I wonder if you approached him privately about his conduct. Then Andrew before going public with this. As much as I agree that Cody was way out of line here, I also know that everyone of us has done stupid things online before. One stupid thing is no worst than the next. I hope we as a community will learn to handle matters with more wisdom in the future. Mark my words, down the road, there will hell to pay with CB. Remember, the internet like the world is one big sandbox, by exposing one, we expose us all.

So is anyone really surprised by this behavior? I think there’s a pervasive attitude among online marketers that if something makes a profit it’s ok to do. Many online marketers gladly trade ethical behavior for money.

Phil,

Thanks for having the guts to point this out…..however it didn’t stop Michael Cheney from working with Moya!!! Moya is currently his number 1 affiliate for his latest product. As Gecko said in “Wall Street”…..”Greed is good. Greed works.”…..seems to be the case doesn’t it?

Personally I will never buy anything from Moya again, nor buy anything from any so called “guru” who works with him. I think others should do the same. Don’t forget we are all affiliates in some way or another and many people will have lost money because of what Moya suggested/encouraged.

Any by the way, terminating his clickbank account is meaningless. He’ll just get another handle and another company to pay his commission to.

The only way to stop such behaviour is expose it and then hit where it hurts most….in the pocket book….by boycotting the offenders products and endorsements. Unsubscribing would be a good start!!

I reported the matter to ClickBank.

Their reply

========================================================
We have blacklisted this affiliate’s hoplink as well have
suspended their account. It does take a few hours sometimes
for the hoplink to be disabled after this has been done.
They will also be notified that this type of activity is not
tolerated by Clickbank.

This is unbelievable. If this is true (I’m not sure whether it is as I had already unsubscribe from his newsletter list), the Cody has really “outdone” himself this time.

I know for a fact that already, some gurus out there already view him and his business ethics negatively but, this is really hitting below the belt. But then, I guess its fine for him as long as he makes a few dollars.
