It's not a scam, but I would most definitely ignore deals like this.
How is it not a scam if they guarantee REAL visitors to your site?

If they are in fact real visitors, statistics wouldn't show 0 seconds on the site a 100% bounce rate and no navigation beyond your index page for all 1000 visitors.

That to me shows the "visitors" are never actually even seeing your site to begin with. It's more than likely being loaded in an iframe or something similar.

Either way, they are not real visits to your site and therefore they should not be making the claim they are.
