Don't do it, don't do it!! Stupid me did it and I got about a zillion e-mails every day wanting me to buy this and do this and attend this school. It was a nightmare. For 30 minutes every night I would delete all these messages. I wanted to see what the computer thing was all about but I never dreamed it was about that. Yeah, I guess it was a scam. All that misery and I never got a "free" computer. And, if I did, it wouldn't have been worth it. Smart you, checking it out first.

Don't you learn the lesson? Why do you keep asking these type of questions? This is like the 3rd question. Listen these are all scams you not going to win anything.
Be smart on when and who you want to share your personal information to!

thats a popup that could lead to a virus sent by a hacker trying to steal information like your real name, social security no., and where you stay. then sometimes, it comes from companies that might actually send you a laptop, but it won't be free. you have to sign up for something and pay some type of money. just enable your popups and you shouldn't get it anymore. sometimes you have to disable your popups for certain websites, but enable them when you don't need them...

It is the threshold to filling your mailbox with SPAM. They get your e-mail addie and then sell it to all kinds of folks who send your weird messages about meds without prescriptions, more places to leave your e-mail addie, and outright scams that want your money. Just close it and get a pop up blocker.

SCAM! Don't click on anything. They want your personal information, never give it to them.
