[Forest]

Ibill? Epass? Babenet? There have been so many

[CaptainHowdy]

Epassporte was a certifiable pandemonium . . .

[TheLegacy]

DeeCash pre-checked cross sales.

Sales dropped for a year after that happened!

[Simon Arthur]

Can you give me more details?

[blackmonsters]

pre-checked cross sales.

People should have gone to prison for that shit.

And people wonder why governments are attacking online porn.
How many government officials had to do charge backs for their own porn signups?

That was a scam on the surfer and everyone was doing it. I’m taking scam on the industry.

[fuzebox]

Prechecked cross sales built this industry. Adult companies were running xsales a decade before Deecash even started.

Most people in this thread sent (and still send) traffic to companies that do it. If you sell ads, that is where a lot of the revenue comes from.

That only affected a handful of people he fucked over. For the industry as a whole maybe epass and ibill tied.

Only way programs could pay out those huge numbers. I avg 125.00 on a dating joint in 2008. No other way to make that back on a avg 45 day membership without them.

And how much money was made from the Ibill list after they were gone?

I had a guy track me down through one of my watermarked domains I was using to promote DeeCash and he threatened my life because his first charge on his $1 trial was something insane like $400 he told me. I can't remember it was so long ago.

From my hazy memory, the way this was different was that the prices of the cross sale were in super fine print and were absolutely massive in price. He was banging the credit cards from overseas and just blatantly ripping people off. Do you remember how it went down? It was so long ago, like 2006 I think? Fucking sales tanked for a long time on galleries after that. It was massively noticible.

cross sales

Pre-checked cross sales to me was a way to earn money from the scammers who did Fraudulent chargebacks that would cost three times the actual sale

... by 2015, the company had filed 20 to 30 lawsuits.[4][5]

Uhhh I know companies that file like 200 a month.

But that aside, how is someone trying to protect their assets, an adult industry scam?

I mean the first one that comes to mind would be Vixen. There are two others that are well that are just as litigious to protect their copyrights.

[natkejs]

lost a few bucks with globill, but other than that never been scammed in the industry.

epass comes to mind though, I remember some dude killing himself which came off as pretty hardcore in our little industry back then.

Did you know that his site after deecash was nomorerack.com ? Now it’s just full of after pics of top surgeries

[EddyTheDog]

As we are talking pre-checked sales then you have to talk about 12Clicks - That guy is a piece of work - I remember once there was a hidden pre-checked cross sale on a porn site for a children's gaming site - lol...

Sorry Forest - I know that wasn't the question - It's just that story always makes me laugh.....

I remember a story about Dee. When he wanted to travel and go gambling he would bang cards for 1.00 for his gambling money. Millions 😂😂

He paid to have former president Bush at some event in Canada.

I literally got harassing phone calls in the middle of the night from some dude in the USA who thought I had scammed him and he said he was going to fly to Canada and get me. He calmed down eventually and realized it wasn't me. Also had a bunch of angry emails over at goldgalleries.com and platinumgalleries.com from surfers because my whois was public.

Hate to stereotype but literally every event in my life where someone got scammed it has involved an Indian person! My Indian landlord tried to scam me just this summer when his phone was hacked and my etransfer for rent was intercepted by a "hacker" and then when I told him, "sorry, that's on you and your phone security" he told me "the money never was in my bank account, this is a you problem!" Like somehow his phone being hacked and the thief knowing the landlord well enough to guess the password is my fault.

Holy fuck, then when I worked managing a pallet yard before COVID, an Indian guy gave us a fake bank draft that looked 100% real to my boss and he foolishly accepted it without going to the bank first. Never saw or heard from them again, $20,000+ dollar load of repaired pallets vanished! Then back in like 2014-2015, I had been working on a compact automatic joint-roller the size of a like a portable hard disk drive... and the small devices engineer I hired with a friend took off with the seed money to build the first prototype, like $1200!

But hey... butter chicken is soooooo good... I don't actually mind. You take the Ws with the Ls in life.

Do you know of the other companies at all? I know X-art was doing a lot of lawsuits at one point.

SOMEBODY WENT THERE!!! This was like THE big scam Adult Video News was covering when I worked at AVN.

And it came up as a red flag when Sherry and I got suckered into working with an "Adult Investment" guy. Somehow Acacia came up in conversation and kinda fondly, he was like "oh yeah, I knew that guy..."

We should have dropped the SOB like a hot rock right there but it was September of 2008 and things were really tight. Overlooking that and a couple of other red flags almost cost us the house too. January 2009 I still remember the bastard on the phone screaming in panic for Sherry and I keep working for him.

Those fuckers sent me a demand for money when the only website I had was my cat's, and all the content on the site was still images. Their patent was a joke, and eventually invalidated.

[Huggles]

Acacia... were those the people who claimed to have the patent on streaming or hosting video or something? I think I remember they emailed me...

[Rochard]

Paul and I were friends but that was some funny shit. 😂😂

I never liked Paul and never liked his content. We had never met until years after the Magic Join links. We met up in Prague; The only mail reason he attended was to sit down with me. He was a nice enough guy I guess.

RIP.

It was called Acacia, btw.

What about Zango

Hands down children! The biggest scam in adult was not a person , or a company, nor was it a sketchy billing procedure.

The biggest scam in adult history was a dental procedure.

Chris Malik scammed a NASA scientist., the Webmaster community, and many Hollywood stars. His secret weapon was his flaming white veneers. It transfixed you sheep like high beams transfix a deer.

I swear to God, I saw him driving his BMW in Marina del Rey and I recognized him by his teeth from a good distance away.
