Fraud Tips
Hi Sarah,
Well in regards to a good WHois, Dtrack links automatically to dnsstuff.com there are plenty other ones like them out there.
I am unsure exactly how Alexa ranks sites but if their is no traffic it will be in the millions. What I mean is if a site looks real good and it has a Copyright date of 2001-2006 yet they have no rank or they have a ranking in the high millions then something is fishy. This 5star site is in the top 7,000 rannk of all sites on the net.
Let me give you an example, I had a site that was getting 5-10 hits a day, a small little experiment site and it got to the high hundred thousands 993,000 if I remember. Basically look for a site's rankings in relation to how long they have been around, how big they look etc. Alexa sometimes will show some things not in Whois. It is just another tool.
In regards to your email, well I like it as long as you stick to your guns and talk to them. Always make it more difficult for the scammer, because they wont work hard for it, they would rather find a Affiliate Manager that doeesnt care. Let them know if you do talk to them that you will be montioring their account for 30 days, etc.
