Sup guys. Just bought a hosting plan from hostgator. Everything went great but after a few hours I got this mail from them:
Okay, I sent them my photo ID and credit card. Now i'm waiting for their response. Does this usually happen for all hostgator customers? Or did they find out that my websites contain fake stuff like itunes gift codes and sh!t like that?... Do they allow landing pages that have fake stuff? What's your experience with Hostgator + PPD / CPA fake niches?
Thanks.
