Wonder what happened to ole renown Internet Marketer Shawn Hogan. Founder of Digital Point

As some of you know, he spent like 4 or 5 months in Federal Prison back in 2014 for Cookie Stuffing with Ebay and making well over $25 million in Ebay Affiliate Earnings over a period of a few years.

He always said he was totally open about what he was doing and Ebay knew and even encouraged him to continue.

Interesting case to say the least

        No, just crossed my Mind earlier this morning while looking at an old email I sent to my List. Hadn't heard anything about him lately. Just wondering what he has been doing with Digital Point etc..since being out of the Pen the last 2 years ?

    I wonder if he got to keep the money?

    I'll tell you right now that for 25 million dollars I would do 5 months in a federal prison (country club) ALL DAY LONG!

    About ten years ago my cousin got involved with some organized crime people and ended up getting caught up and had to do 2 years in a federal prison.

    I remember him writing me telling me how he couldn't believe how comfortable it was. They had cable TV, pool tables, card tables (actual card tables with felt tops), ping pong tables, a softball league, arts & crafts classes, library & computer room with internet access, commissary where they could buy candy, baked goods, potato chips, etc. He even said the food was decent.

    So I ask you -- Does crime pay?

    The answer is YES, sometimes it does!

          Are you protecting your on line business? If you have a website, blog, ecommerce store you NEED to back it up regularly. Your webhost will only protect you so much. Check out Quirkel. Protect yourself.

    I actually like the guy. He found a way to make money and did. Was it foolish? Yes. Would anyone else do the same thing if they had the chance? 99% of members here would.

    I remember a lot of sites that were cookie stuffed, and not all that long ago either. I didn't know that it would land a person in prison?
