And in the few minutes since my last post, I’ve received 26 (YES – TWENTY SIX!) more crappy spams to just one of my e-mail addresses from this scumbag.
I’ll say this. If this *IS* Casino Partners, and it’s being allowed to happen, then I have no alternative but to add all their casinos to the public blacklist.
Everyone seems to be getting a little fustrated over these emails. Email spam is a serious offence inside the world wide web and outside in the real world.
It seems quite apparent CP is not responding to much these days. I suggest bypassing CP and take a tougher stance. Email spam such as this violates:
1. ISP provider for CP
2. Can Spam Act of 2003Something worth looking into. My head a little heavy with a hang over. greek39
Here is something interesting….
I forwarded one of them to CP. Since I sent that one over, a new email address of mine is being hit. I don’t know if they are being harvested at CM, CAP, or some other forum…. But I just got about another 50 of them and they are coming in faster since I have complained.
CP needs to do something about this affiliate. I told them in the email that I would have everyone I know forward the emails to them and flood their emails – see how they like it.
Otherwise, a public blacklist would be just fine with me. They are ALLOWING this affiliate to continue, which means (to me) that they approve.
Maybe I should check out Hi-Roller casino….
I got one email from Jesus :nervous:
This thread was started on Friday Evening CET. I expect Casino Partners have not seen it yet, what with it being the weekend.
I am looking forward to Laurent’s response and hopefully proactive action on this.

They are working on Sundays.
This spammer is an old-time spammer, as I just received an email delivered to one of my email addresses BUT titled to one of my other old email address that I deleted a long time ago (due to too much spam on it).
He is probably one of those big spammers spamming for Viagra et all.
Hi Everyone – Our Media team is working with a third party company that does email marketing. Most of it has been legit and no complain came through. Since they’re some kind of proxy between their partners and us, they use different domains. A few of their partners thought they could spam and now we’re shuting them one by one and validate the good guys.

Thanks for this fast reply, Laurent. I’m happy you’re taking the good decision. However, why it took so much time to reply in public? There was a thread as well at the GPWA since weeks, and I’ve sent emails about that to spam@cp, but never got any reply. Lack of communication is what can create an issue when there is not.
In anycase, I will be very happy to see those emails disappearing. :colgate: Not only for my mailbox, but for the good of Vegas Red and CP.
Cedric – The thread started friday night. We were back in the office sunday morning. The fact that i didn’t reply sunday doesn’t mean the issue wasn’t being taken care of. Basically we’re dealing with this spam problem for the last couple of months. there are some good guys doing 100% legit email marketing that are being penalized because of a couple of spammers thatmanage to sneak in the third party system. We’ve issued some new guidelines to our partner which hopefully will reduce significantly the risk of having a spammer as part of the network.

I hope it stops quickly. In one week I will begin forwarding all of this emails directly to CP. Sorry, but it has annoyed me for way too long.
PS – That means you will be getting hundreds of hi-roller emails per day (sometimes per hour).
After all these years I should know I suppose, but I don’t.
How does one “sneek in through the third party system”?

LaurentHi Laurent,
You are right, the thread here started friday night…. But what about the thread at GPWA concerning this particular spammer? That one was started 2 months ago….
(http://gpwa.net/forum/showthread.php?t=167057)
In the beginning of june GPWA members were notified that this particular situation has been taken care of. Why is there no single response of you guys to the threads there?Then two weeks ago another thread was opened at GPWA direct in the CP forum….
(http://gpwa.net/forum/showthread.php?t=167335)
no response at all also….I send you two e-mails exposing 70 different affiliate accounts what are involved in this spamming, the first one on 06/29/2006 and another one on 07/10/2006 using various e-mail adresses of CP and sending you a link to a thread in my forum about this spammer.
(http://gamblingguards.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=113)I didn’t get a single response of CP!
At least it would have been nice to receive anything, maybe that you are working on it, or maybe that this guy was taken care of…. but nothing…
Allone in the last two days I received 25 spam e-mails to different accounts, always the same setup, always the same guy, always the same affiliate accounts….If the affiliate accounts he is using since over 2 months now just had been shut down then at least the mailings would have been stopped…. He wouldn’t use the same accounts anymore if he wouldn’t receive his payments on time or if they were inactive….
This guy is really bad, we’re not talking about some spam rookie here, he is absolutely boldfaced, using for one of his domain registration details even the Central Intelligence Agency…. How confident he must be?
(http://www.gamblingguards.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=96)
(http://whois.domaintools.com/cenina.com)The one and only way to stop him is to close down his affiliate accounts and not to pay him! (that’s actually in CP’s Anti-Spam Policy…)
This spamming is going on for 2 month now, there are threads about it all over the gambling boards about this Hi Roller Crap…. and actually nothing is done from your site!
A hand full of spam complaints should have been enough to disable his accounts, so why wasn’t anything done? You’re talking about someone sneaking in the third party e-mail system…. That’s not really the issue here!
The Issue here is that a guy is spamming heavily for Vegas Red over a two month period and nothing is done from your site to stop him! It maybe needs you ten minutes to disable his accounts and stop payments….
Affiliate programs have to act quick on spammers, cutting them off right away, not leave them this amount of time to spam spam and spam… It’s in my eyes extremely unfair to any hard working webmaster if nothing at all is done to stop this guy…
Maybe that all sounds pretty rude, but don’t you think is time to act?
Have a great one
AndyI have received a very, very long anonymus mail tracking the spammer to the origin.
If I find it to be true I will publish it.
I think you would not like that, Laurent.
Perhaps time to stop the mails?

Quote:This guy is really bad, we’re not talking about some spam rookie hereSomeone that does not work in online gambling also pointed that there was viruses / malwares in the setup files. However, it needs to be verified, but the exe was flagged two times (we thought unfairly – at first – as there are the banking system which communicates with a server), and a dialer has been found. But as I said, this information needs to be verified.
