Hi hope i'm allowed to post this thread if not am happy for it to be removed as don't want to be breaking the rules.

Anyway basically just to say that if you want an ipod for about £5, brand new no scam the websites been endorsed by bbc news as being for real, then go to:

***************************/?r=18382729

u complete one offer then get five people to do the same (hence why i'm giving people this link) i'm doing the screen select one as i get free DVDs with it, u get 14 day trial but u have to go on after that for the offer to be complete and its only about $9.99 a month and u only need to go on for 1 month. You have to be either a UK or US resident to take part i think

How can something be "relatively" free?

Surely something costs something or doesn't.

Well the ipod itself is free but to get it u need to 'complete an offer' which costs money

It's relatively free. You don't pay any money, but you agree to install spyware that will steal your soul.

no, ive heard of this one (if its the one i think it is), and i know of someone who actually got an ipod off it. the BBC had an article on their website about it explaining how it was all legit.

you sign up, sign up for an offer, for example a 30 day free DVD trial, and then cancel the trial on the 29th day, but if you have 5 referrels then you get your ipod.

know referal links are banned here, but i thought i might as well explain that one

So money is exchanged, it isn't free.

What i love about these people is that if it was a scam free deal and they need people to sign up why wouldn't their family or friends help them out? the reason they are asking random people on the net is because it is a scam. Its free yet i bet you that the first thing it asks you is give them a credit card number. then good luck with the identity theft, spam, spyware, adware, and all that comes with it. i hope this post gets deleted.

You don't actually give them any such information. The reason it works is that u have to sign up for a free trial at a website and they are betting that there must be atleast one person who likes it and keeps going with it.

the thing is, it isnt actually a scam

the company giving away the ipods makes its money from the offers you sign up to, and its obviously enough for them to be able to afford an ipod

"Want a free iPod? Go to *link* and get one, honest. It seems like a scam and looks like a scam one of the hottest accessories being given away for nothing. Where is the catch? There isn't one, and 4,500 free iPods have been shipped out so far"

True, but that just makes the item cheap, not free.
