Nicholas Kusnir: Payday Loan Spammer Turd
Posted in Dirty Dealings, General Assholeism, Spammers on January 22nd, 2008 by KeithSo a few days ago I caught someone cheating my LinkEx over at Porn Star Catalog. We require reciprocal links and what they were doing was putting the reciprocal link on a junk page that was setup just for that purpose. Now, putting a reciprocal on a links page is OK, but putting it on a links page that is not part of your site (i.e. you cant navigate to it by clicking and of course, neither can visitors or search engines) is not acceptable and that goes without saying. Thats a dirty trick and while yes, the guy technically complied with the link back requirements, its clear he is trying to play unfair so now he gets to kiss a turd.

Notice that the site being spammed is hosted at WebAir. I have sent a complaint to WebAir about this issue and am waiting to hear back from them. Of course, if I do not hear back from them soon they will get a turd of their own to kiss.
In the mean time, I highly recommend that you blacklist these domains and IP addresses on your sites to prevent him from fucking around with you as well.
Update #1: More Information on Our Spammer/Scammer
I decided to do a quick Google search on the e-mail addresses listed on the domains above. When I searched for the address shown on the payday-loan-now.us (austin78755@gmail.com) - the domain the spammer was spamming my site to promote, I found two results. The first one was this KAT Turd and the second one was a website called Brew Better Beer, which appeared to be selling an eBook. No surprise, I thought. Spammers like to spam to sell eBooks.
Apparently, this spammer bought the website from a guy off eBay who scammed him, according to the little rant posted there. The irony here is just too much!
ATTENTION: This page is here to express my anger at the ebay seller kswebsites for selling me such an awful quality product. I purchased this website, BrewGoodBeer.com, which sells an Ebook that is supposed to be a “step by step guide that will take you from start to finish to make great testing beer in your home.”
This was a complete waste of money, and I am forced to write it off because I can do NOTHING with this website to recoup my loss. If you are buying ANYTHING from this ebay seller, I strongly recommend that you fully scrutize the final product, ESPECIALLY ANY EBOOK SELLING WEBSITES! I thought the website that sold the ebook looked nice enough, so I made the false assumption that the ebook itself was good quality. I was wrong.
I cannot sell his ebook because it is the worst quality ebook that I have ever seen on the internet, and I am a veteran when it comes to ebooks. I REFUSE to sell such a horrible quality product to my customers. I feel confident that selling this ebook for $19.95 to customers would cause so many complaints that I would risk having my merchant account shut down at Paypal. See for yourself the original ebook at brewgoodbeer.com/beer.pdf
Rather than being a “complete guide” to brewing beer as promised in the auction and on this website, the ebook is rather a poorly combined list of awfully-written beer recipes, many of which do not contain instructions at all but only confusing ingredients.
When I complained to the ebay seller kswebsites, he sent me an “upgrade” to the ebook. This upgrade is almost as big of a joke as the original ebook. See the “upgrade” for yourself at brewgoodbeer.com/beer.zip
Shame on you kswebsites for selling such garbage on the internet, and then on top of that suckering your customers in hosting for $7.95 a month for your horrible product.
Buyer beware.
Sincerely, Nick K from austin78755@gmail.com
Oh but wait, it gets even better. I decided to run a whois on the brewbetterbeer.com domain - and I snickered when I noticed that the idiot apparently decided to use his real name on the registration. Complete ownage. I could continue to dig through his network of websites, whois’ing and digging his name servers, but what would be the point? He has been outed enough.
