TrafficBoyz launches with CityClub & Crown Europe casinos

[fccash]

I have just been spammed by these idiots. Their email says they "looked over our site" blah blah but the fact remains our email address is not published anywhere on the site. They did not use a contact form either. So they have bought / rented / stolen a list from somewhere, which is not surprising judging by the casinos they are pushing.
.

I recieved the e-mail as well with the very same issues - neither my name or e-mail is nowhere on any site I have - neither was the actual website name quoted that they had apparently visited. The very fact this information was as mentioned above - bought or stolen from another source seriously p*sses me off. Whoever has leaked this information has done a marvelous job.
In less than two days I have recieved at least 5 e-mails with the same spiel from different affiliate programs and 2 phone calls to my home - the e-mails I can delete without any further thought BUT calling my home is absolutely unforgiveable! On both occassions when confronted with - how did you recieve my name and phone # BOTH callers proceeded to sputter and within a few seconds we were disconected!

I would appreciate anyone from Traffic Boyz to come clean as to where there list came from so appropriate action can be taken. As it appears the "list" in question has been shopped around a few times by these fools.

I received a spam email from them, too.

Trafficboyz, where did you steal / buy my contact information from?

I'm going to go ahead and delete your signature link. Your program isn't certified here, you're a spammer, and you only have 3 posts (10 are required before signature links are allowed).

While you're at it could you also delete their stupid avatar that tries to make them look like staff here?

And are these mugs really "endorsed" by the affiliates union?

[inspiration]

Got their spam mail too, seemsthey have a lot of email addy's to spam.

TRAFFICBOYZ = SCAM

City Club & Crown Europe Joins Trafficboyz ....... 15 February 2010
TimelessPoker joins TrafficBoyz ...... 14 January 2010
Vegas Sky Casino joins TrafficBoyz ........ 15 January 2010
TrafficBoyz gets endorsed by GAU ...... 16 January 2010

I consider any program that works with these trafficboyz is ROGUE and will never get any exposure.

AGD : a platinum sponsor should not work with this kind of spammers.

Probably a good idea... Done.

100% agreed. It is being taken care of with Aff Europe. If this is not cleared up, then the sponsorship fee will be returned and they will no longer be part of that program.

They should now be aware of this thread and have always been aware that the Platinum Certification is not simply a 'paid placement', but requires integrity as well.

Thank you for pointing that out!

[Aff Europe Management]

I have spoken with TrafficBoyz,

Even though he is apologetic about the 'Spam' style post i have explained to him that AffEurope and AGD take this post very seriously.

I have taken the decision as Head of Marketing to terminate our agreement with 'TrafficBoyz', AffEurope are and will remain to be an affiliate friendly program cohering to the guidelines of Andy and AGD.

I would like to personally apologize for any emails you may have received claiming that Affeurope are offering this deal, AffEurope had no involvement in this process.

With warm regards

In light of everything that has happened we would like to again - apologise for this whole mess. On request of AffEurope the brands City Club Casino & Crown Europe have been removed from our network and all campaigns stopped. We would like to inform all affiliates that City Club & Crown Europe is a clean open and honest brand that is still very trustworthy.

Thank you very much, Marc, for your swift action! I want everyone to know that Marc responded immediately to this issue as soon as he was notified. There was no delay or hesitation. Kudos Aff Europe / Marc!

Since my email was around 3:00 AM, I am very impressed.

I'm no longer involved with the GAU, but feel the need to clarify the claim made by TrafficBoyz here:

TrafficBoyz gets endorsed by GAU ...... 16 January 2010

That claim is incorrect and misleading.

TrafficBoyz is currently on the GAU white list. They are not endorsed by the union.

I have notified Chalkie (GAU) of this thread. I expect he'll take the appropriate action of removing this program from his whitelist.
