Hi All,

An Affiliate Manager just pointed out this site to us this morning:

Their Site
xxxhttp://www.slotclicks.com/

Our site
http://www.casinocashjourney.com/

It is absolutely identical to ours.

People sure are lazy.

You really should add an x to disable their link in your post. You don't want to give the thieves any kind of link that the search engines can follow. They definitely don't deserve it.

Hi Randy,

Thanks for the tip. I did not realize that.

Hi All,

The site is now down and the hosting company was very co-operative. This is our correspondence:

Hi,

Thanks for the email we have taken necessary mesures.

Hi CCJ,
that's a very nice mail, can i copy it for my future correspondance with hosting companies? ,)

Hi Paolino,

Yes, please go right ahead. Note that the message below was cc'd to the hosting company. We did not have to go any further than this. We got very lucky that it did not waste a lot of our time.

scumbags! thats' all I have to say .

I kept typing the url slotchic, finally I got it right. I think this domain was dumped in 2006 and picked up by a GoDaddy user. The domain itself dates back to 2002 according to prelinger.

Curious what aff manager noticed this and how. But in anycase for the sake of my sanity just have two words "dirt bags".

Hi bb1web and Greek39,

Yes, they are completely unethical webmasters.

It originally started with this particular website back in July 2006 and the Affiliate Manager who brought it to our attention when they tried to sign-up for an account. We had no problem in taking them down and now they are back again.

Thanks,

Have not had much time to take a closer look at the site. The last time I checked the homepage was 404. The rest of the site is 200, persistent little buggers. Maybe in a few days the whole site will be gone or changed for the better.

Not Found
The requested URL /index.html was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Apache/1.3.37 Server at xxx.slotclicks Port 80

I left the link open for a reason.

We disable links like the above for a number of reasons.

One of those reasons is so the web stats will not have a referral link back to the thread.
