Good evening, all, I'm seeing a _lot_ of URL redirection sites I've never seen before:
shorten.in, registered Aug 20, 2006 (http://shorten.in/194 -> prosperityautomatedsystem.com) simurl.com (http://simurl.com/ss-nn-uu -> julesent4.info -> prosperityautomatedsystem.com) qdeo.com (http://qdeo.com/53 -> julesent4.info -> prosperityautomatedsystem.com) kuturl.com (http://kuturl.com/x.php?za -> 404)
This last one now shows:
Because of the actions of a SPAMMER - we have withdrawn this service. So, apologies to all of you who genuinely used our free service. You can blame the scum who ruined it for everyone else. We try hard to help others, while some are determined to prove themselves as lower than amoeba crap.
Many of the URLs redirect to www.prosperityautomatedsystem.com.
Try submitting a URL to these; you'll see the number returned isvery low, indicating these are either fake redirectors or rarely used.
Some of these may be minor redirection sites being abused.
One operator of such a site contacted us bemoaning the abuse and also contemplating shutting it down due to it.
