    I bought a site from a user from this forum, he showed me fake pics showing traffic and adsense earnings, now that i have the site, it's very far away from the stats he showed me, besides negative rating, what else can i do against him ?

    Well then I'm afraid there's nothing you can do, unless your willing to track him down and contact the authorities.

    Be more aware next time.

    You would have to contact DP staff directly to discuss that option.

    I'm sorry to hear this. Just think of it as an 'investment' to experience.

    what do you mean by different.. how different the stats are? you must take into account that +-25% is natural over a short period

    OP has 14 posts, its not rocket science figuring out who they are talking about.

    wZZ, leave negative iTrader if your dis-satisfied. thats about all you can do. practice due diligence in the future.

    if I have a site and I promote it daily on twitter I will have 100 visits daily
    if I sell it to you you will probably get 20 visits daily since no promotion is being made. Traffic is not constant by definition. I'm not sure if this was your case (most probably not) but it was just an example to see numbers are just numbers. This happens because traffic details are usually very primitive among sellers. Hopefully your stats will increase in time.
