Free iPod? No Way
Way!
I was just scanning Wired News and came across an article on a legitimate, if not surprising offer for free iPods. I went for it because people are apparently receiving their iPods with few if any strings attached.
Here's the deal: All Free iPods requires is that a) you participate in some push advertising; b) refer the Free iPod site to five of your friends; and c) participate in at least one of their advertiser's programs, (CD/MP3 clubs etc.) All of these programs have some nominal shipping and handling fees (mine was $6.95) but their little commitments are easy to get out of if you remember to cancel in the prescribed time period!
In any case, as soon as I receive my "free CD's", I'll immediately cancel the "club membership" and wait for my almost-free iPod. If you're interested, here's the link [>]
Get through fast:
1) Answer "No" to first 6 "push ads" they have no impact on your application (don't do the poem!). 2) refer 5 friends--it appears 5 legit references will get you the iPod. 3) Review all final "program" ads for their cancellation policies--choose at least one program (the easiest escape seems to be PC Learning CDs). Copy and paste program cancellation policy for future reference. By clicking through the first six ads, the whole thing takes about 5 minutes. I emailed my five friends--four went for it--working on fifth.
