For those that don’t know a FlogÂ is a Fake Blog used by unscrupulous affiliate marketers to trick unsuspecting Internet browsers looking for reviews on specific products and services.

The Flog looks like a real BLOG with unique and POSITIVE reviews & comments on a product or service in order to entice the user to click on an affiliate link and purchase the product and service.

Recently Lisa Madigan (Illinois Attorney General) files lawsuits against ACAI Berry Companies

Even Oprah is in this action.. 🙂

I say HURRAY to ethical online marketingÂ ,

and Bye Bye to floggers…
