A few months ago, I bid on an ebay auction for 9 million adult hits and won. Never thought I would get that many, but what the hell, so I did all the setup steps, although they were wholy incomplete and got less than 5 referrals to date. No biggie, I got ripped because I didn't do my research. I should have known because he hid his bidders and comments. Even tried to talk to the guy about it but he didn't care.
I was bored at work today so thought I would find out if that guy was still at it. Here are his current auctions:

Yep, so I looked at his completed items:

This guy has banked about $4,000 (paste into excel and add colums) in 1 month selling totally bogus advertising hits on a site that is fed chinese traffic. Unbelievable!!
Lesson = No morals or ethics, and very eloquent marketing text that ultimately promises the world but no guarantees = $4,000 income a month.
Sometimes it absolutely sucks to have a conscience.
