Are real? It was just on the news one day, and then this guy on YouTube recorded it. It showed us that those ads that say things such as, "guess the actor and win an ipod nano" are real . They said once you follow the instructions they want you to proceed to(such as email address, tele-cell-phone number etc.), they will send out the prize that they promised you! No joke! I'm not kidding. Which means a lot of people who doesn't have Xbox 360s or Ipod nanos right now could have probably been winning them free right now. Me on the other hand, I will take my chances and continue avoiding those ads, just to be safe.

I know they are real, but they take a lot of answers to get to the place where you get what they are trying to give you. I tried that once for something, got about halfway through and saw the questions they wanted me to answer and decided I could do without the so called "gift".

The problem I have with such ads is I get bored with all of the stuff they ask the "winner" to do.

maximum international places have web pages (many times government run/presented) the place you are able to learn issues like this before dealing with them. My son had a message left on his cellular asking him to touch a employer and as quickly as we regarded them up, they have been approximately superannuation, which considering he's a student teen, does not precisely be conscious! we don't be attentive to how they knew his call yet it grew to become into needless to say going to be a rip-off and learn at our government website gave indications that this employer grew to become into going to be listed for scamming rather quickly. If all you gave them grew to become into call and handle, no credit card info, you're probably rather risk-free yet it would pay to have a communique on your close by police besides.

I made the mistake of trying to get coupons for free Tide laundry detergent, by filling out a "survey"......I filled out over 30 pages of crap and got 2000+ spam ads and never got even one regular coupon for Tide.
I think it's just a rotten trick and the people who put them out are jerks!!!!

Yeah, and they have a documentary on spam running on cable this week. Seems as if the Almighty Dollar and the lust that goes with it can't be satisfied.

Sometimes they take you thru never ending surveys till you feel like screaming then you click off cause you can't stand it anymore so you lose the prize
