In a radical change to prohibit cheating, effective immediately, Email Cash Frenzy will only allow USA members to sign up, due to most cheaters coming from outside the country.

If you are a current member and not from the USA, you are however still able to participate.

QUOTE

Email Cash Frenzy will no longer accept signups from any Residents outside the USA!

I really didn't want to have to do this but everyday I'm finding 20-30 "cheat" accounts and the majority of them are non-USA members. This is amazing to me and I think it's a shame to have to do this.

When ECF first launched I limited signups. I read a post in a forum from one of our first members telling others how to cheat the program and get around this by lying about the address. I'll be making changes to prevent this also.

Present members that live outside the USA and have accounts in good standing are welcome to stay members of Email Cash Frenzy. I hope you do.

With the changes I'm in the process of making I suggest that ANYONE having more than one account rectify the situation NOW. Otherwise, you'll just be wasting your own time as I'll be changing the way payments are made.

I apologize to all of my HONEST members for having to make this change, but I just see no other way. Between cheaters and email bouncers I spend most of the time that should be spent promoting just trying to keep a handle on the database.

I don't know how they are going to tell if their members are really US residents. Everybody can claim they lives in the White House. Likewise, I can say I live in the Buckingham Palace.

Like that is going to stop the cheating? LOL
I think Email Cash Frenzy is going just tiny bit too far with this!

my question I guess would be why is it they think only citizen's of the USA don't cheat??? Shoot I live here in the USA and I'm am positive that there are people in this country that would probably cheat just like in other countries. I don't think no one is perfect therefore they shouldn't ban all countries for the cheating that some people in some countries do...

They are being way too exclusive.. it is known that certain countries cheat more than others yes. But every country except the USA cheating is stupid, I live in Australia and i am sure the cheat ratio here is about the same as the USA or the UK...

NOONE is going to advertise emailcashfrenzy.. looking at the names of my current emailcashfrenzy referals... i rekon most of them arent from the US... why would anyone pay money 2 advertise a product that is only applicable for a quarter or half or whatever of its readers

there's my ten cents.. my two cents is free (lol)

It's defenedly going to affect the program big time and not in a good way!
I'm pretty sure if I say, they're not going to be round much longer, it's not far fetched, sad thou!
(Nice sentence there, anyone understud anything? lol)

I think first of all it's stupid to ban any country since we all know cheaters come from all over the globe and U.S. is defenedly not clean of them, second of all, there are countries that I have never heard cheaters coming from, for example I have never heard of a finnish cheater! Anyone else?

But well, we all do our own decisions.......

I don't agree with this decision either.

I have to back Jeannie on this!

1st...I can honestly say, I for one have never
found a USA cheater in my base - may be overlooked
but at this point, never found one.

I have constantly found international multiple accts
even up to 10 or more at a time...all out of country.

2nd...Its her site, she pays the bills, and its her decision!

I've had plenty of cheaters from the USA, it's the third most common country after China and Italy.

I've also had one person signup for 88 accounts from an IP address from within the USA, and entering Lithuania as their country.

I agree with Rupe, my biggest cheater to date was from .. russia I think, he kept making 100+ accounts 3 days running. Everyday I would delte his accounts. Now keep in mind on our scripts there is no short cut, there must be an email adress and the link must be clicked from that address. By the third day I was feeling sorry for the guy knowing he had to go through hours of work to do this.
USA, China, italy, cheaters come from all over the globe. The bigger the population the begger the percentage of cheaters. <shrug>
