Title: Email offering to advertise on my website
Post by: Paul Simpson on September 21, 2009, 04:14:49 pm

Had an email from email address "onlinemarketingads" claiming their client is interested in advertising on my website.

Reads
"I represent a company whose interests include operating a successful, reputable games-related website. Our client would like to purchase advertising on your website. Please contact us to discuss this possibility in further detail. We look forward to your response"

Looks a bit suspect to me with a lack of detail, i.e. no header or business name and my site isn't exactly drawing in 1000's of hits a week.
Wondered if anyone had anything similar before I waste my time responding.

Hi Paul

I too have had these emails .

If it's a gambling site Google will penalise you for linking to it, stay well clear.

Cheers
