How can I cheat you? Let me count the ways......

The boards are always roaring wih talk of shaving. Personally, I think there's a lot of shaving going on, but as the name implies... it's not "slicing" .... it's "shaving". And while it is cheating, I think that on a percentage basis it's not the highest thing on the list for webmasters to be worrying about. It's not like the "good old days" where sites would just turn the counter off for half a day or so (gee...... who ever did that?). It's a little cheat that shoudln't even be noticable (if anyone can notice YOU'RE SHAVING TOO HARD ;) ). But there are LOTS of other things which are going on all over the place which can do some real damage.

One example is when you see an email box on the page where you send traffic to so that the site can "steal" your email list.

So, my question is: what ways to cheat do you guys see being used out there, which are the most prevalent, and which one's do you think actually are the most offensive and/or do the most damage?
