"Worth it? TOTALLY!"
Posts: 3
Hey peeps, i'm a n00bie so be gentle to me. Anyone seen this new free ipod marketing thing that has just come to the uk. it was out in the states about a yr ago and i was jealous because it looked like a totally legitimate offer. Anyways, i'll let you guys and gals check it out for yourselves

*link removed*

Basically all you have to do is sign up for two of the offers and get 5 others to do the same. all the companies are fairly reputable (ebay-hmmm.) it apparently works on the basis that you get more people to sign up for their companies, but i can see two companies i would sign up for and i wouldn't be spending more than £2.99. now 6(u and 5others)x3 is hardly near £140 or whatever ipod minis are going for these days. so yeah, scam or not? let the debate commence!

I heard about this. I pay £3bn and they send me a iPod. I'm going to do it...

PS This reminds me of that apple machine that ate my trillion dollar bill.

heh, if you were to do the dvd rental offer and then make up a new ebay account and lose a bid, that'd work. lot cheaper than £3bn too. heck, i'm gonna do it! i'll be back to tell you if it works, yet i may not hear you because of a pair of white headphones :P

i wish :(

The fact large companies are involved should make you feel pretty safe, ebay and blockbuster would clamp down hard on anybody using their namesakes with illegal intentions.
