Yes, Walmart Credit Card Machines Are Down NationWide!

Minutes ago I walked into a Walmart on Tropicana Ave in Las Vegas, Nevada and the workers at the door said,” We are only taking cash payments because our credit card machines are down”. I asked are the Walmart Credit Machines down just in this store and the workers responded, “No, the Walmart Credit Card Machines are down nationwide.” I thought to myself, WOW! This is pretty unbeleivable.
I shared with the Wamart workers I needed to get some medication. They suggested I go to the Bank of America at the other end of the parking lot in order to use their ATM machine. I noticed a Citibank was closer so I pulled in to their parking lot. I shared with the teller that all the Walmart Credit Card Machines were down and they responded, Bank of America is down too!
My friend Danny Cahill texted me saying Wikipedia is also down. I don’t know what is going on but this sure sounds like a cyber attack to me. As of this writing which is 3:29 PM  Pacific Coast Time, I have see nothing on the news or online about this.

I hope Walmart gets their Credit Card Machines working soon! They must be losing thousands of dollars a second!

What IS AFFILIATE SUMMIT?
“Affiliate Summit is the leading Global Conference and Tradeshow for the Affiliate Marketing Industry.” The very first Affiliate Summit took place in November 2003 in New York City. This first event had a total of 200 people! Affiliate Summit has continued to grow leaps and bounds every year since then.Affiliate Summit West 2012 in Las Vegas Nevada

That’s correct… Over 5,000 people attended this years Affiliate Summit East 2012 in Las Vegas. The event was held at Caesars Palace, right in the heart of the Las Vegas Strip! From those 5,000 plus attendees, 32% were actual affiliates! How exciting is that? The remainder of the attendees were made up of Vendors, Networks,Agencys, and Merchants.

This event is for the Newbie Affiliate Marketer to the The Super Affiliate!
For the Newbies they got the tools and training to get started as an affiliate marketer. This included how to get started to how and where to get traffic. The advanced Affiliate Marketer attendee cut deals with Vendors and Networked with with other Super Affiliates which ALWAYS leads to more business and additional money making opportunites!

Shawn Collins and Missy Ward have continued to grow with the times.

Over the years I had heard people talking about Affiliate Summit, but I was never in town at the time of the event. Last year I was going to attend and I waited to long to register as media and it was SOLD OUT!I was pissed! So I was determinded not to miss it this year.

I cover events all over Las Vegas for www.LasVegasNewsBlog.com It’s an exciting town. I am REALLY glad to have finally attended Affiliate Summit. My only regret is, that I did not upgrade my ticket to GOLD so I could attend all the trainings and educational sessions.

The rules and regulations online change with the wind and to have training sessions that explain the latest changes, developments and opportunities is priceless. To be able to hear super affiliates openly talk about what is working for them NOW is AWESOME!

The super stars of Affiliate Marketing show up! They are ROCK Stars at this event! You just never know who is going to show up and out of the blueI bumped into the one and only Mathew Lesko! A true world class infomercial pitchman!

Besides the training, the BEST thing at an event like this is the Quality NETWORKING! As I opend my email this morning, I got an email from the legend himself, Mathew Lesko! He liked our coversation and wanted do some further business with me!

SO WITH THAT In MIND, HERE ARE THE DATES FOR THE NEXT AFFILIATE SUMMIT.
– Affiliate Summit Central is taking place in Austin, TX on May 15-16, 2012 at the Hilton Austin.
