iPod Thread

[Splize]

I dont understand

[Edea]

I don't usually do these things but I decided to check it out.

So I sign up using the link above which, of course, is a referral link.

As I check out these "free trial offers" I find that most are not completely free. Also from what I understand you cannot cancel right away. For example:

Blockbuster Video--->"To receive credit you must register, select movies and remain an active member during the 2 week trial. Upon completion of the 2 week trial, you will receive credit"

USA Today---> "Order any subscription to the USA TODAY! You will receive credit within 2-3 days. "

And you also have to have 5 friends actually sign up for the offer. This is the notice I get when I check the status page:
||Referral Status:
You have not completed your requirements.
Click here to refer five (5) friends to be eligible to receive your free iPod.*

* Your referrals must sign up and complete one offer. ||


I'm not saying it's a bad thing, only that it's not as simple as it may sound.

Now in the old days this thread would be gone in a sec, and so would be the user (banned)...

Guess times have changed. BUT... the referral link is gone. I won't help him succeed in this scam.

GHDpro is here

i remember this thingy from some other forums ~_~ i'll sign up but doesn't ship to australia apparently

The thread remains open as a "trial" basis. If people start using it for spamming purposes it will be gone.

[ssj-jonny]

something like this happened in UK, it was get a new phone for £10.. naturally 200 people had to sign up for the first person to get a phone... is this similar

i deem it - SCAMOLA

If you try to scam them with multiple emails, they usually find out.

And then complete five offers with all five accounts?
Even the ancestory.com--I am not signing up for anything that needs credit card information for a free trial.

You can use mine if you want. PM or e-mail me if you&#39;re still interested.Shipping it back to Australia shouldn&#39;t be more than 10-15 dollars.
