GFY judge and jury?
 

here is the situation....

some crack head in epic mail decided to send us thousands of hotmail addresses in the epic mail program....

so obvoisly this isnt genral traffic, this is him mailing hotmail addresses getting them to optin to our list...

now a smart guy would wonder...

why is he sending them to a .75 program and not sending them to a $30 a join program right?

i would think because these emails are complete shit and they dont buy anything...


so what do i do?

you make the call...

boot him, unless you can make money off emails

Contact him
get the whole story
Cancel his account and send me 50% of the money regardless of his response.

Is he sending the traffic from a specific site, or is he spamming linkcodes?

Do you have individual IPs for each address?

we no longer give credit on hotmail..
slight oversight on my part...

but anyone who mailes knows hotmail is a nightmare to mail to.. and are useless to me.. they ban ip's after 2 complaints.

i want to pay the guy, but not 100%.. whats fair?

im white listed at yahoo and aol

so those are not an issue

msn and hotmail are complete junk... i just assume deelte the addresses than fuck with them...

so i can pay him 7k and make 0.00

or i can pay him half and try and remain business savy and maintain a relationship on a civil level rather than getting slammed all over the boards or whatever may happen...

Did he break any rules?

are you making money off of it /

Yeah pay him half if he sent a bunch of shit

Claim you had another *Glitch* and boot his ass by mistake and keep all his current earnings ...

good luck with that

pay it full
i think its the price to learn to not accept hotmail adress if you cant mail them :P :Graucho

he isnt scamming me... all unique ip's

but clearly a stupid decision i would think if he didnt know the emaisl were useless...
this is the obvious question..

why send to a .75 program and not to a pps program paying $30 a join? if the emails are good, and he can get into hotmail np.. then why the hells end to a .75 program...

seems to me like he knew they were complete crap and tried to pass them off on us

Pay him and

in all honesty.. no. he didnt.. but there is clearly something fishy about his intentions here....

pay me 100%

if he dont break the rules you cant change the rules after that
i mean you can, but after had pay him

look, im trying to be reasonable here and not just kill his acct and move on.. thats bull shit and i am not like that...

he didnt scam us. he sint a scammer. i think a bit dishonest tho.. what he did makes no sense.. im asking for real advice here.. im new to the double optin game

hotmail has some dam good filters...

i have already taken this point into account..

but i can NOT ignore the fact he clearly sent us crap emails knowing they are worthless.. or he would have mailed paysites and made 10 times more.

I'd talk 2 him and tell him about hotmail. offer him 15% see what he thinks you can always go up don't start out 2 high though.

one possible explanation
he is spamming hotmail account and use a bp hosting
those who sign-up throught are legit, but you cant mail into hotmail
maybe check the referrer and it might explain you everything
or better, ask him is apache log to be paid

if he broke no rules, and the homail addresses are legit, i think you need to pay him. then change your script so that hotmail addresses arent accepted and let your affiliates know. when do you credit to the affiliate, when the address is entered, or when they click on a confirm link in the email?

Just pay me. I had my entire Church group join from their hotmail accounts. :(

spammers and programs that spam are bad.

when the member logs into the members area is when affiliates get credit...

i think i have it worked out with him...

50% payment ($3500)
and he gets all our hotmails and msn's and mails us with them and gets paid $25 a join

sounds fair doesnt it?

sleaxy they are double optins through epic mail.. completely legal and legit mailing... no spam here

Pay him Then Change the rules after that.


Most rules are written in blood. :2 cents:

what the fuck "some crack head in epic mail decided to send us thousands of hotmail addresses in the epic mail program....

so obvoisly this isnt genral traffic, this is him mailing hotmail addresses getting them to optin to our list..."


doesn't sound like they are OPTED IN to me...... spamming to opt in isn't what opt in email programs are supposed to be.

what about my posts are you not getting?

yea rules are rules i totally agree. but someone tries to decieve you knowing something is worthless and sends it to you.. there is an ethics issue that comes up.

just call him a ******,jew, or a sheep like usual.
bla bla bla

what the fuck? it's YOUR mistake and you want to take HIS money? pay the man and make it a point that hotmail is not accepted. that is the right thing to do.

well there have been 0 complaints.. so they must have been opted in... most lilely just spammed to death over and over and over making them worthless....

hey doofus...

are you not reading things clearly?

im hearing both sides here and going to base my decission off of that.

what was my mistake? not knowing someone was going to send a ton of crap emails into my program?

yea i saw that a mile away and planned on this happening... he got caught and i am still willing to work it out with him.

dont try and bash me for trying todo the right thing

jerkoff

it's your fault that you did not stop him after a couple hundred emails. it's your fault he doesn't know hotmail is not allowed. this is your program, not his. pay the man, asshole.

ask for the stats and logs of the site sending the mails.

traffic and logs is the only way you can figure it out.


Did all the emails he sent confirm?

you dont get it.

as i have stated before.. yes they confirmed thats not the point

every single email was from hotmail

ahh fuck it

im not going to explain this again.. reread the thread please

..Hey at least he's getting a chance, most affiliate programs will just term without notice nor payment.

Now, thats my :2 cents:

$7k worth of hotmail addresses, all confirmed, all unique IPs. you cannot sell to hotmail addresses so you don't want to pay him. what am I missing?

my balls itch

well this explains why my referral bonus was so damn high the last few days!

no biggie, wasnt your fault.. youll get paid for the referals

YOU BETTER KEEP ACCEPTING AOL'S

:glugglug

i say pay him 100%. if i followed the rules and got fucked out of my $ i would be pissed. tell him that his hotmail emails are done though.

aol's np

we are white listed there and love aol

your no longer accepting hotmails... since when?

you see, this is why pimpdog is a superstar.
