If this is new to you - A prospect would click onto your link, and make a purchase, but you would not get credited for it. I wonder about your knowledge or doubt about how much of something like this is happening today. Thanks

As far as I can tell, it's not an issue now (with Amazon, anyway); I am able to spot-check the system when people tell me about orders they made. Invariably, I find that the order has been correctly credited to me.
