I had my own affiliate program where I offered 1.25 per signup for my free bingo tournaments. There was an affiliate that managed to take credit for EVERY single player with a particular cgi.user_agent (which indicated the presence of a particular piece of spyware which comes with many common shareware programs) to the tune of well over 1000 signups / month. Many of those players showed regular Google searches as the http_referer and this is long before gambling was allowed on adwords. When I did a search on it, I only found a handful of others who had noticed the scam. I complained to the affiliate network and passed the information on to law enforcement but nothing came of it. I don’t think they could get their heads around it.
Thanks for sharing bingoadvantage… Law Enforcement even got involved. Gheez… I never want to get on your bad side 
Are you still running your Affiliate Program opp?
