There is 2 guys going around impersonating adult tube site reps, giving bullshit traffic numbers, using Alexa info to pass off top 10 GEOs so that you believe they work for the company and then ripping people off for $5k tests with the promise of giving them exclusivity on a spot that seems to be an insane deal.
Here are a few tips for everyone who buys traffic
1. ALWAYS check the website for an Advertising link to see who handles the ad space
2. Ask the person you are talking to, to send you an email from their tube domain
3. Check company information - if it matches the info on the tube site 9/10 its a scam, no company will use their public corporate name on the tube as their billing info, too easy for banks to catch it.
4. Check the actual site to see if anyone you know is buying their traffic, ask their advice if they know said sales rep.
5. Use common sense - if a deal seems too good to be true, it most likely is a scam.
Stay safe people. These guys tried it with one of our sites, they even spent 3 days in negotiations with me personally, I played then when I told him who I was he simply asked "who gave you my contact". Scumbags.
