how does loading an invisible iframe of a parked domain with cpc ads commit click fraud when you have to have a user click on the ads themselves!?

I was scratching my head about that too, but the article mentions the framing of well known click fraud sites. I guess they do the magic.

Wouldn't frame breaker code solve this problem since it would break out of the iframe?

can be done in javascript

greg80 03-17-2011 12:20 PM

holy shit. I can't believe nobody checked the shitty domains he had parked and were making millions. Anyone knows there is no way for such a shitty parked domain to make more than a cent or two per month legally

Anyone that has been around for more than 5 minutes knows who is behind this. It is the "Russian Business Network" guy Viktor who was one of the key players in the codec trojan a few years ago as well as the DNS server poisoning. If you ran any bigger TGPs a couple of years ago this guy would have been hitting you up for trades. The funny part is that he currently has active trades with XNXX.

Thought you might like to know that google Chrome throws this warning when I click your sig.

This is probably not the site you are looking for!
You attempted to reach affiliates.lifestyleamateurs.com, but instead you actually reached a server identifying itself as *.homegrownvideo.com. This may be caused by a misconfiguration on the server or by something more serious. An attacker on your network could be trying to get you to visit a fake (and potentially harmful) version of affiliates.lifestyleamateurs.com.
You should not proceed, especially if you have never seen this warning before for this site.

Really. Genius. Defraud many rich guys a little bit each, and ensure that nobody has the incentives to really fight and chase the fraud.

The guy essentially realized that this type of fraud is really behaving like a parasite within a much bigger ecosystem. And it is a parasite that is so costly to remove that it makes sense to leave it there. As long as the parasite does not annoy the host too much, things will be fine.

Only if fraud becomes really big there will be the real incentive to fight advertising fraud. Until then, you know how to make \$500K/month..

It is not to be fucking with the the RBN or so my friends in Russia tell me.

Just be nice, make the money they allow you to make and go on.
