RobMk6 Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 I quite often find things like this while browsing ebay.... CLICKY whats the score with these? are they real? I mean surely companies wont be giving away things like New Xboxes, TVs, Laptops, Iphones etc..... surey if they were free everyone would do it?

ScORTED Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 these people are selling information to send you to data harvesting websites that collect info from idiots... basically you create a web page claiming to give away something desirable in exchange for signing up to 10 things or signing up ten people. basically a pyramid scheme bu tthen you sell the info you collected to the highest bidder, everyone gets spam Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig855S Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 It'll be one of those things that involve you and 10 of your friends signing up to 5 premium websites such as lovefilm etc...So its not free, you'll give this guy 99p and receive nothing in return unless you have 10 mates dumb enough to do it too.

RobMk6 Posted January 4, 2011 Author Share Posted January 4, 2011 See I thought as much as I've read these things before, just wondering if it could maybe something relatively simple just as the cost of say a certain T.V is £600 and the xbox live is about £40, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
