Do any of the big 4free email programs block PROXIES?
 

Well they should cuz

Proxies PLUS free email accounts = BANKRUPTCY for sponsors ?

shhhhhhhh don't bring this shit up you have no idea how many people on this board pay their rent this way...

:1orglaugh What a sad way to pay rent. :(

Seriously, they should use PROXYGUARD or even a free proxy list from AIS or whatever.:2 cents:

Maybe they should also redirect foreign traffic and also cut down on multiple site signups.:2 cents:

Bump

done, done and done.

Free Ezine Bucks and the big guys should do this as well.

i was speaking on behalf of the majority of 4free programs.

No they don't... there's still some holes. :(

Ack.. this guy is ruining our scam!

Just trying to preserve the financial viability of programs so they don't get ruined for honest webmasters.

yes but u all forgot about those guys that RUN BIG ASS FTP SITES are require people to enter their e-mail in order to get access to their FTP ARCHIVES !!!!!


:1orglaugh

How is this related? Unless they trick people with the form to enter the post info into the sponsor's form which is pretty hard to do since many programs don't allow remote boxes.

Certain ISPS use internal proxies, so there will be pros and cons.
AOL is one of these isps.

He means those guys aren't even interested in porn. They signup just to get access to the FTP. They create a new free email. The FTP site tells them to confirm it. In the confirmation letter 3rd word is the password for FTP etc.

The guy running the site gets an email signup. The people get whatever software is in the FTP. Download is at an extremely slow speed. So they change the password 2-3 days later. They change the email program they're using so the signups are counted again... etc.

lol what are you talking about? :1orglaugh

Okay. Thanks for explaining. Sounds very familiar to the old pay per click scams from a while back.

LOL, looks like the 4free email sites are slowly building a database of worthless emails.

now with the rise of SP2 blocking popups, we'll probably see many more programs lowering payouts (like FEB) or shutting down.

There's a way to prevent email fraud as perpetrated by FTP operators... the only question is... are Programs willing to try it?

oh

There are easy ways to prevent this fraud. Ones that even sidestep automated scripts.

Thank u for explaining it, i was too tired to explain it anyways hehe

The standards should be


1) Redirect foreign traffic (non UK, non US, non AU, non CAN, non EU)

2) Use proxy detection system

3) Use cookie redundancy tracking

4) Use login detection

Also, end reliance on annoying popups on exit cuz these may be on the way out after SP2 hits wide installation.
