In my day anyone getting 0.35$ to 0.55$ per dollar was considered a good deal for cleaning the money. So like the banking scams of 2008 were able to use the technology to their advantage... Along comes some greedy programer puppets to provide a solution for xxxxxxx

No doubt there is a handful of people making money doing business with the tube sites... No con job can be succesful unless it has some people it can point to in order claim and maintain it's illusion of legitimacy...

But I speculate that a large number of the so called advertisers on tube sites only exist as legal fiction and as a click thru on the tube site. This way they pay themselves using a foriegn corporation that they secretly own and as fas as the gouvernement in their home nation is concerned, they earned it.

If anyone wanted to launder money the Internet is the ultimate tool because there is no paper trail and forgery is nothing but a key stroke.
