Is the flashcash "talk to a live agent" trick a NATS "traffic leak"?
So, I've been following this NATS shave "scandal" about the gimmick of having a "live agent:" chatbox come up that tries to hardsell the surfer, but in some cases apparently cheats the webmaster out of credit for the sale.
This had been mostly academic for me, and I wasn't following it too close. Then I checked a flashcash link, and realized that they were using the gimmick. Does anyone know if flashcash, specifically, has stated that they wont use the trick to shave? p.s. it's certainly possible that I've misunderstood the problem, I really haven't been following the details, so if I'm wrong about any part of this question please correct me. |

If there is nobody out there, that's a lot of real estate going to waste!

I've seen that exit chat dialog thing on a few NATs sponsors, and the bastards don't have my link on there.
Also some of them are running it on no-console and revshare links So a few sponsors have been dumped, and I would suggest everybody to check their sponsor tours. I'm not going to get into calling names at the moment, but I will be doing some kind of script to test for changes on sponsor tours. I don't have time to go check every sponsor site and tour several times a day |

The talk to a live agent chat is essentially a modern form of the toll free phone number.

Hmmm, this doesn't sound good.

That which does not kill us, will try, try again.

After trying to exit the Busty Amateurs tour, I got invited to chat...
Jenny Says: Hello there, my name is Jenny and I am a SMARTagent. To learn more about our flash chat, just type 'Hi' or 'Hello' below...I stripped out the part where "Jenny" tells us how great her UpSellIt services are. But the best part is that if you actually do click the link for the sales team you go to http://www.upsellit.com/contactus.jsp which certainly is not going to result in a surfer joining anything.

Me fail English? That's unpossible!

is this the Intellichat script? They've said the affiliate code can be carried over, but it's up to the sponsor to do that. Most I've seen do not.

And i was wondering wether flashcash has stated they will carry the affiliates code on that chatbox gimmick. Now I got the feeling I have to check all my nats sponsors and see if they are cheating me. Bummer. |

Just saw another thingy(VAA) announced on that other board, and one of the first people doing the congrats was ccBill.
So more checking to do. |

Just because I don't care doesn't mean I don't understand!

I use these types of customer capture systems on both HD Pays and Adult Revenue Service and you can absolutely carry the code all the way through the txn. I do and just share the commission between both parties.

This business has huge issues with transparency and trust. As an affiliate I have little to no way of knowing if I am truly getting my cut and that bothers me greatly. It seems every six months there is something new like this which screws the affiliate more.

How does that sharing part work? Who are the 'both parties' you mention?
