Address is obviously not right, like this sdaking douch (Abel Tasmanstraat 36 apt 211, United states) lol
- No other contact details, icq. skype, phone, etc.
All of these on their own wouldn't raise a red flag, but when multiple sales come in like this I contact the affiliate and take it from there, usually asking for one reference of a program they have been dealing with for a couple of months.
This sdaking guy swore the sales were legit, but ever reg flag pointed to fraud and the charge backs started coming in slowly.
