Wow this is interesting... eBay Affiliate has been jailed for cookie stuffing!!
 

I know that this forum is more geared towards selling on eBay rather than affiliate marketing, however this article sparked my interest.

eBay working with the FBI to catch out bull**** affiliates? Let's all hope and pray that they don't turn their focus on stealth accounts!!

Very interesting, its all about getting deep into eBay game. They should leave the little rats trying to make a living alone and burst the elephants.

Lots go on behind the scenes that we don't know of - unless you follow court proceedings and followups

Why would the FBI come after stealth accounts. Nothing is illegal about going stealth. There have been two supreme court cases recently that tested this. Both found that choosing to make up the information that you give to a private website is not illegal.

The day that going stealth becomes illegal will be the day that the FBI starts traveling around with Nev and Max to arrest all the catfish.
