Hi I have a question.
I promote this product vendor: ALIVEFALL , I test my cookie id but still see some affiliate id show up on add to the cart page. I don't know how they do that.
Here are their website: https://aliveafterfall.org
 
I just found they create an invisible popup on the user's browser to place your affiliate cookie without the user knowing when use click adds to cart. Is this legal?
 
It sounds like cookie stuffing, which is not legal of course.
 
I had to create a account to chime in on this. I was promoting alivefall about a year ago and I caught them stealing affiliate sales using some sneaky tactics on their backend to switch out your affiliate link for affiliates they setup so they get 100% of the sale.

To give an example I would send 7000 visitors one day and earn $700 then send the same traffic the next day and earn $300 with about the same order form clicks. Then it would go to zero dollars with the same traffic and order form clicks. I could only top out at $1200 - $1700 a week. Most days with the same traffic I would earn $0 a day.

I found this odd and caught what they were doing and recorded it to show Clickbank the fraud that was happening. I sent it to Clickbank and after 2 days Clickbank banned me. Never heard from them again after multiple emails.

Alivefall is still going it looks like, and doing the same thing, stealing affiliate sales and Clickbank protects them.

I have a similar experience. The traffic I sent generated tens of thousands of dollars within the first two years; but as time passes, I found I just could make hundreds of dollars within the next few years, even though I keep sending traffic to the same product.

I didn’t know what the problem was; I tested the affiliate link and clicked the “Add To Cart” button for many times. It seemed quite normal; so I just let it go without complaining to CB. I just found that the last 500,000+ views (traffic is targeted, and most traffic is from the US) just generated several sales.

More absurdly, I am still promoting that product, and it still converts; promoting that product is better than nothing; after all, I can not find the alternative one in Clickbank. And I am also promoting another marriage-saving program that was caught rewriting an affiliate ID when the order form is submitted. As an affiliate, I feel helpless about this situation.
 
We need to have a list of bad vendor. They steal our money and time.
