I have posted this on Pal - just a few minutes ago since someone was asking about the affiliate program. I do not think they are a bad outfit - i do not know them - but what i do know is my security has been breached and my payment details (the email address i use for payments from affiliate programs has been shared with them for use to market me). This alone is unethical and i have a grave concern for the safety of all affiliates being approached by them.
Please act accordingly and secure yourself. Heres the post i made at PAL
...............................................
I was about to wait till i finished my own internal investigation. But i have a strong suspicion my email address has been either sold to them and gotten unethically via another affiliate program sharing it with them.
I will be posting this for other affiliates on AGD since my security seems to have been breached and my details shared.
I got this email today on 2 email accounts. One email account is a business one i share amongst affiliates, affiliate programs and business clients. The other email is strictly only used for payment details ONLY. I have never given it out to anyone other than using it for a Payment email address to certain Affiliate Programs.
That being said - I can with utmost certainly say some Affiliate program I have dealt with in the past has shared my details with this affiliate program.
That i consider really unethical and disturbing and I seek an official reply from this group and want to know who has given them my payment details email address.
I am in the process of changing it now for security - but i would suggest anyone who dares work with them be careful...
Here's the email
Dear Affiliate,
I received your details from leading affiliate marketers and would like to make you a very interesting offer to cooperate with BluffRoom.com.
Our room is relatively new, but is becoming very successful already amongst all players because of our great customer service though fast emails reply and Live Chat system, our top notch design, functionality and most of all unique promotions on the market.
Bluff Room is on the Merge Gaming Network where we offer over $80,000 daily in Guaranteed tournaments with excellent value and we have a back up payment system for the players where we can guarantee fast cash-outs and that is another reason why players like us.
We have integrated a custom built affiliate software that has the most complete statistics and custom built plans. We offer multi-language/multi-size banners with the most attractive graphics available, which give us a great brand value. We pay affiliates no later than the 5th day of the month.
We are already performing amazingly well for our affiliates due to our special bonuses, rake races, sponsorship and so on..
We are looking only for long term relationships with solid affiliates that we can look after personally and satisfy all their players needs.
Our strategy starts with an excellent conversion rate, and we typically can offer some small no deposit bonuses to SitnGo Step system which enable the players to test the site. This jointly with a special First Deposit Bonus typically on 2 levels, to cater for both small depositors and larger ones, ensures us the best conversion rates on the market. The player is then looked after and explained every promotion and that is why we manage to retain them on Bluff Room for the long term.
If you are interested in a long term cooperation with Bluff Room on similar terms or if you want to discuss other possibilities to work together, please feel free to add me on your Skype account to discuss personally or email me back.
All my details below.
Now I will not post the AMs name cause I do not think its his fault but here was his reply..
Hello,
No, we absolutely did not buy any list, it is unethical to do that.
You have been recommended to us by an affiliate that is cooperating with us, and we checked out your website and we thought that it was a potential for our affiliate program. We are very careful to choose who we can work with.
I am sorry this came out of the blue for you, this was not our intention.
I made a point to inform him the only reason i give this email address out was only for payment details to affiliate programs.
He then replied,
I agree,
And you are completely right about this. We were unaware of this so, we will question the integrity of the source.
Our most sincere apologies
So please everyone be so very careful from this group. As the emails they are sending out is from another shady source who is possibly selling or unethically distributing not only our business contact details but also our PAYMENT EMAILS associated with Money Bookers and other various payment methods.
I am still waiting for the source!!!
