SCAM AFFILIATE ALERT: carliaffiliate.com
We have received a report of another affiliate network using a stolen, illegally modified version of FSR: carliaffiliate.com. As a result, we highly recommend that you DO NOT JOIN THIS AFFILIATE! If they’re the sort of companies that will not hesitate to use illegal software to power their websites, they likely won’t think twice about withholding commissions to their publishers.
SCAM AFFILIATE ALERT: media4ads.com, leadsbuk.com
We had an interesting report come in regarding these two affiliate programs: media4ads.com and leadsbuk.com. It seems that these sites are using an illegally modified version of FSR to run the affiliate program. Impressive (and gives us a few ideas!), but illegal nonetheless.
As a result, we highly recommend you DO NOT JOIN THESE AFFILIATES! If they’re the sort of companies that will not hesitate to use illegal software to power their websites, they likely won’t think twice about withholding commissions to their publishers.
We will be investigating the matter and likely issuing DMCA takedown requests to their host soon.
