You are prohibited from attempting to obtain remuneration by unfair methods or inadmissible means. Procuring transactions themselves or through a third party to obtain commission is considered fraud. Pretending or faking transactions, e.g. by providing false data, non-existing data or third party data without authorization when ordering goods or registering online, is strictly forbidden.
Also, it is prohibited to fraudulently pretend or fake activity on the Micro-Blog, in an automated, unreasonable or any other way, at an unusually high rate of messages and with the bare intention to maximize the number of delivered Advertisements. Furthermore, a Micro-Blog which merely reproduces other sources, e.g. by aggregating one or more RSS feeds, does not qualify for participation in the ChurpChurp Network. Any form of misuse will lead to immediate blocking of the Publisher's account. Within 4 weeks, the Publisher may raise an objection in written form (e-mail, letter, fax) in order to explain the incident and provide evidence that her behavior has been in accordance with these Terms and Conditions. If the Publisher is not able to refute the allegation, the termination of her account will be issued. In such a case, the Publisher will not be entitled to any remuneration. Any damage caused by the Publisher's violation of these Terms and Conditions may result in further legal actions.

You agree and understand that sharing Your personal links with misleading messages and/or on dubious websites such as pornography websites (but not limited to) as well as using any suspicious automated programs to drive traffic to your links will consequently cause your earnings/ account to be suspended.
