Sorry to say this but the quiz shows will only RIP YOU OFF if you let them, DO NOT RING THE BLOODY THINGS

I spoke with someone from the my states Attorneys' Generals office today about Midnight Money Madness, they were following up on a concern I submitted to them after the show first aired. If the show truly do make internet registrants one-third of the contestants, then it is legal and not gambling. My state is going to check to see that they do.
Regardless I think it is a huge rip-off and can have drastic negative financial impact on someone with an addictive personality. You could probably call 50 times a show (=-$50 to the player) or more, even hundreds of times, and not get to answer a question, even though their rules page say your odds are 1:10. Bull Ship! No I don't want to hit them but I totally believe they are a big time unscrupulous rip-off, con & fraud.

I don't want to hit the presenters, I think they do a great job. Why watch it if you feel that way? You can enter for free on the internet anyway so how is that a rip-off? Go to bed, spotty.

I think Debbie King is Lovely. You woman beater and coward. go to the board room and punch the producer, they are just doing a job and it's a hard market to break into. Get a sky box and don't hit women

Debbie King actually devised that show as well as being a presenter on it. But I've got to let her off because, well look at her...................

they are not ripping you off.
if you phone up then you are gambling so there is always a risk you will come away with nothing. you know the cost of the call before you dial so how are you bieng ripped off?
