Free Offers.


Question Posted Friday December 2 2005, 7:34 am

You know them free offer ad's where you have to hit something and then they say you get something free. Do they really work has anyone here ever tried them and they actually got a laptop, or ipod from them or are they just a scam ?

Thanks Alot. I'll rate 5's!

They are a waste of time. Don't bother with them. Also, don't listen to a majority of the idiots that said you get viruses from those ads. There are no viruses. It's just a way to get your email address on a mailing list.

Or, do what I do, get the Adblock extension for Firefox and just block ads so you never have to see them.

They say they are free, but like everything else in life, they aren't. You have to put in your credit card number- go figure.

They're just a scam. They'll ruin your e-mail or they'll keep calling your house non-stop. But in the end,..it's not worth it because you never get your ipod or laptop

well if you look closley most of hem say : FREE* with that star. the star means go down to the bottom and there it usually says "details apply" meaning, 1, its NOT free, and 2 the only thing you get 'free' of you click on it is spyware, viruses and all that junk, so no its not free, their scams.

Usually with these "free" offers, you have to do something else or purchase something to get your "free" item. Some also give your computer spyware or viruses. In my opinion, they're scams, usually not worth the time.

naimee answered Friday December 2 2005, 12:07 pm:
It's a scam, & I'm pretty sure it can cause viruses, but I'm not a computer genious so I'm honestly not sure. They aren't real though, if you click on the Free IPOD crap it'll come to a screen that says, enter your name & address, then you click next and to "win a free IPOD" you have to like sign up for a mastercard or something of that sort. Something that costs A LOT of money. It's like neverending that crap. So, I really wouldn't try it if I were you.

cheburashka answered Friday December 2 2005, 11:17 am:
it's not necessarily a virus, but it's not reliable. the thing's never really free (that's why the word free usually has a * next to it), you have to do a bunch of shit for it, answer questions and get your friends to do it too, and when you're finished you're never really guaranteed to get the thing. my advice: don't bother.
