Is this illegal, what I'm doing? I think, no...

I s3ll my fans as ''fans are both, active and inanctive'' ....
 
I'm from Germany and on the internet there are shops even in my language...
 
Definition of illegal: Contrary to or forbidden by law, esp. criminal lawLast I checked, there's no laws in my country saying I'm not allowed to sell twitter fans and followers.. not sure where you're from.Can you even imagine getting arrested for selling twitter followers? That would be hilarious, but sad at the same time lol.
Of course there's no laws on selling "fans or followers". But selling ANYTHING that is fake as genuine is illegal.

I understand that; false advertising is illegal as you mentioned earlier. However, my response was directed at aashish_1792 who made a ridiculous claim that "selling fans adn followers is illegal"

That's like saying carrying a knife is illegal. Sure, it could be illegal in certain scenarios (and depending on country), but what if someone is carrying a knife in their kitchen lol.

that was all i meant just not exact enough

Just don't put anything. Fans are fans whether real or fake. Just don't advertise them as real if you want to avoid any possible legal actions.

I offer them as ''Worldwide Facebook Fans/Twitter Followers''...''Worldwide Youtube Subscribers''...''Youtube Views (over websites and mobile devices :D)'' ....and no ''real'' at all...so?:D

Or should I write ''Low Quality Followers'' and ''Low Retention views'''?:D
 
It depends on where you live...I heard in US there is a lot of a "good/bad faith" and crap like that in the legal system so lot of things can be become illegal (see what they did to poor dotcom). If you live in Europe then youre probably ok.
 
I live in Germany. I mean, I don't even need followers to promote my shop. Fake Retweets works fantastic. I get around 100 real per hours views on my shop...

Doing the same thing since 3 months, my accounts are still alive. You have to remember not to overdo it and everything will fall into place.
OP, pack it in and don't listen to those who haven't clue, let's go and earn some money und alles wird gut.
 
Danke ! What exactly do u mean with ''overdose''? Stop letting my posts get retweeted so often?:)
 
Just do it slowly, if you blast your link 100 times / min (no matter how.. tweets retweets) twitter will mark your URL as spam or will ban your account. Use URL shortener, google for short URL generater, make lots of different URLs and start to spam slowly with different accounts.
 
The only thing you could be in trouble for would be fraud, and even then you aren't really failing to deliver what you promised. And I seriously doubt anyone would be able to take that case to court and win it anyway...
 
It is not illegal, but you are breaking the contract you made with companies you signed up with, like Twitter. If you can live with it and they don't catch you, all is fine.
