A new deal has hit the web. This is from the same people who gave out
the free iPods a while back. They renamed there company to FreePay.
This is so simple tho, just go to the site. And do the Video Professor
offer. Why? Becuase #1, it is the cheapest, and DOESNT put you on those
monthly payment things. Its simple..signup and get laptop

I got my free iPod, now it's laptop time.

you can too!

If it's so good why did you spam so many newsgroups. Why did they
change their name? Did they rip people off.

If it sounds too good to be true then it usually is. This is too good
to be true. Keep your f***ing free laptop.

I hadn't really given it much thought, but now that it's brought up,
I realize that while we saw posts like the original quite often at
some point, I've not seen one in a long time. But clearly they are
back at it, or else we'd not see a post about it.

I saw this guy post elsewhere too, and someone else was asking if
it was legitimate in yet another newsgroup.

Remember www.studiotraffic.com and the big rip-off it turned out to be?

I got a free iPod from a Citibank promotion. The deal was you had to
open an online account, keep it open for a year, and pay two bills
electronically every month from it. The minimum amount was $2,000.

I deposited the $2,000, set up the autopayment option to send myself
two $10 checks every month for a year and then closed the account. The
iPod was probably worth $250 at that time. I still have it and get a
lot of enjoyment out of it.

I suppose if I were a sharp investor, I could have made more than $250
on the $2,000 capital for a year. In addition, the initial account set
up was a hassle and if you had any questions or problems you had to
talk to someone in India who didn't speak English.

In retrospect, I probably should have just bought one :-) But it
seemed such an extravagance and this way I could rationalize it as
"free".

Well, people should also look at the "Terms of Service". They can
change the number of "offers" at any time for any reason without
notice. It is too good to be true. Look at all the hoops you have to
jump through
not to mention having to drag 20 friends into this thing.
