Shit List against @Leader777

Here's the BST in question: https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/get-traffic-that-convert-for-amazon-affiliate-autopilot.1414424/

I've informed the seller that he will be shitlisted soon:



Payment receipt:



He's offering a service to drive leads to customers' Amazon Associates Accounts through the Bounty program.

He asked me to place a banner on my site and took the link.

I paid $20 and got $120 in my Amazon account within 24 hours.

It sounded too good to be true as I had a feeling that this could get my account terminated:


Even he has been mentioning the same on his BST as well that his accounts never got banned so this is a safe method.

I asked him the source of his traffic and this is what he mentions:



He clearly mentioned TWITTER

My account got terminated by Amazon:



It clearly mentions he uses bots or fake emails to abuse the system.

So, there is no genuine Twitter promo, it's system abuse that he is selling.

I want a refund.

For the Amazon account that I lost permanently, I hope his BST gets removed and his BHW account gets permanently banned so that he doesn't come up with such services to scam more people

I thought there would be a decision after 24 hours

Also, he's constantly online on Skype but not responding:

It is not unreasonable to give him some time to respond as he has not been on the forum.

I could care less that he is active on Skype... that is not a BHW concern.

@BassTrackerBoats, is there any maximum time period we have to wait?

I posted my review on his BST on Wednesday last week: https://www.blackhatworld.com/seo/g...zon-affiliate-autopilot.1414424/post-15426338

I clearly mentioned in it that I need my refund or I will shitlist him.

He last logged in on BHW on Thursday, which means he's aware of the situation.

There is a possibility that he could be away intentionally.

I keep mentioning that he's active on Skype because sellers operate their business through Skype. If he's active there, that means he's not genuinely off-the-grid. Maybe he is just trying to avoid the situation as long as he can.

If that's the case, there has to be a maximum wait time. It's been more than 48 hours now.

And there is a possibility that he has been not working for a few days as it was the weekend.

Please be patient and let me handle this as I've handled a few SL threads and I have a generally decent idea as to how these play out.

@Leader777 is now banned.

I didn't expect that. Meh

All those who lost their affiliate accounts will also lose 60-90 days of commissions too.

There was previously a seller on here who offered a similar service, he did a runner as a lot of people bought then lost their affiliate accounts.

Would be interesting to know if the account used for the review process was killed or not?

For $20, he prefers to get banned...

It does not matter.

The seller is banned and their sales thread is closed.

I had reached out to him for a client of mine - who had stopped promoting Amazon for a while and had their PA API deactivated. We were building a site for them and needed the PA API (because well who doesn't)

Now PA API gets de-activated if you don't send sales for 30 days and if you send sales again, it activates again within 48 hours.

I wanted to see if the PA API reactivated using his traffic.

Paid him the $20 (Transaction ID: 7EW76612W72907644) - he asked me to put up a banner for the Amazon Baby Registry Bounty program on the site.

For those of you who don't know - Amazon has a bounty program - which pays out a certain dollar value for certain "actions". In this case, it was a free creation of a baby registry on Amazon which pays out $3.

Judging by this thread, it was all bot traffic that signed up to the registry.

On the 10th of July, I pinged him saying no traffic was received - beyond that there was no conversation.

Fortunately, the client managed to make some sales through friends and family and got his PA activated.

I lost $20 - but seems like the client account was saved. (The client was the one who pointed me to his thread in the first place and I did make them aware of the potential risks).

Sigh...

Prob not bot traffic, but he probably got "microworkers" to sign up to amazon using the banner on your client's site.

Seller paid them to sign up and he kept a profit. NO need for bots.
