It hurts my respect for my own people. Where has our honesty and dedication gone? Is this what we have been taught to follow by our elders? And I wish our Brother G and all webmasters good wishes to eradicate cheaters like this one Sanjay Das. sincerely Aditya I am saddened by the fact that some Indians are resorting to such menial and fallen acts.

They profess to drive a horde of ad clickers to your site in return for you joining the horde. Sort of like BlogExplosion and the like, except for the ad clicking angle. Anyway, I went through the signup process to see what sort of a scam this might be and, sure enough, I soon received a confirmation e-mail stating that, due to high demand, they are only currently only accepting 'pro' memberships -- at a cost of $19.99/month! Needless to say, I didn't 'upgrade.' They even have fraud holidays, which they call Power Click days. In fact, yesterday was a Power Click day, during which they asked everyone to visit and click ads at ten or more member sites. -- <a href="http://www.fivecentnickel.com/" rel="nofollow">fivecentnickel.com</a> By the way, this reminds me a bit of a clickfraud traffic exchange that I recently ran across (name not mentioned on purpose).

The 'honey pot' idea. It's worrying - there is always someone ready to cheat the system, and it will hurt both legitimate publishers and advertisers.
