 | Just clicked verity - but I'm sure I'll be put on hold...Hi guys first post here, I'm new to the game, I have a website pending and have dished some leaflets out. However a large chunk (about 75%) of my greens have come from advertisements on eBay, not from selling information of course... just providing the link in an advertisement. Now since then I was made aware it was against eBays rules and I have revoked all my listings and stopped. However, am I right in thinking it's against FJ's Terms? I had a look last night and there's nothing concrete but I've read it's a no no  Kinda feel a little stupid, usually I'm more diligent.  Can anyone clarify? Thanks |

  | The eBay method is against eBay rules, but not FJ rules. |

| That depends on how they see it, it could be classed as spam (which it is), which is against the rules.

| 35 pending! That is the annoying thing about eBay, even though it is banned, it is very successful. I created a website, emailed friends and tried to get as much traffic as I can and I've only had around 6 greens. |

| Im sure FJ and other freebie networks know where most of the refs come from, if you scroll over the ref ID in your status page it shows you were the link is from, so if people are clicking on your ref link from places that are not allowed there will be a trace of it I should think.

| The FreebieJeebies owners come on here. @SuperDad200 - That only works if the person signs up via a hyperlink, but if they copy the URL and paste it in the URL bar, then it will be untracked. |

| If you were selling a real item, and just had your referral link in the advert I'm sure that would be ok.
