Trouble with CDs skipping on the trail? Get an iPod almost free...

[jpdeuce]

Firstly, I'm wanting to avoid any kind of uproar about an opportunity like this posted to our site. That's why I am keeping it in the right spot and not spamming all of the boards with this info. I truly believe in this opportunity and I have friends who have gotten $300 iPods at the cost of a little bit of time and less than $20. If you are interested then keep reading...if you don't believe me then move on. iPods are very cool, and great for 4wheeling trips when the CD player won't read the CDs and you can't get anything on the radio.

This message is long...just read through it...and then walk through it on their site and you will see it's a lot easier than it sounds. If you have any specific questions about any part of this email me at pricej02@yahoo.com.

Here's the basics...I'll tell you a little about the process and then I've got a bunch of sites listed that you can get more information about. There's a company called Gratis...they basically are a big referral company...they make their money by getting referrals for other companies. They make enough money off referrals that they can give away stuff like this by the numbers of referrals' information that this thing generates.

So, what each person is required to do is get 5 people to complete one of the offers from the link I will give you. There are TONS of offers...some of them are completely free, some of them you
just pay for shipping (about 6 or 7 bucks) and some of them you just have to complete a small purchase. The best offers (quickest response...quickest credit for completing an offer) are the ones where you pay a little bit of money for the offer...you can get books, coffee,
etc... So all you have to do is get 5 people to sign up under your
link...complete an offer...and that's it...you get an iPod. And it's not like a refurbished product, or whatever, you get a brand new iPod from Apple or HP...whoever is making it now.

So you're interested, now what to do...click on the link after this paragraph. Pick whichever iPod you want (you can change it later) enter your information to create an account...look through the offers and pick one (you can pick one at this time or later...don't have to do anything right away...you can click through each offer and see what it is about also). You will be sent an email to the address you
provide...you will need to confirm your account by clicking on the email that is sent to you. It took a few hours for them to send the email, but in the "My Account" section you can click a link for them to send you another "confirmation email". I know this sounds confusing, but just have this email open while you walk through it...it's pretty easy.

Here's my link with my referral #:

About the "offers"...do whatever you like, you can cancel any of them after you sign up and get credit. I did the Boca Java offer, got credit for it in 2 minutes, and I got some coffee that I would end up buying anyway.

Here's some links to information to show that this thing is definitely for real. Obviously if you get friends to sign up and you walk them through it like I have with you, you have a much better chance of getting a good referral with a completed offer. If you just go out
and spam bulletin boards and stuff then you prolly won't get someone to complete an offer and you might get your account deleted...they don't like that very much. Anyway, any questions you have let me know.

Ok, since you're a Scrambler guy, I actually tried one of these too-good-to be true things for the first time against my better judgement (I did NOT use my main email address and would advise anyone else to do the same).

I signed up with your referral and did the Ancestry.com offer because it was immediate and free. I called them up immediately after filling in the offer online (which does require a credit card, but supposedly won't charge it) and cancelled my trial subscription (after politely listening to the woman try to tell me why not to cancel)

I have a confirmation number of the cancellation.

I'd like to know if you have gotten credit for my dealio or not, please reply and let me know.

Thanks for trying it out...I know exactly what you mean about your "better judgement". I never believe in these things, but because of all the exposure it has gotten from reputable sources I signed up for my buddy. I wanted to wait until he actually got his iPod before I put up any links...and recently he did get his. So I think it's worth my time.

I will check and see if you got credit for completing an offer. Some of them take a couple days for it to show up. Each offer is different. But if you have the information necessary to prove you completed it then eventually I will get the credit. I'll let you know.

I also recommend the same thing BigWalton did...don't use your primary or work email address. It needs to be a real email address...and you will need to confirm the email address by responding to an email sent to you...but don't use a primary email address.

Thanks for the trust BigWalt...I'll keep you updated. Again...any questions about this - pricej02@yahoo.com

Response in FAQ section about completing an offer and cancelling right away:

I completed this offer but canceled right away.
We are able to give away free products by sending our advertisers potential new customers. We cannot operate our site if users simply join a site or service with the intent to quit only to receive their free product. Since we are 100% funded by our advertisers, we rely on their money to pay for your free product(s) and free shipping as well. We track who stays with an offer, and who does not. Please only click on offers you have a true interest in trying, and those who join and cancel right away run the risk of not getting credit, having your credit reversed, or even being placed on hold.

So...if you don't see an offer you are interested in...don't complete an offer. Actually, the offers change periodically...they rotate...so if you don't see one you like today...check back in a couple days...or at a different time of day until you find one you like. Some of these cost less than 20 bucks and offer legitimate/good products like coffee or books, etc... The subscription ones are prolly the worst offers because of the ambiguity of how long you are a member, etc...

The best offer is the Infone offer...it's free if you don't use it and it's also intant credit...basically you sign up for some voice over IP service...you get 5 free calls and then they charge after the 5...well you don't have to ever make the 5 calls.

Anyway, that one I think is the best. The other ones I think are good are the Vitamin one, the coffee one and the bestseller book one. But, if you cancel the same day that you sign up, I wouldn't expect to get credit...I think Gratis is cracking down on that as you can see by the response in their FAQ section.

Obviously they are holding up their end of the deal...they want to make sure we hold up our end. Thanks for trying it out and helping. Yes there are hoops to jump through...but if you do you get the iPod...so it's worth it to me.
