thats what Ibill used to do when we used to spam way back when... they would give us a master account... unlimited sub accounts... then when someone would post spam on the boards and make a big deal for Ibill to terminate the account... they would make a statement "hey man, thanks! we terminated account number xxxxx" and you never saw spam with that ID again. meanwhile, behind the scenes, the money always stayed in the master account and no one ever missed a beat.
not a wild assumption at all. in fact, its quite common practice to play games like this. all anyone ever sees is an account number or affiliate id. who creates affiliate id's? why would you do shady shit in your own name when you can just create an affiliate id like "rogue_russian" and do whatever you want... then "terminate" it when you get called out for it?
damian... i swear to christ... is this the first day in the biz for some of you clowns?
