[edit] Genbucks morphs to E-Tranz

Since all of the publicity brought on the Genbucks operation by the BBC, it has had to change its face. The new Affiliate Agreement is with E-TRANZ in Mauritius, at http://www.etranzmu.com/affiliateagreement/

[edit] Genbucks and SanCash

SanCash is the sponsorship and affiliate program which is more directly tied to the email spam promotion of products such as Elite Herbal, ManXL, Manster, VPXL, Express Herbal and MaxHerbal, as well as the replica watch properties Prestige Replicas, Diamond Replica, and King Replica. GenBucks is the more public-facing entity which never mentions these products or anything related to email spam. This is a pattern we have noticed between GenBucks / SanCash (public / private programs) as well as Glavmed / Spamit (another competing public / private sponsorship, responsible for an array of different products.)

It is more correct to state that the spam we have all been seeing for these above-mentioned products is on behalf of Spamit (aka: Etranzmu) rather than GenBucks, who tend to focus on lesser known properties, and only focus on discussions related to website or banner advertising. They are related companies, they just attempt to remain more underground and less easy to investigate, compared with GenBucks.
