WARNING- SCAMMING SPONSOR : Suicide Girls.com

OK - I wasn't going to post this, but these guys have been 100% arseholes to deal with from the word go. If you promote them, you WILL get scammed.

For those who don't want to read everything - after one week of signing up:
Note - the site I created works purely off new SE terms.
Quote:
Simon,

I want to thank you for trying to increase SuicideGirls.com traffic with cutegoths.com and joining our affiliate program, however we no longer wish to have you as an affiliate, your site is just not bringing any results (only one sign-up).

I have closed your affiliate account and would appreciate it if you remove SuicideGirls content from your site.

Thank you,

Victoria (ViquiV) Suicide
V.P. Production & Traffic
SuicideGirls.com
I'm going to do this by a blow blow blow, just so you can see what type of idiots they are.

#1 - I register. I'm using text only from their site, and buttons only from their site.
Quote:
We thank you for signing up for our affiliate program, however, your site is breaking some of the rules:

1. Please REMOVE the text "goth teen culture" "newest teen goths" and any other mention of teens. Our Girls are NOT for teens, you must be over 18 to enjoy them.
This is fair enough, but stupid. I remove the text teens.
Quote:
Also, on each girls page, the sentence: "We have the pleasure of bringing you the latest nude pic set from our very sexy OTOK" should be taken off, or corrected. it should not read "from our very sexy", they are NOT your girls, they are Suicide Girls (and that needs to be capitalized).

3. As an affiliate, you are only authorized to use the preview images and banners. You may NOT use profile information, journal entries or anything else that is not a pre-approved image.
2 is fair enough, but stupid, 3 is just stupid.
Anyhow, I go ahead and make the changes.

Next round - suddnely they change their minds.
Quote:
Simon, thanks for your cooperation.

I've double checked with Missy, and she said that as long as you take out any mention of Teens, and clearly state that these are Suicidegirls and NOT your girls, then she's okay with you keeping the profile information on your site.

Thanks again,
ViquiV
Quote:
It's fixed now.
Thank you!

Hey Simon,

We are still perfecting our affiliate program, and adding to the "terms and conditions." Yesterday, your affiliate account was closed, and I apologize for that, as you were very accommodating with the changes we asked you to make.

We appreciate your interest in the site and your efforts to increase our traffic. The one thing we'd like you to change, however, is the comments that you're posting on your site. We've decided to only allow 5 journal entries per girl and five comments on each set to be displayed on a site other than ours.

We'd also like to know your future plans for your site. You advertise it as a goth myspace. If you're eventually going to have your own members, who can login and post on your site...and post comments on our pictures, that's going to be a problem. The affiliate program is meant to be a way for others to advertise our site by linking to it, once you start incorporating your own community it gets complicated.

I make more senseless changes:
Quote:
Thank you so much for your understanding and cooperation.

I hope your site is successful and we can send you lots of cash! ;-)
-ViquiV
oh, no wait:
Quote:
At the top of the column on the right side...can you change it to say Recent SuicideGirl pics...instead of Cute Goth pics...this way it's clear that these are SuicideGirls.
Thanks!

Judge for yourselves.
All I can say is - fuck you. You might have got some press in some newspapers recently, but if you think this is how you can fraud affiliates, get fucked.

That is definitly Interesting. I'm not sure I'd call them scammers though, as much as I'd call them "high maintanance". Any one sponser that pushes that many rules on an affiliate, shouldn't have an affiliate program. Changes for legal reasons (such as teen) are ok.. However, if you are marketing via SEO, you should have the ability to market it in a way that will collect the most traffic for you, and in essence for them.

As I said - I've not posted before, as until now they have been 'high maintenance' - The instant they closed my account for the second time, WITH FUNDS IN IT - with no mention of being able to do so (terms and conditions are NOT listed on their affiliate page) - that was fraud.

I figured that once I'd got through there, I'd be the only one who could or would bother, so I'd collect ;)

Simon,

I'm sure Suicide Girls appreciates your notice, however they prefer Affiliate Program to the term Sponsor. Please create a new thread with the title "WARNING - SCAMMING AFFILIATE PROGRAM: Suicide Girls.com" and close this one.

Afterwards, please be aware that they do not like words in all-capital letters, so close the replacement thread and crate a new one entitled "Warning - Scamming affiliate program: Suicide Girls.com."

Once you've done that, note that they are SuicideGirls.com, not Suicide Girls.com. They appreciate your patience but must once again request that you replace the 2nd replacement thread with one which omits the space in the domain name in the thread title.

They'll look forward to giving you further instructions when the above steps are completed.

Damn, seems they are going to want to see your business plan next and do a background check on all new affiliates. Amazing you stuck it out as long as you did. Funny how they take away just about all your methods of promoting them and then turn around and say you aren't converting, gee I wonder why.

let's be clear. they are really a bunch of cyco. someone say high maintenance, have you even saw the site quantum-x made to promote them ? man this is hard and amazing work there ! as an affiliate manager they must feel honoured to have a webmaster like that promoting them! their se traffic sux and they would have make more sales and increase their presence by letting his site running. cutting a webmaster account in those conditions is pure bullshit.

That is hilarious!

But in seriousness, I've heard enough bad things about the owners/operators of the site that i'd never touch them. Even though I have a serious soft-spot for goth "women", their "total control" approach is not surprising - esp. their inability to get their story straight.

I'm surprised you had as much patience as you did!

I agree, that site he made, cutegoths.com is awesome. It looks like he put many hours of work into it, and for suicidegirls to close his account for not being able to produce enough sales is so insulting.

They should state somewhere in their terms that they require their webmasters to send a minimum of x amount of sales in x amount of time or they close the account. Then webmasters wouldnt waste their time joining their affiliate program.

their affiliate program is a mess and fugly

this is the only info they have on their stats page:
Quote:
CURRENT BALANCE:
$0.00
EARNED TO DATE:
$0.00 (0 SIGNUPS)
thats all the stats they give you. no raw/unique stats , just that.

No idea. The idea is sunk now that I can't use their journals. Bit of a fuck around really, it was all custom software to do that.

Sucks that they jerked you around like that, but thanks for the warning. I signed up with them a while back. They had a lot of content restrictions at the time - a pack of about 100 pics, a handful of banners, and that was it. Using other pics & text content was definitely against their tos.

I put a couple of their banners in a rotation, it looks like now is as good a time as any to remove them.
