SPAMMING IS PROHIBITED!
Leading Edge Cash defines spamming with a broader scope than other affiliate programs with lower marketing standards and principles. The Leading Edge Cash definition of spam includes not only email spamming, but most other forms of unsolicited advertising as well. So please read this policy very carefully.
The following forms of unsolicited advertising are considered spam and strictly prohibited by Leading Edge Cash:
- Unsolicited commercial email (UCE) of any kind is strictly prohibited.

- This ban includes any quantity of recipients. Whether it is 1, or 1 million, it is prohibited.
- Electronic newsletters of any kind are strictly prohibited.
- This ban includes Double Opt-In Newsletters, unless prior written authorization has been received from Leading Edge Cash.
- Public Forums
- Unsolicited postings on newsgroups, message boards, chat rooms, instant chat programs, guest books, web pages, or any other public forum is strictly prohibited.
- The only exceptions to this policy are:
- Posting in public forums that you are 100% owner of.
- Posting in public forums where the owner has given you written permission.
Leading Edge Cash does NOT pay on hits from spamming. If Leading Edge Cash confirms you have promoted any of its products via any of the unsolicited advertising methods noted above, we will immediately invalidate all current sales and terminate your account without notice. Let us say it again for effect: IF YOU ARE CAUGHT PROMOTING OUR SITES WITH ANY FORM OF SPAM AS DEFINED ABOVE, YOUR ACCOUNT WILL BE TERMINATED, ALL AMOUNTS OWING WILL BE FORFEITED, and WE WILL PURSUE LEGAL ACTION.

Why is Leading Edge Cash so strict with its anti-spam measures and enforcement of its anti-spam policy?
The answer is simple: we want you to be successful and make more money in the Leading Edge Cash program. Spamming equates to a poor gamble on minor short term gains at the expense of assured long term success. Programs that condone spamming eventually end up being blacklisted and relegated to bottom feeding with slow and unreliable web hosting options - low on speed and high on downtime. We are able to secure top level, fast, reliable web hosting to serve our web pages and order pages to your productive, targeted audience because we have not sacrificed these privileges by hammering an unproductive and poor target audience with unsolicited marketing. So this policy is in the best interests of all affiliates, is a commitment to your long term success, and ensures the Leading Edge Cash program will remain a leader in the industry. We appreciate your cooperation.
