  Old  Do I Qualify for a Refund?

I purchased LinkTrain.net from aLx a few days ago for $100. I thought it was a pretty cool site and it was a custom script with already a few advertisers on it.

After thinking about it for an hour I ended up buying it. A few days later I saw a few new links on the site and realized I was never paid for them. I traced the links back to a member on TFL, his name was Haris. He told me he found an exploit in the script and could add his links without paying. I told him if he showed me how it was done, I would leave his link up there for helping me.

Today I realize the page isn't loading. Someone added an iframe to the script because it's insecure and exploitable. I told Alex on AIM that he should fix it or I want a refund, I would even give him the money that I earned from the site, so he would only have to send me around $90 back.

He told me it's my fault that the script isn't working when I haven't touched anything on it. And when he did realize it was someone hacking it this is what he told me,

So instead of fixing the script, he wants me to ban one person, when there are many others that can do the same harm.

I had to take down the site for now because they were adding iframes and everything from the insecure script making the site show up as nothing.

Without a doubt. File for a chargeback and push the domain back once you receive the money.

Would you believe both "hackers" who exploited the script were from TFL. I really thought the people here had good intentions, guess not

Thanks aLx, I'll let you fix it when you get home.

Looks like our fellow ".Nick" hacked it because he was made I was displaying a small Yahoo Publisher ad on the site.

Ill just encrypt the urls so you cant see the sessionid and make a ip log so that you can log ips and check back if needed. And a big wag of the finger to mr nick lol.
