They are using GEO skimming. You set up your account in New York, and they skim sales in other States, Canada, Europe, etc, no way of testing...and when you have a buddy in Germany that does a test for you, and the sale goes thru and you don't get credit...After you complain they either say "it was a mistake" or they just close your account out for complaining. Nothing you can do.
The skim programs are designed to be 100 steps in front of you so if there is any investigation, they can simply wipe you out with no trace, or quickly dissolve the skim program so they look clean. Impossible to investigate and costly to sue, so nobody does it. They just think like all of us do, "oh, tough market, sales are so slow right now." LOL Sales have never slowed down, just the skimming and stealing has increased annually to the point where the market appears to be "dead" when fact, the profits are becoming more and more isolated to webmasters "in the know." Like all economies, eventually a small percentage owns and controls the market. Thieves are rampant in the adult business. All unregulated and hard to prove in court. A quick change here, and a quick delete there, and presto...your sales and numbers are gone.
So we have to keep quite and just be lucky they release the classic amount of 8 to 10 sales per year to keep those old affiliate links you posted years ago, alive.
