Just receive an update from My Power Mall.
The plan to email bomb Oprah is still a go!
My last post, I warned against this and mentioned some of the consequences people may suffer as a result of this attack.
Here's is the actual words from the My Power Mall newsletter.
=============================
"Now, I have the perfect gift that all of you can give ME on the 19th... I talked about this on the call Monday night and thought we might do it this week, but I've decided to wait until the 19th and make it a huge Birthday Gift to ALL of My Power Mall. I'm also waiting because I want some of the gifts I'm giving you to be fully operational before we do this.
Here's what I want to do... On March 19th I am going to ask all of you to send emails to Oprah, Ellen, Larry King, and whoever else I decide to add to the mix. I will have a list of their emails, and phone #'s if it is appropriate. We are going to do a concentrated "assault" on these national media operations - letting them know about My Power Mall and Together We Can Change The World, Inc.
I figure thousands of emails flowing in during one day will get their attention. :) I realize, though, that it could take time so we're going to be strategic... Every Wednesday, for as long as it takes we are going to inundate these folks with emails, asking them to help us change the world. Eventually they'll help us - just to stop the flood of emails. :) Just think, every week there will be MORE emails coming in as more people join us!
Please use the next 9 days to write the letter you want to send to these folks. I'm not going to give you some "canned email". I want you to share your passion and belief in our company in your own words - not mine. Your Birthday Present to me will be empowering me to fulfill my mission of changing the world in a more powerful way!"
=============================
Here's a link to a story in which a person was convicted when he email bombed his ex-employer bringing down their mail servers.

So again, just a little WARNING to you if you're planning to be involved with this organized "assault" on Oprah, Larry King and others.
I'm completely shocked that Ginny, the CEO of My Power Mall would be asking all members to place themselves in possible legal jeopardy for the sole benefit of herself and her company.
At the very lease, you could end up with your email address being listed as a spammer and being blocked across various ISP's.
I strongly suggest that you NOT participate in this!
Why Doesn't My Power Mall Credit Members For All Signups?
Good question, or at least I think so.
Apparently, after numerous corporate meetings, My Power Mall leaders have decided that they would NOT implement cookies to track any signups.
I'm not exactly sure how those corporate meetings would go, maybe something like...
"Should we implement cookies on our website so members get credit for signups they send that do not join immediately"
"No, this way we won't have to pay out those commissions when new members join directly under the corporate account instead of under existing members"
"What if they ask about this"
"Just tell them that it is a very small number that actually joins later and they really aren't losing many signups"
Ok, I'm sure it didn't go exactly like that. Possibly close but not exactly.
Honestly, I can't think of any good reason for a company not wanting to set a cookie so their member get credit for ALL joins they send.
This especially doesn't make sense with the whole overall theme of My Power Mall being to help people. Uh, here's an idea... HELP PEOPLE GET CREDIT FOR THE SIGNUPS THEY SEND!!!
If it's really not that many signups, why wouldn't they just set the cookies and let members get the credit they DESERVE.
Think about THIS.
How many of YOU joined, the very first time you were exposed to the My Power Mall opportunity???
Many people will want to research it a bit, maybe talk it over with their spouses, sleep on it, etc.. before committing. Do you think they bookmarked your website??
Maybe, maybe not.
Maybe they will just go to Google and search for My Power Mall and guess what... you just lost your signup because mypowermall.com is listed FIRST!!
There is NO other affiliate program I can think of that doesn't cookie the visitor or track in SOME WAY that will credit the rightful referrer of each signup/sale.
Tacky business operations in my humble opinion

Email Bombing Oprah About My Power Mall Is DANGERIOUS!!
If you are a My Power Mall member, I'm sure you received a notification about it being My Power Malls birthday March 19th and for HER present, Ginny would like all members to email Oprah, Larry King and who ever else she decides on.
STUPID, STUPID, STUPID!!!
While that most certainly would be a most excellent birthday present for HER, what's it going to do to YOUR business???? Have you even thought for one SECOND about THAT??
If millions of Oprah and Larry King watchers, rush to sign up, where do you think they are going to go?? They are going to mypowermall.com, NOT your signup page.
You've just helped take possibly thousands or even hundreds of thousands of potential downline members out of the pool and placed them directly under the My Power Mall corporate account.
NOT smart in my humble opinion
SECONDLY,
You better be very aware of the CAN SPAM ACT and Cyber Terrorism laws.
Asking a hundred thousand plus my power mall members to email bomb any person or persons is similar to a coordinated DOS attack and may fall under cyber terrorism laws. She even states that eventually these news media sources will fold if for no other reason than to stop the influx of emails.
Putting my power mall members in potential legal jeopardy does not speak well for the leadership and decision making abilities of this organization.
Be warned and be careful if you plan on participating in this coordinated email bombing campaign. I strongly advise AGAINST it.
