1/ We have released our 5-part investigation into the deceptive business practices of Max Polyakov, a British-Ukrainian tech tycoon. How exactly do these schemes for online services, ranging from dating to streaming, target people? Listen up. (THREAD)
shareholder in ClickDealer’s parent company, GDM Group Limited, at the time of this reporting, and he may financially benefit further via a United Arab Emirates shell company. ClickDealer, in theory, allows Polyakov to profit from the large base of affiliate marketers already engaged in promoting his dating websites for a variety of additional marketing tasks.
The clearest evidence of specific affiliate marketing campaigns promoting Piggy Budgets or Book Lounges comes from other smaller CPA agencies that appear to be more generous with providing details about their offers in public forums. Any of these smaller agencies can and sometimes do make direct deals with companies that want marketing, but they usually push repackaged offers provided by larger networks.
In addition to including ClickDealer, this ecosystem has several additional affiliate marketing companies linked at least indirectly to Polyakov and his dating empire. Snopes’ 2020, for example, focused on an affiliate marketing company named TopOffers that was at least on paper run by former employees of the Polyakov dating companies Together Networks or Cupid plc. TopOffers shut down a few months after that investigation was published.
By investigating Max Polyakov’s grift empire, Snopes hopes to highlight the schemes required to profit from deceptive online business practices and help unwitting people avoid becoming victims.A recurring theme found in online complaints from people duped by a Piggy Budget or a Book Lounge is that banks ultimately declined to refund the money taken in these operations.
