yes they can, but as Colin said, back in the old days you used to get as much traffic back as they took - sometimes more. And it was back in the days where 1 surfers click wasn't resold over and over and over for a new fee each time.
Back then, 5000 unique hits was 5000 unique visitors (or 10k on serge's count ) whereas today 5000 unique hits is about 50 visitors sent to a stack of sites each.

to my knowledge, quite a bit beyond the link below. the "Avenue Media" discussion has came up on the boards a few times but not many people paid attention. besides, i seriously doubt this would warrant international investigations, cross border police operations etc. apparently, there were other dialer scams as well, which definately would.
Well Shaun Bode , sextracker and flying crocodile , the ex owners of YNOT , I believe , are in a world of hurt.
Alledgedly they built trojans that they buried inside downloadable mpegs etc. "free video, click here".
There is a licensing agreement where the user consents.
Then it installs a program to redirect all traffic from their computer to any URL.
It appears they also have dialers that keeps the phone connected after the computer is disconnected etc
Found this post
"""Sextrackertrojan !!!
That link you delete from that sick fool infected my computer with a dial-up network virus during that time. I tried deleting in but it kept coming back. I go to a university so I receive a free dial-up network number.
When the virus was installed in my computer it would terminate my rutgers dial-up network & then supplement it's own dial-up connection. The dial up icon was called sex tracker. After days of trying to eliminate it I decided to reboot my computer & start from scracth.
Here's the problem. The phone bill I recieved yesterday states I used a dial up network to United Kingdoms & Austria. I spent about 7 minutes online total but they charged me $51.27. How do I get Verizon to terminate that bill? It was on a separate bill called USBI. Please help.""""
We will be suing sextracker but even so they are debt laden company with assets off shore so what we collect fromt hat will remain to be seen.
He stole about 400,000 hits a day from us and our clients which equates to alot fo money in lost revenue and it caused secondary problems as well, we will never repcoup from him what he fucked us for but again we will have the pleasure of a judgement and the bbest reward from that case is when we hand the evidence over to FBI and he winds up in jail for rest of his life.
If you guys new how much sextracker had stolen from you, im sure most of the adult internet companies would be filing suit against him also.

as a side note...Ynot has never been in better hands. Bob, LAJ and the entire staff of Ynot are doing an excellent job. Ynot radio rocks and they are doing fantastic things there.
While we miss Greg Geelan... I know he misses us as well.
Originally posted by grimm@Jan 26 2005, 04:19 PM whats the backstory between meat and aga and sextracker?
Sextracker are thiefs, they have stolen traffic (about 30%) from nearly every company in adult porn, anyone that has done biz with bode has had traffic stolen from them.
They stole from us and we caught them, we have video evidence of it and bode will go to jail for committing one of the biggest internet frauds on the internet, using trojan viruses to steal traffic and defraud surfers all over the world.
They have had servers siezed speciffcally by the German police and interpol have been called in. FBI will probably be involved by end of week.
Bode and a bunch of FCI peeps are going to jail for ALONG time.

anyway..
tim from dormbucks ...
I used to work at sextracker, and before that 100free/dynamic hosting, and before that sexhound ...
You may have been in this industry longer , but I still ask , so who are you?
no arrests yet Nick, the servers were only seized yesterday.
i guess the police will be pulling them apart to see how bodes little trojan empire works before any arrests.
this shit bode has been doing has prob affected millions of surfers all over the world. I would imagine this will be an ongoing investigation between law enforcement in a few hundred countries giving bode little place to run and hide...he is fucked so bad...
streetracer we didnt narc anyone, we would have preffered that the police were not invovled, we would have much rather sued them))
If we were going to narc them we would have done so in the UK and we would have done it along time ago...however we ahave one courtcase still in the courts and we like to finish one action before we start the next, the police have got in before us so thats tough for us i guess, bode will be in jail long before we can get the cunt in court to get the money back he stole from us.
fuck us and we will sue you, we dont belive in cease and desist...
Never had a reason to post here. I just think it's funny that there's always a rumor coming from this board and they always seem false. Just interested in the truth not defending FCI at all. Proof would be cool.
