IP Addresses And Kelkoo Scam Maybe ?

[Big Game Hunter]

I have an issue with the first invoice we have recived from Kelkoo. First off there click through rate seems way off & my conversion rate hasn't changed, this caused me to become suspicous and dig a little deeper into the info.

What they have sent through is a spreadsheet of where our traffic came from, which is fine. But i have spotted a little discrepancy within the stats when it comes to the IP addresses where the clicks are coming from .

I know this is not Actinic related, but i thought if i could some of your expert advice on this as i'm no great networker. You will see there seems to be hell of a lot of the same ip Address or the same IP with just one digit change at the end.

Do ISP's make your IP static when you browsing the web, in my mind i would have though there would be hundreds of differnt IP's. But alas the same with just the end digit changing. It just doesn't seem right ????

If anyone who knows anything about IP's can shed some light on this, i would really appreciate it.

Cheers for the help... (sorry it's not actinic related, but at least i can stop anyone else getting scammed by these guys if anyones using them on the community.)

The Spreadsheet is attached for anyone to have a browse through.. I couldn't put the full spec on, it's to large.

Cheers

You can look up the IPs here:

The ones I looked up looked correct.

no problem to ask this type of question, but it should be in the any other business or ecommerce issues forum

I looked at a couple of the bigger repeated blocks and they were NTL and Energis. Nothing wrong there, as they are major ISP providers, and all their customers will have similar IP addresses.

That's Why I Asked..

Thank you chaps..

As usual informative... I just got hit with a massive bill and i'm sure as anyone would do, i went through it with a fine tooth comb. Thanks for clearing up those IP questions though.

Jo i will keep in mind the other forum for these types of questions, thanks for pointing that out...

Cheers Again

AOL & NTL use block or Proxy IPs
