Have you experienced this?

Ok. So when I first started out with my fb page, I didn't really know what I was doing with it. I felt a bit silly having no likes so I bought some. Since then i have had a bit of spam to deal with from a few of the fake likers, who I banned.

Now, I'm using my page properly. I still have a lot of the fake likes but I also have a lot of genuine likes. I've been running a campaigns over the past few days to get people to sign up to my mailing list for my main website.

The mailing list campaign wasn't working. I was trying to entice them into sign up for a newsletter in exchange for a free ebook through a custom made tabs at the top of the page. But nobody was signing up.

So this morning, I tried a ppc promotion box which sent them directly to the sign up page of my website, and pinned it to the top of my fb page. The first few were genuine. But now I have had a sudden influx of Asian names.

Now, it's not that Asians aren't allowed to sign up to my list, but the people my niche tends to attract are predominantly westerners. They are also all coming at once, not like the steady drip-drip-drip like the other names were. Which has made me feel :confused:. I've now taken the promotion down because I am not paying for dodgy signups!

Any ideas as to why this is happening? I'm guessing it has something to do with the fake likers but I have no idea what they would be gaining out of it.

Edit - I've just been looking on my autoresponder and they aren't confirming their email addresses (I have a double opt in). Wtf?

Also, one of my thoughts were that maybe one of the fake likers may have had an interest in the book, and posted a link somewhere, but even though I have taken the promo box down, there is still big tab at the top screaming "FREE BOOK" and posts advertising it. I think if they were at all genuine they would have clicked the tab. But no, they were only interested in the PPC box.

Perplexing...
