no in the end you will have to sign up for a service, then enter your credit card or bank account number..
NOTHING WILL BE FREE .. even gifts from family aren't free. some one had to pay for them ..
"free gifts from the net" will be the ones you end up paying for and maybe more than you ever planned..
they get your bank/ cc info and they can wipe you clean

No, unless someone has a legitimate need to know something, it's best not to give them any information. In the case of strangers contacting you via email, you really have no idea who they are or whether they really are who they say they are.
The number one cause of identity theft isn't misused technology, as in thieves tapping phone lines or hanging out in router rooms intercepting private emails. It's psychology - spammers and thieves tricking people into giving out information. I can't tell you how many emails and phone calls I've received like "Hello, this is your bank; we need to talk to you, but first we need you to confirm your social security number." "Your Paypal account is in jeopardy unless you respond IMMEDIATELY and oh, by the way, we need you to input a legitimate credit card number."
And yet mysteriously, when you look at the addresses or websites that are sending those things, they aren't sent out by the bank or by Paypal or any other legitimate organization.
Thieves count on human greed, gullibility, and people having (misplaced) trust in their fellow man. Don't let them take advantage of you. Like the saying goes, "if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is".

Absolutely never trust these ads. There is always hidden agendas behind every one of these offers. Nothing is ever truly free.

Dude, never, ever respond to SPAM. That's all that that is. It's just SPAM. And most likely, its a SCAM (no rhyme intended).
