The Faebook Scam - Yes, That’s Faebook, Without A C

Interesting, because when I visited that site it imported my name from the real Amazon site. I saw on the top of the screen: 'Hello (my name on Amazon), we have recommendations for you...'
In other words, the scam website does look pretty convincing.

This is yet another scam that operates by affiliate marketing. If the guy gets a ten people to sign up through that link, he’ll get a free ps3. For them to get one, they each need to scam another dozen people the same way. Eventually, i think the market is getting wiser day by day and people have stopped signing up. Today the public is too knowledgeable for them to recoup their losses by enrolling them; without new members, it ends sadly.

Better luck next time spammers!!

This is one weird scam. Someone registered the domain Faebook.com (Facebook without a C) and redirected it, using an iframe, to Amazon - of course, with his/her own Amazon referrals

Doesn't amazon only have a 1 day cookie? I guess it's a good idea during the holiday season, but still...
 
Amazon has 24-hour cookie. If the visitors don't buy, you just waste your PPC money. So fuck it. I know a guy in DP making 1000 euros doing Germany Amazon campaign over at Google.de. Amazon US and UK are too fucking saturated. Go fuck German market.
 
well no ppc money wasted....do you guys have an idea how many people miss the 'c'?

I don't see any scam, just luck finding faebook.com available

the only thing I'd have done is using ebay instead of amazon
 
my favorite part "i think the market is getting wiser day by day and people have stopped signing up. Today the public is too knowledgeable for them"

right...
