Google AdSense Pay-Per-Click Advertising Abuse Site.
Spamvertized STOOGE Site. Spam Distributors, Tracking & Redirection, Email Harvesting.
- Parasite websites that help nobody but their owners.
- User beware. Do not give them the "Pay-Per-Click".
- Site is showing the Google AdSense ads then promotes them on another site.
- Parasite website: gwfyi.com
- Parasite website: v-r-e.org

Site is linked to another site which is setup to scam the visitor into thinking they would get paid to write reviews (like this one) for money. That site has no working sign-up form (didn't work for me) as they don't want you too. They know and expect that a normal user would first check to see the type of sites they would be reviewing (for money) before signing up.

When the visitor on that site clicks the "Click The Theme Below To Select Reviews", it opens another page with an iFrame of the "ad host site"; well positioned to only show the first lines of the ad hosted on the ad host site (view source, paste into an HTML editor and increase the iFrame size to see).

The visitor is made to think that links in the iFrame are to show what sites are to be reviewed. They are Google AdSense Pay-Per-Click Advertising links. When the visitor clicks on a "link" in that iFrame (a Google AdSense Pay-Per-Click Advertising link) the sites owner is paid a percentage of what that advertiser pays to Google for the click (AdSense Pay-Per-Click).

The main site: gwfyi.com (a Parasite Website) and the ad host site: v-r-e.org (also a Parasite Website) use the same site template and "Privacy Policy" (yea its possible but the ad host site would know someone is linking from their site/ads and most would stop it). The ad host site: v-r-e.org is also a Parasite Website which only shows the RSS feeds of a legitimate site (there's nothing to maintain).

This intended and deceitful practice schemed into the websites by or from these sites is used to boost website traffic and sales through Google AdSense. Their actions are not consistent with how a legitimate and reputable person/company would do business.

Kam Y. I have been reading your posts closely. They are quite unique and the technical detail is impressive. Thanks for all the effort you put into this.

Wow.

Mai N. Thanks, I try to use common sense to review the sites. I don't need to be scammed to see, review or report a problem.

Like our parents said; if it's too good to be true..., and that duck quacking thing :-)

Sometimes we forget to listen to our parents, so I try to forewarn!!

I do follow up with complaints to the sites registrars (when needed) and in this case to Google AdSense abuse.

T N. it's unfortunate that we don't have the capacity to listen to our parents until it's too late.
