Dear AdSense publisher

Do everybody a favor, and add these URL's to your competitive advert filter:

  • celldorado.com
  • wixawin.com
  • funmobile.com

Why? They're all big scams designed to lure foolish teenagers by promising "a thousand free ringtones" and having some tiny print at the footer of the page telling them that it costs 10 euros a month.

This Finnish television show (link in Finnish) investigated this. Here's a small translated excerpt from the article:

13 year old Amanda Kujo's cell phone rang last month. A text message promised a free ringtone. When ordering the "free product", she actually subscribed to paid phone entertainment, even though the text message didn't tell this.

This is even worse. Marketing their products with text messages is just evil.

The article specifically mentions the three companies midway through. Unless you're some evil prick that wants to monetize his site in any way possible, please follow my advice.

I liked AdSense when it wasn't full of junk.
