24-year-old spammer on Pinterest earns thousands of dollars every day

24-year-old anonymous spammer has built thousands of daily earnings using the new social network Pinterest.

According to The Daily Dot , the guy who called himself Steve uses a network of spam bots that are tied to his affiliate account on Amazon. According to him, he used to earn money through spam through Facebook and Twitter, however, he discovered Pinterest for several months and realized that he was making much more money on spam.

Hundreds of bots, which he manages, publish pictures of clothes and shoes, like and repost these records, attracting the attention of visitors to the service. Steve gets a percentage of each sale on Amazon if a person clicks on his picture on Pinterest and makes a purchase of one or another product.

The guy said that this is only the beginning, and soon more bots will rush to Pinterest, despite the fact that you can register on the site only by invitation.

Let me remind you that this month, Pinterest began to generate more traffic than Twitter, as it became the favorite of women's magazines and online stores.
