So I was doing some searches of my files and I found some on filestube.

But what I didn't expect was that the files in there have never been published/posted anywhere...

I've only checked filestube, haven't checked any other search sites as of yet.

So I guess they are doing a Hotfile/Megaupload - where your files are leaked to file search sites?

If you aren't bothered by this, its alright, just want to let you guys know ;)

They have a scraper/bot that scans link ranges. Name doesn't matter since filesonic/fileserve files are ID based. So it just scrapes the name off the page. Pretty easy to scrape files if they're ID'd in a specific order/manner.
 
i think that filestube is the owner of wupload... they even had a big advertising for it at the begining... or if not the owner, then a good business partner at least.

looks like all files uploaded to wupload are automaticlly sent to filestube. ;)
 
I have made nearly 9$ without even sharing the files anywhere and everyday i was getting downloads.
Filesonic is leaking too...I have couple of sales too for files i had never posted anywhere
