Sneaky Affiliate Cheat is a new ebook/+software for affiliate marketers that covers a lot of ways the super-affiliates and product vendors are supposedly robbing average affiliates and noobs. I've read a couple of reviews of this product, I think it probably has some really good information in it. Some of the most useful info may be concerned with how to get around some of the ways product vendors avoid paying affiliates for sending visitors to their sales page: more than one form of payment, getting customers to opt-in first and then selling them via email, etc.
The author makes great use of the fear affiliates have of getting their commissions stolen out from under them. I just wonder how much of this goes on, (some for sure), and how much is fear mongering for marketing's sake.
Anybody bought this program of have any opinions?
Is the online affiliate marketing business getting so crowded that making any real money is almost getting too hard for a lot of people?
Just some thoughs.

It sounds like an interesting ebook, but I suspect most of the commission theft comes from merchants in the "work from home" area, and there are only a few products from that niche that I promote - and there really aren't trust issues for me for their products.

IM is definitely becoming way overcrowded. Just do a google search and see all the millions of sites and blogs related to this topic. 
I'm starting to look at other niches myself.

How much does this e-book cost? I've often wondered about this very topic myself. I think it would certainly be easy for product vendors to be dishonest. I mean, who would know? Of course, if they were ever found out, they could be indicted for fraud.

Thanks for some feed back guys. I did some more checking on Sneaky Affiliate Cheat and most of what I got was negative. Black hat techniques are a sure fire way to get banned from google. There may be some good info in SAC but I'm not gonna fork out the bucks for it.

Sounds like a good incentive to hold onto your credit card.
