Anyone here deal with these guys?
 

EROTICGIVEAWAYS.COM

The claim 75,000 uniques a day and are selling traffic, etc to adult webmasters..

I dunno man. I have searched for them in the gfy history and nothing.

The claim to be around 2.5 years and are VERY well known..

They are news to me..

Anyone else heard of them??

i also got some spam for those clowns.

some dude named alex or alexander from there called me.

seems kinda scammy to me.. but not sure. Prices are high for the traffic.
this is the follow up email he sent to me after we spoke.
--------------------

It was good talking to you earlier today, as I mentioned
before, we sell traffic from our main page which gets 77k
uniques per day.

We are selling our text link spot, exit spot(paid tests
first) and our thumb pic spot. Normally we only use text
links for trading traffic(each text link sends out 1k-2k
uniques/day) but we reserved a number of spots for sale due
the many requests from webmasters with smaller ad budgets.
Here is our pricing for our traffic below:

TEXT LINK(30k-60k uniques Per MONTH) - $550 per MONTH

EXIT Test (77k/day, 36-48 hour test) - $700
Weekly price for EXIT traffic - $2750 Per Week
Thump Pic(80k-120k/MONTH) - $1500 per MONTH

Traffic brokers are mostly scammers and I never heard of them any way, but 2.5 years, with the same url:) is what I am wondering:warning

Those guys are scammers from way back...stay away from them. I know a couple guys that got scammed by them

hmm... I almost did lol

They telephoned me (one of the risks of having your 800 # listed on your web sites, but necessary for hard good sales). The initial approach was a traffic trade but switched quickly to buying their "last text link available".

A bit of research on Alexa and Kartoo showed they were mainly channeling ebony traffic. Not my niche, so I turned them down.

They love to spam

I have NEVER heard anyone speak highly of any traffic they bought, though perhaps they are just keeping it under their hats when they find a good one.

im so glad i read this thread. they've been sending me email for the past week, and today i finally gave in and responded. it seemed legit, so i sent them an email asking a few questions. heh fuck them :(

Obviously. There are a couple excellent traffic brokers, but no one who buys from them would ever post their urls on this board. I hope, anyway. The ones who test the traffic they buy for a while before they sell it off are the ones to go with, but the ones I know of are usually sold out at least 4-6 months in advance.

I have never heard of them either - you can check my sig, for purchasing traffic though. Someone said no one would post if they had good luck - not true.. no secret but the traffic has been very good to me :-)

Scammer offer 30k-60k visitors per month for $500.

The site actually has almost no visitor. Total traffic received are less than 50. Not 50k. 50.

Perhaps there is a "misunderstanding"

So we pretended to be a customer with a different addresses. Here scammer repeatedly make the fraudulent claim that visitors will get 30-60k visitors per month. The guy go all the way giving false testimony shilled by himself or his partners.

We keep record of the whole conversation.

The website is no longer active. Looks like someone nail him finally. Well, prosecutors, if you need more help here is some full evidences you can use to put this guy in jail for a very long time with lots of IPs, etc. Contact me if you want more testimony. Thanks

Basically with help from some victims I got a friend to pretend to be a potential buyer. That way you can see by your self what sort of statement that he used to lure customers and which one of which count as fraud.

Some interesting ones are these:
Glad to hear back from you again, I know that you would get between
30k-60k uniques per month because we use our text links for trading
traffic and ONE of our text links sends out 1k-2k uniques per day.

Contras that to comments from his real customers:
First...they wanted me to overnight the check..I did that. ONE MONTH and
SEVERAL emails later..they finally added my link. But..ok..they screwed up
that part..I can forgive that for traffic.


As for the traffic..lets just say that I will never give these guys another
penny, ever. According to my stats, I got less than 100 hits from them.


I cant imagine they told you to contact me since I have let them know about
my disappointment.


Please dont share my comments with them.

---
That guy advices me though:
the police wont do anything because it is not within their jurisdiction.
They dont handle computer internet cases.


That would be the FBI. The FBI wont do anything because of the dollar
amount involved is too low. The BEST thing to do is to let as many people as
possible know, which I have started doing by posting on the boards that most
webmasters read.

---

Here is another comment
You are right...
It was scam... Money out of the window.


I don't want to spend time on it...
Sad we lost the money... Time to move on.


Best Regards
----
Anyway, however when we pretended to be a customer and ask for some referrals straight from the fraudster, suddenly he has several "customers" giving good testimony. I thought giving false self testimony is illegal. Go figure....

Anyway, fry this guy. Please do.

I'm interested in doing business with ***************** and/or
other sites you run. We run EROTICGIVEAWAYS.COM, where we trade and
sell large amounts of traffic from our main page, which gets 76,000
unique visitors PER DAY.

I wasn't sure if you focused more on trading traffic or buying
traffic, but we are open to either. As far as buying traffic, we are
selling our exit traffic, Thumb Pic spots and reserved a few text
link spots(normally used for trading traffic) for sale on our main
page. The pricing for our traffic is quite affordable.

Let me know, and I look forward to possibly doing business with you
soon.

Dear *****,

Glad to hear back from you again, I know that you would get between
30k-60k uniques per month because we use our text links for trading
traffic and ONE of our text links sends out 1k-2k uniques per day.
That is the amount of traffic we trade with sites.

As far as our exit spot, the 48 hour test is $600, the weekly price
for the exit spot is $2750, and the MONTHLY price for the exit spot
is $10,500.

We use interstincials when sending out exit traffic. Its easiest to
just show you how interstincials work... click the mock-up page link
my webmaster created - http://128.121.64.82/xxx.htm


As far as our traffic goes, we ONLY get paysite, link site, adult SE
and bookmark/homepage traffic... that is it. We DONT get any tgp,
script or cj traffic whatsoever.

url does not work .

Could be because the thread is 8years old... great bump... not.

Why would you bump this??

Because I want this incident to be public record. If there is anyway to destroy that scammer's life I would.
