Rob

of that Rob...what happened?
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:04 AM): I'm normally

Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:06 AM): A hacker tried
to test credit card numbers against Authorize.net...no money
ever was transferred, but CardService International charged
me for 8000 transactions anyway.
Even though NOTHING happened
Tony
Novak (11/18/102 9:06 AM): Rob - Since I think I qualify as
"new", I wonder if I could get some input on predatory
pop-ups ads where someone purchases ads on my website name and
says "click here to get a discount...".
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:06 AM): Cost me $2600...for
nothing. Authroize.net
identified them as fraudulent and didn't charge me anything,
but CardService International charged me and then said, "tough
luck."
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:07 AM): Go to
http://www.rippedoffbycardserviceinternational.org for the full story
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:07 AM): Tony, let's
do scameron first. IS

out what can be done about it?

(11/18/102 9:08 AM): yes
Rob

much text. get the merchandise up front.
Jonathan
Cohen (info@ghostfromthecoast.com) (11/18/102 9:08 AM): yeah
Flash is overkill
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:08 AM): Jim, so far,
the thing to do is to make sure this is as widespread as I suspect
it is. So far,
judging by the number of responses, it's a HUGE issue, which
the media will find interesting....
weber
diabetic-alternatives.com (11/18/102 9:09 AM): Good morning
all
scameron@salsastore.com
(11/18/102 9:09 AM): the logo or the flash ?
Cheryl
Lynn Spencer (info@quickorganizeme.com) (11/18/102 9:10 AM):
I personally like the logo but the flashing words are very annoying.
Pat
(phardy.com) (11/18/102 9:10 AM): scameron - the flash
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:10 AM): First, I always
recommend losing Flash.
A waste of time and actually hurts your business. Remember that at this time, the big majority of users are on
dial up connections....
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:10 AM): But you have
a MUCH bigger problem, regarding sales....
Pat
(phardy.com) (11/18/102 9:11 AM): scameron - the flash. It causes
your visitors to focus on the flash instead of your products.
ScottM
(11/18/102 9:11 AM): And change your logo graphic to tell what
it is you sell. Right
up TOP
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:12 AM): If you look
at the index page, there's no reason why you're the ONLY solution
to your users' problem.
Why would they do business with you, especially if you're
selling other people's brands?
Tony
Novak (11/18/102 9:12 AM): Entered the room.
Rob
B (robert.j.bennett@db.com) (11/18/102 9:12 AM): The navigation
set-up is a bit poor.
I don't know if I
need to go to Retail store to buy or products.
Need to make the navigation to a sale quick and easy.
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:12 AM): I like the
little guy up there. But
your store needs a reason for people to buy.
Remember, if YOU don't tell them why they should buy,
you can't expect them to figure it out on their own.
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:13 AM): These are
reasons why you're not closing sales, from what I can see. This is the branding cause. I haven't gone past the first page, but
80% of web users don't, either.
Jonathan
Cohen (info@ghostfromthecoast.com) (11/18/102 9:14 AM): scameron
- have you analyzed your logs to find out a) where people are
coming from to get to your site, and b) where they leave your
site?
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:14 AM): That's my
take, anyway. The
site is clean and nice looking.
Tony
Novak (11/18/102 9:14 AM): right, why would I buy this when
my local store has some great stuff for a couple of dollars.
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:15 AM): Scameron,
can you tell me why I should buy from you as opposed to anyone
else? It really
should be up there, way before the 100% secure message.
Jim
(sales@mscmerchandise.com) (11/18/102 9:16 AM): Entered the
room.
Jonathan
Cohen (info@ghostfromthecoast.com) (11/18/102 9:16 AM): also,
everything is described as 'hot'...can you provide a scale or
something where you rate the relative hotness of each item?
scameron@salsastore.com
(11/18/102 9:16 AM): We offer the most extensive gourmet salsa
products selection on the internet and you can order them from
one place rather then multiple sites
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:17 AM): Finally, something
else you may want to test: try a small, time-limited instant coupon on your first page.
See how many people will jump on a "today only"
offer. You can
run a JavaScript that changes the offer everyday and rotate
the offers. This
way, you can see if people are really interested in buying.
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:17 AM): Okay, Tony,
did you have a question?
Tony
Novak (11/18/102 9:18 AM): scameron, you are appealing to my
sense of adventure, to try stuff I haven't tasted before?
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:18 AM): (Send your
friends to http://www.rippedoffbycardserviceinternational.org
) <---- subliminal advertising
scameron@salsastore.com
(11/18/102 9:18 AM): Thanks
Tony
Novak (11/18/102 9:19 AM): Rob, yes, bigger companies are purchasing
predatory pop-ups on my site name "MedSave" inducing
buyers to switch sites without them realizing it.
frederick(bspage.com)
(11/18/102 9:19 AM): What's the URL. Tony
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:20 AM): Can you elaborate
Tony?
Tony
Novak (11/18/102 9:20 AM): medsave.com I do not own the trademark "medsave"
and there seem like little I can do to track these ad campaigns
weber
diabetic-alternatives.com (11/18/102 9:20 AM): Tony what do
you do?
Tony
Novak (11/18/102 9:21 AM): The pop up ads say "click here
to get a free sports radio with your order" luring customers
away
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:21 AM): Are you selling
these companies the ads?
Cheryl
Lynn Spencer (info@quickorganizeme.com) (11/18/102 9:21 AM):
scameron the site looks better already.
Tony
Novak (11/18/102 9:21 AM): no these are big national health
insurance companies or brokers
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:22 AM): I'm not clear
on where the pop ups are happening...
frederick(bspage.com)
(11/18/102 9:22 AM): I'm not seeing any popups.
Tony
Novak (11/18/102 9:23 AM): Let me back up a second. I enroll people in health insurance.
People type "Medsave.com on their browser"
When my site appears sometimes a competitor's ad appears
that does not tell them that the offer is not associated with
MedSave.com
Tony
Novak (11/18/102 9:23 AM): I got one big company to "back
off" effective this AM.
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:23 AM): Nothing pooped
up for me, Tony
Tony
Novak (11/18/102 9:24 AM): No, I see none this morning.
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:24 AM): And I have
no pop-up blockers on at all.
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:24 AM): So how are
the pop ups getting there?
Mark
(11/18/102 9:24 AM): Entered the room.
Tony
Novak (11/18/102 9:24 AM): Also, I think it depends on what
search engine you may use.
Tamra
(tamra@hcstudios.com) (11/18/102 9:24 AM): sounds to me like
Kazaa or Gator or one of the other scamware companies is selling
popups.
Rob
B (robert.j.bennett@db.com) (11/18/102 9:24 AM): I didn't get
a pop-up. And if it's your site, shouldn't you have control
of what pops up?
Mark
(11/18/102 9:25 AM): I'm not seeing any either. Could they be
from Gator and the like?
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:25 AM): Tamra, I think
you're right on this one
Tony
Novak (11/18/102 9:25 AM): Yes, but I don't have a handle on
it yet,
frederick(bspage.com)
(11/18/102 9:25 AM): Sounds like Kazaa scumware
Tamra
(tamra@hcstudios.com) (11/18/102 9:26 AM): to see if you have
the scumware on your system go to http://www.scumware.com/
Tony
Novak (11/18/102 9:26 AM): Should I be worried?
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:26 AM): If it is Kazaa
or some other scumware,
what it really means is that you're bottom-feeding for business,
because those types are usually the ones who use stuff like
that
Tony
Novak (11/18/102 9:26 AM): I estimate I lost 10k sales in October
due to this.
Jonathan
Cohen (info@ghostfromthecoast.com) (11/18/102 9:27 AM): Tony
- you could offer your customers a 'bounty' for every unique
popup they report to you...
frederick(bspage.com)
(11/18/102 9:27 AM): Rob, it wouldn't be on Tony's system -
it is on the computers of visitors.
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:27 AM): Worried?
Well, these guys are diverting traffic from you and chances
are that's what's happening. As you can see, there's nothing you can
do about it other than establishing your own brand and building
it, instead of relying on a pre-established structure, which
is where these guys live.
Tony
Novak (11/18/102 9:27 AM): I tried that a little bit but sensed
negative reaction.
frederick(bspage.com)
(11/18/102 9:28 AM): Put a big statement top of every page -
We do not use popups on this site - any popups you see are pirated.
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:29 AM): Tony, it's
like when a client of mine used to advertise in the PennySaver
and then wondered why sales were so dismal.
I told him, "what do you expect? You're advertising to freebie shoppers." When we changed the media tactic to daily
newspapers and radio, sales went from $9.95 average sale to
$59 per transaction.
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:29 AM): Frederick,
I'm betting that the unsophisticated users won't know how or
won't care.
frederick(bspage.com)
(11/18/102 9:30 AM): Exactly Rob - that's the problem with these
programs. The visitor downloads a program and doesn't realize
what he is getting.
weber
diabetic-alternatives.com (11/18/102 9:30 AM): Tony some ISP's
are offering popup killer software in the browsers, can you
get a short program that will do the same and you can load into
your pages?
Tony
Novak (11/18/102 9:30 AM): ok thanks
Tamra
(tamra@hcstudios.com) (11/18/102 9:31 AM): Tony, I did a quick
search of "medsave.com" at 6 diff search engines --
saw no popups. Has to be installed SW/scumware rather than the
SE itself.
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:31 AM): I guess the
best suggestion, tactically, would be to see if your ISP can
block pop ups from the server side....
weber
diabetic-alternatives.com (11/18/102 9:32 AM): Maybe it can
be done using .htaccess
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:32 AM): Okay, then,
who's up next? Anyone? Did I mention http://www.rippedoffbycardserviceinternational.org ?
Tamra
(tamra@hcstudios.com) (11/18/102 9:32 AM): rob, if it's scumware
I don't think the ISP can block it -- it's working on the browser
(client) not the server.
frederick(bspage.com)
(11/18/102 9:32 AM): Rob I cannot imagine that working - these
popups are not coming from Tony's ISP
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:32 AM): I was just
fishing for something to help, Tamra...
ScottM
(11/18/102 9:32 AM): If it's Kazaa (or something like it) you
can't do anything... It's
on the "surfers" computer.
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:33 AM): That's what
I figured, but sometimes, someone here rushes in with a late-breaking
bulletin....
frederick(bspage.com)
(11/18/102 9:33 AM): Scott - a statement to the effect of 'we
do not use popups' will at least alert the surfer.
Tamra
(tamra@hcstudios.com) (11/18/102 9:33 AM): Tony, is there any
way you can TM medsave.com? Might be well worth the time/cost.
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:33 AM): Anyone else
up? Mike?
ScottM
(11/18/102 9:34 AM): Exactly frederick... That's about the only thing.
weber
diabetic-alternatives.com (11/18/102 9:34 AM): There has to
be some way to check the visitors browser for scumware, and
then either stop the popups, or overwrite them with your won
stuff.
Tony
Novak (11/18/102 9:34 AM): Tamra what does "TM" man?
weber
diabetic-alternatives.com (11/18/102 9:35 AM): That should have

Rob

not, I need some good blogs and boards where I can post about http://www.rippedoffbycardserviceinternational.org
Tony

story.

post to revenge.alt
Pat
(phardy.com) (11/18/102 9:37 AM): Rob - Thanks for that idea
a few weeks ago about a mail merge program to send out reminder
e-mails to potential clients. It definitely cut down on the
amount of time I spend sending e-mails to people who have originally
shown an interest in doing business with me, but then for some
reason did not follow up afterwards.
frederick(bspage.com)

Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:37 AM): Frederick,
I'm trying to make sure honest merchants don't get burned by
anyone, including CardService International
Tony
Novak (11/18/102 9:38 AM): Pat, I also purchased a product like
this called FortuneFlow and I love it. More important, my customers and ezine list seems to love it.
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:38 AM): Pat, I'm going
to be up in Silicon Valley in early December. The first thing I did was blast out an
e-mail to clients and prospects that I would be available for
meetings. Already got one.
weber
diabetic-alternatives.com (11/18/102 9:39 AM): We left CSI several
years ago when they kept dicking with the rates. I complained
and they said "Read the contract" so we did, and left.
Pat
(phardy.com) (11/18/102 9:39 AM): Rob - you sent the e-mail
out to prospects that have already expressed and interest, right?
weber
diabetic-alternatives.com (11/18/102 9:40 AM): Rob, did CSI
charge you a fee for leaving before a year was up?
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:40 AM): Yes, Pat.
They've either expressed interest or have responded in
a way that wasn't negative.
Pat
(phardy.com) (11/18/102 9:40 AM): Tony - a small script was
written in-house to mail potential clients that seem to have
forgotten to respond.
Tamra
(tamra@hcstudios.com) (11/18/102 9:41 AM): We're using Wells
Fargo (our biz bank) and Authorize.net -- so far so good.
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:41 AM): Weber, we
need more stories like that on the site.
Pat
(phardy.com) (11/18/102 9:41 AM): Rob - Ok. Thanks. I was curious.
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:41 AM): Weber, we
haven't left yet. We're
in the process of converting
Pat

to automate as much e-mail as possible.
weber
diabetic-alternatives.com (11/18/102 9:43 AM): Rob, Did you
try the merchant account providers I sent you?
Tony
Novak (11/18/102 9:44 AM): Pat, somewhat in contrast, I find
that a good email merge program allows my to more closely target
the written response which means smaller volume batches but
higher quality content and hopefully better response.
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:44 AM): Weber, we're
surveying a number of them, including yours, thanks!

weber
diabetic-alternatives.com (11/18/102 9:45 AM): I have to say
that IMS has been very responsive. Also, since you already have
your gateway account with authorizenet there should be no additional
charge to set it up.
Pat
(phardy.com) (11/18/102 9:45 AM): Tony - each e-mail is personalized
before it is sent.
Rob
Frankel (rob@robfrankel.com) (11/18/102 9:45 AM): I'll definitely
look at IMS again, Weber, thanks.

you can pitch in December IF you remember that the pitch is
