    Beware, there are these guys that are front ending lead pages and then they "subscribe" you to their affiliate programs.

    So the scenario is this: Customer clicks your link, gets to this landing page. Fill out form. You get redirected to a completely unrelated offer.

    Then, you're on their list and they have basically signed you up to a zillion other affiliate programs, which they get credit for, but you (as the afiliate) don't.

    Pretty sneaky and cheesy.

    The offer was a payday loan thing. The second page after submitting the form, car loan. IMHO unrelated. Especially since the program offer stipulates you only get paid after a second page submit. bs in my opinion.

    I know which offer you are talking about. That offer got activated two days ago and while I was on the phone with my AM, he told me that it "just got in" and I should run it. That offer has a popup after you fill in your primary info. That is called co-registration and while I was pissed, my AM didn't like it either.

    Azoogle had discontinued all their payday loan offers, but I am not sure why they've started to bring in more payday loan offers. Weird.

    I know, that is complete BS. I don't promote any offer that has co-registration. I wish that advertiser good luck in recruiting super affiliates.
