Hello,

Won't go into great detail here but will be happy to do so in private. CCBill helped us identify an ongoing credit card fraud with one of our affiliates. Unfortunately, this activity came at great expense and risk to our program. The following individual was responsible for about 50 fraudulent credit card signups in the last two months:

Natalia Cameanaia from North Vancouver, BC
website: http://www.here4xxx.com

Unfortunately we didn't find out until after making several payments to them. Don't let yourself get screwed and freeze their account. Don't hesitate to contact me if you have questions. I can provide substantial proof of the perpetrated fraud.

Thanks CCBill! I'd have been fucked if they continued to get away with this.

Regards,

Brad

Why not go into detail about it?
If your gonna call out for everyone to get rid of him then you should be able to tell us why.

Hey guys, I'm no genius here, but I'd think Brad is holding that info back so he doesn't advertise his fraud screening methods in a public forum. it's counter productive don't you think?

Makes sense to me!

I wont go into specifics... but we worked with CCBill on this, and investigated it thoroughly.... after a TON of time analyzing the data, and putting the customer information in a spread sheet, a definate pattern emerged.... CCBill took that data, with their own, and ran with it....

The affiliate in question had been cancelled previously on other CCBill programs for similar 'issues'...

Additional information was provided to CCBill on other accounts, and those are being traced down now...

beyond that, you are going to have to trust in the reputations that Brad and I have established in the business...... this was not a rash decision, or one we took lightly...

good point sharky!!!

besides, if Brad says someone is suspicious, I don't need any more proof than that. His judgement is enough for me!

Good call on letting others know about this affiliate Brad. Cheating affiliates are scum and should be called out.
