    CPALead.com = Allowing Fake Content Sites

    So you probably heard that if you have a fake content site you'll be removed from CPALead right? WRONG.


    One of CPALead's top earners secrets LEAKED!

    So you're probably thinking, just another noob ranting over nothing, go away.

    But now, I'm going to teach you how the famous "Jehn", creator of CPALeadHelp, makes his money.



    Firstly let me show you this site:
    http://www.vostuu.com/watch28015.html


    Seen it spammed before?

    Well firstly he's attempted to block BHW members visiting the site, and also had the script there for digitalpoint users before too.

    <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
    var refarray = new Array();
    refarray['hiderefer.org'] = "http://vostuu.com/r/out";
    for (var i in refarray) {
    if (document.referrer.indexOf(i) != -1) window.location.replace(refarray[i]);
    }
    </script>
    <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript">
    var refarray = new Array();
    refarray['blackhatworld.com'] = "http://vostuu.com/r/out";
    for (var i in refarray) {
    if (document.referrer.indexOf(i) != -1) window.location.replace(refarray[i]);
    }
    </script>
    Code (markup):

    Hmm.. Makes you wonder why?? Well we'll just ignore that for now.


    Now look at how many users are online:

    <li>Users currently streaming: <script type="text/javascript" src="http://st1.freeonlineusers.com/on4.php?id=181563"> </script>
    Code (markup):
    Currently for me it says "document.write('90');", so 90 users.. Nice job man, that's pretty nice right?



    So what's behind this amazing gateway??

    [​IMG]

    A linked image...

    Oh well.. Maybe it's linked to the stream he's offering!

    Oh wait no... http://www.vostuu.com/popupwatch.html

    Click the link on that page and you'll be taken to a random cpa offer.



    Never mind, maybe he's just advertising a picture?

    WRONG AGAIN. Look at this: http://www.google.com/#hl=en&source=hp&q=vostuu.com%2Fwatch28015.html&btnG=Google+Search&meta=&aq=0&oq=vostuu.com&fp=4aad3bc6abb93df5

    Oh wow, so he pretends he has films behind there?

    Hmmmm.. So what's all this then..

    Taken from - http://thesuperficial.com/2009/06/leighton_meester_has_a_sex_tap.php

    Simply search, http://www.vostuu.com/watch28015.html porn, into google and you'll find results.



    So this user is doing it, big woop. Why does this mean CPALead accept fake content sites?

    This user has been reported SEVERAL times to CPALead yet is not being removed despite it is against their terms of service, because apparently they don't care as long as the advertisers don't complain.

    This user is very well known under the name of Jehn. He's also admitted to own this website before, and it DEFINATELY, his. When asked he simply said it's just an old site he used to run but doesn't make any money from.
    Sure, you don't.


    What do you think? CPALead to crack down on these blackhatters?

    I am also at cpalead and fake content means warning or possible ban but probably they dont punish some who make BIG cash.

    If everyone should start publishing fake content then cpalead would die so i hope they start take take this serious.

    Someone from CPAlead staff ..please explain this?? why dont you ban this user or everyone who uses fake content??!

    He (Jehn) made a lot of money from his fake contents. So I guess they (CPALead) don't want to lose one of the biggest publisher, even it is a scam. Don't know what visitors thinks after he/she completed a long survey and got a beautiful image :D

    He got a huge traffic, because he advertised that his site has a newest movies that even not yet opened in theater. Funny!

    We clearly state that we do not allow fake content sites. If you are caught advertising fake content, your earnings will be revoked and your account will be terminated.

    We are in the process of reviewing this account. If they are found to be breaking our TOS, we will take action. However for privacy reasons, I cannot state the outcome.

    Ya maybe someone would should post screen shots of you in chat while Jehn was bragging about his earning from NEW MOON a week before it was released.

    Wonder what would happen if someone forwarded this thread, and screenshots of Troy, and Jeremy H in chats saying what Jehn does is his own business and people best stop talking about. To some of CPALeads advertisers.
    I think they would like to know how cpalead is allowing thier offers to promoted as sponsors for porn videos and fake content.

    I mean its not real hard to find out who thier advertisers are. ;)

    that was the downfall of perfecttracking.com. they lost all their advertisers because they promoted porn and fake content which are basically all the publishers that were kicked out of cpalead. im glad cpalead stays on top of this. thanks troy!

    I think everyone deserves a definitive answer on this issue, so we can all finally put it to rest.

    Yes, that is Jehn's site and you are aware of it simply by looking up his publisher ID to see who it is. He is also still doing it because I see his spam links on all the breaking news story sites as soon as they happen, so its not an "old" site.

    I've known about this for awhile and what he was doing, but I'm trying hard not to poke my nose in someone else's business, as we all do what we need to in order to survive this shitty economy.

    But I have to agree with MM in the cpalead chat that its hypocritical of Jehn to point out the fake sites of others when he's been doing it himself for over 8 months now. I've also seen you defend him when you KNOW what he's doing and then stated that fake content is ok as long as the advertiser doesn't complain.

    So, for the record, just to clarify for everyone, IS fake content still ok as long as there are no issues with the advertiser? Its ok if it is, but I'm sure we all want to know so that we aren't constantly debating this issue to death forever. Just make a stand one way or the other, please.

    A friend of mine told me Jehn got banned, and I was like woah that's a low blow from CPALead. Now that i've seen this thread, I see what he was actually doing. If it's stated in CPALead not to do this stuff, which it CLEARLY is, then someone like him obviously knows he's doing wrong, so I see justification in him being banned.

    I'm still loving CPALead, and they're doing a great job, toodles to Jehn it seems.

    Oh he wasn't banned. This issue has been brought up and report hundreds of time to troy over at cpalead. They are just saving face now and spreading a rumor that they banned him. Big lies but , be assured thier big advertisers will be made aware of this. ;)

    CPA Lead is not conspiring to support any fake sites. It is not only bad for them, but bad for the entire industry. You guys just need to think with your heads.

    CPAlead should explain this and other similar "allegations" that they let this person carry on for 8 months even though they were aware of his fake content and not just re-state their TOS.

    Thank you for reporting this site, In the future you can use our in house support system to report this site, Its a module on your dashboard "Contact CPALead". It will reduce the clutter on DP point with pointless topics, and theres already a thread here on DP for CPALead support too.. Thank you! :)
