I have blacklisted Clubdice, Carnival, New York, USA Casinos and CDpoker

This makes Cpays and their casinos the problem.

Anyone that would hire that scum Alex Blood is a scum.

Most, if not all, of this spam is for Amber Coast. Enough said

[ewhitaker]

I think a major problem with cpays and perhaps some of these other affiliate managers is that they are not educated in what to look for as far as what blackhatters do. I think they should be trained in depth on this stuff. Maybe they are, but not good enough.

I know that cpays doesn't seem to care too much anyway, but this really did it when I saw what spamhaus posted about Blood. I am stunned that cpays would continue to keep him on, in fact, I'm going to point my users to spamhaus so they can get a better understanding of what exactly cpays is doing.

Thanks for the info on this.

Guys, you have got to check out this thread:

More Spam - Who is this one?

It gets interesting on the second page.

Anyways.....


Dumb question, but what does Playtech have to say about this crap?

IMO this is tarnishing (even more than they already are) the rep of the casinos being spammed, as well as Playtech in general.

I have sent out an email to Iris 2 days ago with no response I have talked with her before and found her to be very helpful. I hope she got the email and is looking into some of the recent findings.

Iris is a nice enough person but I don't believe she has any influence or authority at Playtech.

She often ignores emails, but I guess she is useful in a traffic policeman role - waving communications to more senior Playtech managers who may (or may not!) choose to respond.

This company could do much to improve its communications beyond hype press releases, that's for sure.

Playtech’s actions have been to ignore all this spamming nastiness and hope it all just goes away.

I don’t know what Playtech's ‘Official Position” is and I don’t care, their actions are what really counts.

As most of you now know, the reason for all the javascript spam in the search engines has been due to an Exploit found by the spammers in commonly used CMS (Content Management System).

The spammer was able to infect the member system of the CMS with page after page that had a javascript redirect placed on it that would cloak the page (show the search engine bots one thing and then show real visitors something different)

The Exploit has been found and is now patched. Most of the Spam pages in the search engines are now going to a 404 (Page not found) and they should be dropping out of the Search Engine Results over the next few days. The rest of the spam pages will drop out of the Search Engine Results as the owners of these sites that are using the CMS update their software.

All we can do now is wait till the next spamming onslaught from this piece of human garbage. You can bet that blood and his group of toads are already looking for the next exploit to take advantage of.

Playtech - you better wake the fuck up... your long term bottom line is not looking so good right now. Sticking your heads in the sand is not the way to deal with this.

Also, short note for all of you that wanted google to “Take Action” and bann all these spam sites (myself included).

As has been proven now, all of these sites that were showing in google and the other search engines as spam were owned and operated by people that had nothing to do with the spam or spammer. For the most part they were just innocent hard working Webmasters that had the misfortune to choose a CMS that had an undiscovered Exploit in it waiting to be found by a hacker/spammer.

If google would have banned all those sites that were displaying all that javascript redirect spam, google would have been punishing innocent hardworking people for something that they had nothing to do with and no control over... a hack on their websites.

Google banning all those websites would have been like the police arresting the owners of a house that had been burglarized, for no other reason than the homeowners made the unfortunate choice to buy the house that was going to be robbed.

In my opinion Google deserves a few pats on the back for not jumping to conclusions and doing the right thing. I know the folks at Google were under a LOT of pressure to just remove all those sites, but that would have just hurt a few more innocent victims of this scumbag spammer.

I truly never fail to be amazed by the wanna be casino affiliate mentality.

Over at CAP there is a poster that goes by the name dhayman that has stolen the information that I posted on this forum about the spammer Alex Blood and then posted it at CAP without giving credit to me or a link to CM and claiming the work involved and information I discovered as his own... And people wonder why casino affiliates for the most part have such a bad reputation.

My original post is here
http://www.casinomeister.com/forums/...cdpoker-6.html


The post by this dhayman at CAP

Same BH'er infiltrating Google
Casino Affiliate Programs - Affiliate Community



I guess that the fact he is bitching about spammers and scrapers and then steals content (scraping) and does not give credit for the content is in my mind rather ironic, the word dumbass keeps coming to mind.


>>>ADDED
What really bugs me is that dhayman may have stolen the information from me and CM but he really does not understand what it is that he stole. If he had a clue what I did to get that information he would not be saying the things he is at CAP... Its kinda like the the little kid that steals the formula for a cure to cancer then uses it to line the bottom of a bird cage...

[lots0]

You can bet that after getting the information I posted here at Casinomeister about Alex Blood stolen, that I will not be posting any more information about this or any other 'important' subject so it can be stolen by people that are all upset about content theft...

I guess being upset about someone stealing your content makes it OK to steal content from someone else.

These people at CAP are a joke, I am ashamed that I am in the same business as them.

You thevin asswipes are not any better than the spammer Alex Blood...
