How do they do it?
They first buy popunders or paid clicks on get paid to sites with very low price, lower than they charge you. They might be buying 100 visits for $0.01 and sell it to you for $0.05. The traffic will visit your seller webpage, and then he can put iframe in there. These iframe basically open your page and can be hidden so their user can’t see the iframe. This way you will get traffic but there are no people looking at your site. They can put several iframes in the page and make more profit from there. They can buy 100 visits for 5 cents and then put 2 iframe in it. So buy 100 traffics for 5 cents then sell it for 10 cents. It’s a 100% profit.
