Well DesignCrowd is a forum with over 700 members and after getting this email yesterday i was shocked. When will the adsense cheaters stop
Try it. He'll be so scared he'll look over that address. But do make reference to his e-mail as posted by TWJ. That way it's easier to see the link to what he's done. He'll be kicking his arese and write a cry-baby e-mail straight back BTW if he's not using Gmail (likely with that address) then it's a lot harder to see. Remember you can set all these individually: $mailheaders = "From: $NAME AdSense Team <$EMAIL>\r\n"; $mailheaders .= "Reply-To: $EMAIL\r\n"; $mailheaders .= "Return-Path: $EMAIL\n"; PHP:
i think reporting the guy to google is letting him off too easy. someone should threaten him and let him have some sleepless nights first before actually sending a report to google
Thats what we are trying to do Yeah, I forgot about that.. if hes not using gmail it will be a lot easier to see the reply too address. He'd probably catch it. I dunno Josh
No because in Outlook etc. you won't get to see the address when you set FROM: Adsense Team . You can but have to double click it or view properties.
Forget the reply email. Spoof it to return back to adwords direct instead. If he actually replied to them he would put his own red flag up to google I sure hope I'm not bidding on any keywords that show on his site! Keep it clean! Clicks are already hard to convert! KG
Ok Ok I sent it.. just as shown in the screenshot. keywordguru, we just want to see how he replies Josh
Wow, he fell for it What on earth are you referring to? There has been no illegal clicks at all - I do not understand your mail - Please enlighten me. I have a forum and periodically I send out a news letter to remind people to support the google ads. I do it myself also. I would like a breakdown of what I am supposed to have violated. You are required to give me a full explanation. This is just not correct what you are saying and I will not accept it. Regards JohnT (admin) www.designcrowd.com Freelancers Freedom >From Fees Hmm, how should I reply, should I tell him it was a joke, or should I spoof another email? Josh
Cmon...Spoof another. Take him to task big time on this: And warn him that you will be confiscating all earnings. If checks have been paid, they will be responsible for paying that money back
you guys should have tried to extort him, that would have been more entertaining tell hime to make a small payment every month, in order to keep things quiet
Hehe.. you all come up with what the email will say, if I write it, he will know from my typing that I'm not google Josh
