Why waste your time, and risk prison, signing up to promote a program and then generate phony sales with either stolen credit cards or empty pre-paid cards? Do you honestly think this will work? Do you think sales won't be verified by a simple phone call? Do you think companies have an auto-responder type program thats tied to a checking account that will pay you the instant somebody completes a sale?(especially brand new affiliates!) Do you have a broadband connection in your tin shack, hate your life, and think trying to scam people is effective way to spend your day? Please take note that all instances of credit card fraud are reported to the proper authorities (be they U.S. or Interpol) and I sincerely hope that those involved are imprisoned.(and that bad things happen to them there...)
There will always be a percentage of affiliates who are: A. Dumb B. Think they can get over. C. Have gotten over in the past. so, they do it. Just another group of "bad apple" affiliates that give affiliate marketing a bad name. Jim
It's sort of like that moment in catch me if you can... The dad tells his son, you're great at what you do but you could have been great at anything. Affiliate marketing is a challange but fun to master. If you have to cheat to get paid, invest in mastering the skill instead; the payoff and risks will make your effort worth it.
