Newbie Question

[MommieMel]

Hi all,

Looking for some info if anyone can help.....since I've been signing up for all this stuff, I'm getting a lot of emails. Which I don't mind, but these ones bug me:

They say you get something ie: free bag of M&M's, gift card etc....I fill out the info only to find out there is a Step 2 - which are Gold, Silver and bronze offers that I must complete to continue. All of them are subscription offers that have charges.

Anyone seen these, also anyone get to Step 3? (cause I did not) lol

Thanks!
Mel

DEFINITELY stay away. Scam
Don't waste your money.
Usually you can tell it's a scam ie lack of information, professionalism in website, you have to invite people, brand name products offered with no affiliation with the brands themselves.

And I'm really hoping no one goes to Step 3!

+1. When I saw those kind of'''freebies''' it's not freebie and it's to good to be true...SCAM stay away from those things

Haha I saw that kind once and I was so confused.
Basically all the offers i see people post here on good, and any micellaneous one that come in the mail aren't itsok im pretty new too :D

COOL thanks guys!!!

I wouldn't call these a freebie. They are more of a gift with subscription to several other offers. I also am not sure that they are a scam necessarily. I've never filled out the info so I don't know first hand, but if you did complete all the steps who's to say you wouldn't get the reward? These deals are definitely not worth it just to get the "freebie" gift, but assuming you actually wanted to register for their offers (gold, silver, bronze) perhaps this would be worth while?

Has anyone actually had experience to say that you wouldn't receive the gift?

I don't think its a scam SCAM, but it seems like a lot of work to earn a bag of M&M's or a Tim's card.
Just my opinion.

That is just spam don't fill that out

[MommieMel]
