Brazilian Webmaster Arrested for Promoting US Sponsors

[RawAlex]

Me thinks you aren't being very wide in your thinking.

perhaps he is promoting US sponsors. Great.

However, was he also using the images to link to or blind link (aka TGP traffic trade) with sites that might be CP sites, example? Many people do this sort of thing, unwittingly ending up trading traffic with CP pushers. There are plenty of CP gangs out there that use TGP toplists as a way to sneak in and steal traffic, getting honest webmasters in deep shit, often unknowningly trading traffic with some of the biggest scum around.

As a side note, the CP sites are often NOT true CP sites, rather just a billing gateway to get CC information and scam people in other ways. It's a perfect way to collect fully valid CC and personal information, which in turn makes CC fraud on honest adult affiliates programs possible. People who got scammed by trying to sign up to CP are much less likely to contact authorities.

So as we don't have the true story, just "friends of friends of a friend in Brazil", I would mark this thread down more as an attempt to sell 2257 services than to really inform us.
