Should FEB stop paying on multiple signs?
 

FEB/FTC are one of the few free email collection programs out there that actually pay for multiple signs. Ie., email1 already joined site1, affiliate gets paid an extra $1 for every other site email1 joins. Hence if email1 joins five sites, affiliate gets paid $5

This attracts cheaterz.

Also, you guys may want to run PROXYGUARD on your confirm pages so that users coming from non approved countries can't get confirmed or at least the affiliate doesn't get paid.

Just my :2 cents:

also, Proxyguard prevents fake sign ups coming from authorized countries as well.

Who put you in a position to judge how other companys do business? Get a clue. Obviously it's working for them and I am sure they have their own security setup.

Did I step on your tail? hehehehe

Nah Im just having a mood. :321GFY

Any other opinions on this? Doing this will probably make FEB even more profitable.

Plus they need to redirect their foreign traffic :)

Sure, it will make them more profitable when all of the webmasters who use them because of this feature stop sending traffic.

Which feature? the multiple join? the no foreign redirection?

Freepassbucks has these anti cheater measures and they're doing fine. I wouldn't want FEB to be overrun by cheaterz and another good program goes down.

Think outside yourself once in a while, buddy.

Has nothing to do with cheaters. They have fraud measures like anyone else. If not it's their fault.

These are really valuable insights.

Since Boss Hawg just fell off the turnip truck yesterday, I am sure he has never considered the things you suggest.

You should let him know immediately so he can adjust his business plan accordingly.

To the Hawgs :glugglug

Oh okay, Einstein, as if there's a lot of money to be made from non redirected EU/US/CAN traffic. Plus, wait, there's a fucking gold mine in letting people get paid for multiple sign ups with 1 email. Finally, its a Warren Buffet move to allow proxy based free emails to do signups.

Good thing you aren't in Alan Greenspan's shoes... we'd be fuqqed right now if you were

I think they should continue in this way. I dont see good reasons to stop it. :thumbsup

insite adult pays on multiple signups but they always forget to send the check so they really dont pay on any signups

A good example of an almost cheater-proof email system is CECASH's email programs.

As was said earlier, apparently how they run their program is working just fine. They have been around forever and are not a here today gone tomorrow couponbucks type of operation.

BTW how do you know they allow proxy signups?

We are analyzing a whole different set of things for our email program and we'll be making many changes in the coming v2... Its been very delayed due to the problems with delivering into the big 3 companies (yahoo, hotmail and aol)... We we're hoping to raise payouts, but with all the problems with delivery that doesn't seem feasible.. However we plan to implement quite a few other changes and add more features...

look forward to v.2 and the new changes at FreeEzineBucks :)

Good to hear, BossHawg. The fact that half if not more of your mailers are filtered out by the big 3 portals is reason enough to beef up the anti-fraud measures. Best of luck with the changes!

do you know this because you attempted to cheat them?

No:321GFY Just looking at the way they are set up.
