cookie stuffing doesn't pay

and Abhijit and Gowndamani are sad today.

greed doesnt pay out - they should have stopped after 5 or 10 million. still enough for a comfortable life

hes going to jail over cookie stuffing? something doesnt seem right about that

20 million dollars in cookie stuffing.

weren't you just sucking the cocks of the biggest criminals in the adult business looking for some work?

fuck this industry is full of hipocrites.

The wire fraud charges seem kind of odd. I can see the civil suit for sure, the criminal suit I'm kind of confused about. Is there a precedent for this?

yeah:

"The legal criteria for wire fraud was established not on money (commissions) being transferred over the wires, but because of transmission of the tracking cookie between states and internationally."

Interesting read.

This has been going back and forth in the media and on boards for years. Looks like the chicken has come home to roost.

Yeh, I saw that, it just seems strange to me.

Nice!

Between 2006 and June 2007, Shawn Hogan (Digital Point Solutions) earned approximately $15.5 million in commissions from eBay. Hogan was eBay’s number one affiliate.

Between 2006 and June 2007, Dunning (Kessler’s Flying Circus) earned approximately $5.3 million in commissions from eBay. Dunning was eBay’s number two affiliate.

In the end they alwaYs get caught. Crime doesn't pay.

Be interesting to know how much more they were making than affiliates #3~#10

So a dude makes 15 mill in commission from eBay and eBay doesn't wonder where it's coming from?

do you have an idea how many producers on here have been shooting for Brazzers over the years? do you really expect that anyone would turn a company like that away when they ask you to shoot for them and pay for it? grow up. :2 cents:

damn, that took some balls, trying to fuck ebay out of 20 million? wtf were they thinking?

dumb fucks.. i woulda done it low key..10k/month steady & nobody will know

there's another big forum that went into a panic mode a few months ago, but it seems that the dp guys really went overboard

holy moly is that a filthy thing to do to your members

Serves them right :2 cents:

You noticed!

So did I!

;)

Sally.

Every crime committed over a transmittal system can be wire fraud.

What do you think the internet is?

That's only the ebay earnings, wonder what they made with CJ.

that's funny stuff

lol. I was thinking the exact same thing.

god, i hate that forum. Has their buy/sell section ever seen even a sniff of anything legal? It must be the No'1 hangout for site scrapers.

looks like the scum at DP goes all the way to the top.

20mil on cookie stuffing...
damn....

A series of tubes? Tubes aren't usually made of wire. :1orglaugh

He never looked like a straight shooter to me.

Another forum owner was doing it? What are the initials of said forum?

who gives a shit I hope they rot in hell

seriously the exploiters of the proletariat can get raped in prison for all I care

Let's guess the outcome! I'm guessing probation and paying $1 mil in fines.

Dp sucks and has for a while. Bunch of lame ass Indian programmers who wanna make a quick buck.

Yeah DP blows sheep cocks!

That guy has the dumbest fucking tattoo on earth:

It would be a decent forum if they would ban the Indians. That region of the world is an entire decade behind us in online skills development.

The clincher for me was when I looked at their website critiquing sub-forum and an Indian posted a header that looked like he went to Archive.org and ripped it from a site dating to 1996 and posted it for review. What followed was a full two pages of his fellow Indians drooling over his POS work.

Like I say, they are a decade behind us.

Nah. Not with that kind of money. If they let them cop a plea deal, I say they get between 3-5 yrs and forfeiture of all assets.

Feds don't cut no sweatheart deals like that unless you're talking about some little old lady that took 50 grand from a bank she worked at. These guys stole 15 mill- they will do hard time.

shoemoney has posted in the pass his google checks .. so yes, they made way more .

eBay would have payed that money to other affiliates, so either way they would have payed that money out, so maybe they simply don't cared who gets it :)

The bottom line on this matter is that cookie stuffing, although easy and profitable is fraud, puely and simply. Anyone who has hung around the 'net for a while knew this was going to come from one quarter or the next. The DP guys are shit-for-brains! Anyone who had defrauded a company as large as eBay out of that kind of money should have long ago transferred the funds out of the USA and been living in a country without extradition for white-collar crimes by now.

Idiots.

Sally.

it totally destroys trust in their affiliate system and does or did affect future earnings.

Bunch of freaks...

Just read this in another forum. Why didn't they stop or at least move their asses away offshore?

Fucking retards

their response. ebay made him do it:

Whole thing seems to be saying they forced him to do it and he didn't want to carry on but they wouldn't let him stop :1orglaugh
