CPA Lead is a big scam!!!

[Leadbolt]

not get caught?

naw man, you just need to play by the rules

1. your apps must meet fb complaince
2. you must advertise without ANY sort of Zynga logos, facebook logos, etc...
3. you must provide the end user with what you promised or close to it...

Need I remind you the hooters girl who got a TOY YODA instead of a TOYOTA ?

I'm sorry to say that I tried leadbolt for couple of days with a movie site and epc is way lover than other networks, i earn like 2x to 3x less than on competitors sites, my epc in only $0.04... and I have epc from $0.08 to $0.11 on other sites...

 

[nufaman]

Other sites won't even let you use a movie site with them, so your post is just bullshit

That's not true, there are plenty of cpa lead publishers still having movie sites, only they dont have premium surveys but even non-premium surveys are twice better that surveys at leadbolt, and dollarade allows movie sites.

 

[Jeremy_AM]

leadbolt and adscend seem to work well for movie site and facebook schemes and they encourage it leadbolt and adscsend are just smart cuz they found away to not get caught

we do not allow movie sites - that's an instant ban w/o pay
any promotion on social media sites must be in compliance with that sites' tos

 

[aznxmtg]

If you didn't do anything wrong they wouldn't ban you just talk to them.

Do you work for ads media?

 

[zenoGlitch]

Defiantly stay away from CPA lead, there are more horror stories per capita than any other... ads 4 dough are cool guys to work with and have great offers with well designed landing pages.

 

[raypest]

Yea cpa lead isn't good for black hat stuff they ban for that. ive heard horror stories to from other people who tried to run black hat campaigns with cpa lead.

but i think its only a matter of time before the other networks get compliance like cpa lead they are just not big like cpa lead yet

leadbolt does a great job with black hat and they even run banner ads here on this forum inviting the traffic

 

[matsta]

I think the main thing that everyone SHOULD be concerned about is that is Facebook lawyers approach CPA Lead regarding your sites, they have to provide your personal details (not 100% sure but was most likely a court agreement). So if your doing anything remotely blackhat, just be warned your personal information is not always safe...

 

[snoozebot]

I recently got accepted into their program. Now I'm not so sure if I'd want to start promoting. Man this sucks!

IT001 i am asking you to do me a favor... and the BHW community..
take a screenshot of the offers you are running...
if dollarade is being stupid enough to put a mobile offer up on a movie site, then you will sooner or later MISS a very large payment, just like happened at *******

all of the advertisers who are running on Leadbolt know what they are getting... that 0.04 you earned with us was legit and in accordance with the advertisers.

if i were you i'd get on net-1 terms with dollarade

That's not true, there are plenty of cpa lead publishers still having movie sites, only they dont have premium surveys but even non-premium surveys are twice better that surveys at leadbolt, and dollarade allows movie sites.

 

[adsense]

stop using c p a l e a d and move on to other networks.
my best advice to you, and everyone.

They're good as long as you have real content. They got a little carried away by the whole FB moneymaking train, figured if anything, they wouldn't be punished for it. And they didn't. Once the C&D's started rolling in they had a good reason to not pay out some affiliates/and or ban them, even suggesting you could just sign up again, if you'd behave this time Since it has always been forbidden by their TOS, they had every right to do what they did. It was unethical to say the least, but I guess you can say the same about BH. They decided to distantiate themselves from BH/spam if they wanted to stay in business. And they still are. Most people are still doing high figures BH with them, and they know now how not to screw up.. play the game smart or be left behind. BTW this 'scam company' has paid me over $15k, and I'm sure a lot more to some of you. You just got caught while thinking you were unbeatable.

Agreed with this. Back then it wasn't so strict and people were getting away with all sorts of things outside of the TOS. Then a huge wave of new members and a lot of newbies started to jump in. Movie site niche went down the drain and the facebook moneymaking train. I was banking on facebook but I knew this whole thing would collapse when every single day people kept talking about how to start making money in facebook.

So Adscend, I see all these publishers cleaning house on Leadbolt with Facebook traffic. I looked up some referral analytics and the majority of their traffic is movie/tv show websites and Facebook viral pages. I have spoke to several former publishers at CPA /l3ad and they use methods like click jacking, among other spam methods. I see that 90% of Adscend's traffic are from the same methods.

Jeremy from Adscend, do you guys allow these viral methods for FB traffic? Are you guys at all worried that FB is currently suing CPA l3ad's CTO Jason Swan, and Maxbounty? Are you worried they will do the same to you? You do know how your publishers are suddenly going from zero traffic to hundreds of thousands of clicks overnight, right? Its not possible to do this legally is there? If so, please enlighten me.

I'm really a noob to the FB stuff, but I would love to get out of the movie niche, as it seems to be drying up. FB is where its at, and Leadbolt and Adscend are making sh!t loads of money on this stuff. I can post referral analytics reports on here to show any of you if you want to see proof. Everyone should be getting in on this, and I don't want to get jacked for thousands of dollars again like CPA l3ad did to me.

Jeremy from Adscend, Mike from Leadbolt, please enlighten me if you allow this? I could hire a few programmers and drive tons of traffic very quickly.

 

[Checkmate]

Lead bolt allows it but if course your page must be reviewed first before the gateway goes live.

As for Adscend I heard you must comply with FB's TOS which means no spamming, fake accounts etc so good luck with that lol

i lol when i see this kind of post...

 

[Grizzy]

@IStealMovies you need to lookup the word 'discreet' in the dictionary..

 

[mikeycrashoverride]

I am not sure why discretion is too necessary? This is BHW isn't it? If we cannot feel safe here where can we feel safe. Companies like these troll these posts all day long.. most of this information is quite available anywhere really. It's nice to have someone stand up amongst our crowd and ask some bold questions. [istealmovies] cheers and kudos.. now I wait anxiously with my fellow comrades to hear what they have to say. I have been awaiting this.. I also am in search of where to really go with my traffic these days. This feud has really dampened my eagerness to earn with these companies.. I mean really.. who's got it and who doesn't? That's the question on my mind. Any others?
