suspicious new members

anyone notice that there have been a lot of new members eager to start trading, just in the past couple of days? I posted a trade thread yesterday and in less than 24 hours I have received 23 PMs from people wanting to initiate a trade. usually, I'm lucky if I receive three responses in the first day. each of the messages came from members who had just joined FiPG and some of the members contacted me two or three times with a different message.
even the messages sounded canned or fake. the subject of the PM might refer to the site I wanted the referral for or the price I was paying, but the actual text of the messages never mention any details.
maybe I'm just being paranoid but it sounds like someone is registering fake accounts and fishing for trades. has anyone else been contacted by a lot of new members? is it possible to check new accounts to see if they're coming from the same ip addresses?

I know A4F is down and a lot of those members have been migrating over to FiPG in the past month or so but the messages I received were suspicious. like I said, they sounded fake and I was receiving multiple messages from some of them. besides, 23 responses in that short amount of time is unusual, at least for me it is.
I'm sure some of those could have been legit but it just seems suspicious. that's all I'm saying and I was wondering if anyone else had noticed.

The same thing happened a few days before A4F went down again. There were A LOT of new people wanting to do mostly trades for cash.
One guy tried to scam me out of $22. roll What a loser. P

We're monitoring the situation closely. Thus far we've not seen enough evidence of new members being fraudulent to take any action. From what we've heard from a few newbies, it seems there was some sort of e-mail list or site that points people to free or cheap stuff, and it referenced FiPG. That's probably where much of the new traffic is coming from.
The problem we're having is many of them are in such a rush that they don't read & follow the rules, hence the big red warning box I added to the top of the page.
As long as they all turn out to be legit, we welcome them. It's always nice to have new blood to trade with, since most of us old timers have already joined all but the newest good sites, and may still need some refs on the older sites.

Good, it isn't just me noticing it. I got a ton of PMs from people the day they joined. Like dmorris said, if they're legit, then the more the merrier.

It's weird since most want to get paid after green and won't wait till after approval to prove themselves first..... that's more experienced trader than inexperienced trader tactics....
Also, most know right away that they must green first, which is kinda odd....

02-01-2007 18:12:26
I've had very few problems with all the noobs lately. In fact I almost have my 6 greens ....and since the greens i'm getting is for the site I work for...i can check them out and all have seem to be OK so far except maybe 1
Edit I have also found some of the noobs are not being organized and are very impatience when it comes to offers actually greening. But some of my referrals filed for manual credit without me asking them too and already have been credited.

I am reading the newbie info so that hopefully I don't make any of the mistakes that you all are talking about that raises concern. I'm a former engineer, own a security company with my husband and sell on eBay. I like to have multiple streams of income!!! I can promise you that I am 100% trustworthy.
Anyway, Just wanted to introduce myself and am looking forward to trading with you. I am very anxious to start making money, but I am also patient. D

I have always wondered how anyone gets these free promotions completed. I'm happy to have found these forums in my searches and also to learn about the multiple opportunities. I'm a professional in the financial industry and I too like to have multiple income streams. Based on the all the ethics exams I completed in 2006 for our financial business - I'd like to believe that I'm 100% trustworthy and would be happy to go green for people who need my help. Proud to be a newbie on this forum and look forward to moving up in the ranks.

I'm also new at this site. By the way, there is an e-book out that explains the procedures needed to understand and participate in the world of IPW's. When I had seen these free sites in the past all I could think was it's to good to be true, so I never went any further. But it's great to know that the vast majority IPW's are for real and there are sites such as this one that helps everyone achieve their goals. I am looking forward to starting, but for short time, I think I'll sit back and read and get comfortable with what goes on in this forum.

I'm new to the whole shabang, including forums but especially to this concept of trading for freebies, etc.
I hope to prove myself trustworthy, but for the moment my biggest fear is making mistakes and making myself look untrustwothy.
Looking forward to great working ralationships!

HI I wanted to introduce myself as well. Yes I am new to this whole concept of trading. My name is Ghania and I learned about this from a referal like someone mentioned above. It was a private email from a TE that I use. when I answered the email I recieved detailed information on this 'for profit' venture. I am looking forward to increasing wealth and developing trading relationships. I have already greened one person.... (although I am one of those who can't seem to get to open the edit button.)

Hi All I am a newbie too. And I am proud of it. Just because you are new, don't mean you are not honest and trust worthy.
remember all forum members you was a newbie at one time too.
Surely we all are in this to make some extra money. I have found out if some way that people can work together as a team. It will work out alot better for everyone.
One thing I have found out about this site is that it does not make newbies feel welcome.
But that's ok, I would be the same way if I had been here for along time and felt like my territory was threatened.
You should get ready for alot more newbies. Because there are some big programs promoting IPW's. right now.
I hope to be a part of this forum in a positive way. And personally welcome all new members. I may be a newbie but I am not new to a affiliate marketing. just like most new members.

Well, not all the "new guys" are scammers. I just joined up last week and have in no way scammed anyone. However, I will say, it's a bit annoying that most of the people who have joined up in the past couple weeks have not read a damn thing about how to do this. They jump right in then get pissed when they don't get credit for a trade because the didn't read the guide on how to get credit. Then, they don't know how to initiate a trade, and then ask questions they should definitely know the answer to if they had read the required reading prior to making a trade. I have so many refs signed up it's not funny on the sites I'm working on. However, very few of them actually go green. I'm wondering, Admin, if there is a way to make it impossible to access the trade module if you haven't read the rules and regs. Maybe some sort of a verification process? I know it will be a lot of work and a lot of extra coding, but it might save us all some time and trouble. Because Obviously, most of these people aren't going to learn how to do this on their own.

They went green for you already so maybe they just wanted to clean up their module, who knows. I've had some new people do some weird things in the trade module too. One person went green and deleted the trade before I paid them so now I'm having to track him down lol.

Hi,
I learned about this site from projectpayday.com, which came to my attention from participation in the site InBoxdallars and SendEarnings which are operated by CotterWeb Industries. For over a year I was being paid to complete offers. The offers one can complete are largely the same ones on sites used here. But with the well running dry on high pay out/low cost offers I'm going into paying others for being a referral.

I think it just shows a lack of professionalism to just say 'pm me details i'll do it set it up', which is what I believe what hes talking about. Before people would take their time, know what they were being involved in, etc, as opposed to just copying and pasting the same line in every open topic.

I am a member of a traffic exchange and received an offer to do referrals for people who are trying to get greens in exchange for cash. It's very well written and to the point. The guide teaches you how to get started, what to do, what not to do. This website and A4F are mentioned on the guide...that's probably you have a lot of noobs here....including me.
I have a situation and need help
After I do a referral and complete the offer requirements, how would the person know that I did my part? I completed referrals for 3 people, complied with the number of credit required but I haven't been paid yet. I don't want to be impatient and be an a$$ asking for my money. My question is this How long does it take for them to show that it's green and how long after I see the money in my paypal account?
Thanks!

If you see yourself green, they can see you green on their side. Also you will receive the paypal as soon as they send it. People are probably waiting for their account to pass approval because there is always a risk with newbies that they could be a scammer and go red.

Yeah I wish a lot of the new members could understand why so many are requesting that people wait until after approval. Considering how we get a profit of about $20 per ref, one person going red negates another who stays green.

I am trading with someone now and I told them that I wasn't going to pay upfront unless they are paypal verified.
The person went green and gave me the Paypal address that they wanted me to send the money. however, when I checked the email they gave me with the email they used to sign up (both different) - they were verified on the very same day and had a rating of 0.
That definitely can't be a coincidence. What should I do now?

Right now I am a bit confused , I looked into some TR and it looked like the users where just rating themselves. For example User X rates User Y and User Z like 4, User Y rates User X and Z 4times and so on.

Someone accused me of scamming them for not paying them, when the trade specifically said that they had to wait until approval. On top of that, they knew that I hadn't amassed all my referrals yet. The exact message was
"Are you gonna pay me? Or do I have to report you?"
I'm not calling names, but it ticks me off when newbies will do anything for a quick buck, even sign on the dotted line without reading the fine print.

I am new too, and I am 'getting my feet wet' by reading all of the posts so that I can familiarize myself with this site. I also found out about this site via an ebook that presented this as a good opportunity. I hope to trade with someone soon. Patience is golden.
If you are new and you say you will do a trade, don't take forever. just do it...

[quote8848e38c04]Obviously, but that page doesn't mention anything about freesites or this forum.[/quote8848e38c04]
When you enter your name and email address, it takes you to a page explaining that to get all the info (i.e. become a member) you need to "complete" an offer. When you complet an offer then they send you a user ID and PW to go to the actual info site where it explains how this "freebie" stuff works according to them. It lists A4F and FiPG forum and Referral Swap in there also along with other stuff.
Actually, this was how I originally found this forum. wink

Nope. Some site owners, like YGF and such, approve pretty quickly (within a day or two) and then there are companies like Trainn who quote a time of 5-7 business days so that's somewhere in the two week range. A while back, there was also Freepay and their wait-several-months approval process. Approval times vary from company to company but the smaller, more personal companies tend to have much faster approval times since they have less traffic to deal with and don't only work during office hours.

I think the others that were annoyed by it tried doing something constructive (such as politely pointing out to noobs that they won't get credit for trades with other new users).
Plus, that KeithA guy has been dishing out 3-day temp bans for anyone that makes new users feel unwelcome, like that guy with the condescending signature...

Aaaaahhh ...
You weren't ever a NEWBIE (n00b) ? roll
Like KeithA mentioned, why not try to ... maybe ... uh ... give some helpful advice without be condenscending
Not ALL of us think alike. I realize I'm still a "newbie" in these circles but I did try to look at things before I got involved and I realize many don't.
I've seen already MANY so-called "veterans" have been causing issues themselves.
Sheesh ...

HI all,
I'm new here as well, so I am looking around to learn what I can and make sure I don't make any mistakes. From what I've seen thus far, most everyone here is freindly and helpful.

I've been here a couple of weeks. I've done lots of trades for cash and now I'm paying to get some done. I've told a lot of friends who look at me crazy when I tell them how easy it is. I say an article on the internet referring to FIPG. Glad I checked it out.

Remember, for those who are new, take your time and read everything before you start doing anything. It will pay off big time as you get your bearings. That includes forum rules and guides, offer terms, how to ensure you get credit. Hmm this gives me an idea...

I've only been here for 2 1/2 weeks and already have 25TR and 13 trades in progress. So are you saying, ClassAct, that whether or not you classify as a newbie is dependant on how long you've been a member of the forum? I realize less than 3 weeks isn't a long time, but in that time, I've done almost 40 trades on FIPG and several more over at RS. I've also helped many people figure out what they're doing on their first night as a member of the forum. I don't know, just seems to me like I passed "newbie" at least a week ago D

You are an exception to the rule, and one of the apparent few who had their act together when they started out. Wish more of the newbies were like that. )

I know I'm still a newbie here by most standards but since day one, I have made it a point to "lurk" on the forum for awhile and read the "rules" completely so I DON'T stick my size "10s" in my "mouth" and goof something out.
I'm not new to marketing online so I understand the importance of following the rules. It's really quite simple to do. I think too many overcomplicate things.
I've found some really kool veterans here that have given me some great support and I thank you.
To the "new" newbies ... DON'T be in such a rush. Take it slow and read AND follow ALL the rules and you WILL profit in the long run! wink

Has more to do with increasing supply of new users (i.e. more people willing/available to complete offers) than it does naivete.

I don't know how many people have heard of or recieved anything from Project Payday, but that's how I got started here. It's basically a guy who started making a lot of money using IFWs and selling greens on forums like this, so he made a website telling all about it that you can pay to join. The cool part is, you can pay by doing an offer! The site goes into quite a bit of detail about the process, from getting trades to going green, so if you're noticing a bunch of newbies coming in who already know quite a bit, this might explain it, at least to an extent. I myself just started less than a week ago and already I feel pretty confident in what I'm doing here. At least I don't think I'm doing anything that isn't kosher. Just wanted to put in my two cents.
