Just saw this on my FB News Feed. It was a promoted post. I had a suspicion the comments might be... Well, interesting...

fuck yea OP. thanks for sharing the bad ass ad. This gave me a lot of new ideas...

Like re-posting this outted ad to DP and WaFo to increase my reps over there.
 
Seriously? If it's that big of a fucking deal then delete this, Mods. I don't do FB promoted posts, and I always thought they were a huge fucking joke.

One man's joke is another man's hidden, secret, lucrative, unpopular treasure (in need of serious reputation management lol) I guess.

If I could delete this I would.

Methinks your sarcasm detector is broken.
 
Assuming he's been running it since August 22 when the photo was posted, i'd say he's making money from it.
 
How is this outing?

If you display your ad to hundreds of thousands or millions of people and it gets posted about, its not outing.

I think a few ppl in here that are mad because they must be doing the same type of ads on fb and think its something special. WOOHOO

For the lazy: http://goog.gl/dD6Fcy (404/doesnt resolve) I bet the guy keeps changing his URL to either avoid haters or stats keeping reasons.

Looks like they have been doing this a long time. 2+ years. Found this thread on reddit about it, they got exposed and blown up.

Looks to be someone who is big into big money lead gen.
 
Good job outing.

You've just destroyed his entire online operation. His kids are going to starve now thanks to you. Hope you feel good about yourself.
 
Thanks for outing the super secret method of Facebook promotional posts and .edu CPA's.


My world will collapse now. BRB applying at Wal*Mart.
 
Would I have posted this, probably not, I know all campaigns have shelve-lives, especially on facebook... You're an idiot if you copy someone else's campaigns and you'll be looking for your 9-5 job back pretty quickly too. I bet he has several other new campaigns he's getting ready to test, once this one starts to fizzle out. Do you really want to take off where he left off? No... outing hurts everyone involved. Do I care, not really, enjoy your day bros! One thing, at least blur out the names next time.
