Here's the problem! The top whale is NOT a whale, it's a top THIEF. Get that account shut down and you'll see an increased number of affiliates making sales and the sponsor will get their 100% of their direct sales without having to pay commissions. Sponsor loses nothing, affiliates do.

It's a tough problem w/no easy solution however I firmly believe that a very important step towards resolution IS surfer education and not just the "good will" of affiliate programs to put systems in place to detect and terminate accounts - all of which i applaud btw. This method of revenue generation is very difficult to detect however.

I don't disagree that surfers need to be educated, however, it's not our job and it's way beyond our control. It won't stop the money that funds the scums and that's where the door has to close first...
