Fighting
Giveaway Fraud
It
was too little, too late when we
heard that Reed Floren and Alan
Magliocca decided they were going
to try to do something about the
massive fraud in their Giveaway
Event.
So
they are going to run a script that
will down grade those JV Partners
whom did not have referred
contributors whom submitted a gift
..... BFD
It
may have changed the numbers
DRASTICALLY for the event - but it
truly did not punish the frauds to
begin with.
and
what took them so long to notice
that fraud was occurring?
The
signs were written all over the
wall in spot lights!
What should
have happened, because the
particular script they are running
tracks IP's, is that everyone
caught with signups from the same
IP should have been permanently
burned and thrown from the
event.
All
that is happening though is that
their contributor referrals are
turned into member referrals and
the staggering numbers are still a
fraud - they just transferred the
numbers from contributors to
members.
Once again BFD!
The numbers whether or not
contributors or members are a
fraud.
Even though we
ourselves have in the past been
running Giveaway Manager 2 which
does not have IP tracking - a quick
look at the database and using a
little common sense makes the task
of spotting fraud simple a little
more difficult - and with IP
Tracking it should be a super
simple breeze!
But
noooooo ..... these self proclaimed
Guru's want to not clean up the
event like they should have, and
claim the thousands of frauds that
are present as Members .....
irrelevant if contributors or
members - they are fraud!
What do you
want to bet they use the numbers
from this event to promote how
great their events are the next
time they host an event?
Now
lets see whom is really paying
attention and reading our
newsletters .....
As
mentioned earlier we have been
running Giveaway Manager 2 for
years and popping fraudsters
without IP Tracking.
Well I have got
news for the few that are honest
and paying attention which
obviously Bob's are :-) We
purchased Scott Cases Ultimate JV
Giveaway Script and plan on running
our Thanks for Giving Giveaway on
it ..... testing it for accuracy
before we put big contest money on
it.
So
here is the heads up ..... if you
are reading this - I personally
invite you to participate in this
event keeping in mind I do not want
the promo blitz for JV
Partners/Contributors to happen no
earlier then Thursday 09/30/10 at
9:00 AM EST - that's Eastern
Standard Time US
Here is a clock preprogrammed
with some time zones so there are
no excuses and
here is the event link
:-)
