free Ipods (Red02 I kid you not it's for real)

Andrevas · 01-September-04, 11:03 PM

Before any of you mods/admins go off and lock this one too, let me be the one to tell you it's for real and my friend has already recieved his.

Click "NO" to the 11 mini-offer questions which pop up. Then when it give you the choices of the offers you must pick one of, pick the ancestry.com 14-day free trial offer. You will need a credit card to sign up for the trial offer, but they are an established reputable company that I've worked with before, for Google Answers researching, and will honor your free trial cancellation request. It is the easiest offer to cancel, and you assume NO risk unlike some of the other offers such as the 5 DVDs for $.49. Alternatively if you need a credit card, you can sign up for a GM Card with no annual fee, or a Citi Platinum Card if you're a college student. I already have enough credit cards so I just did the ancestry.com one. note: if you do one of the credit card signups you will assume no financial risk, but I hear carrying many credit cards may impact your personal credit rating 4. Send the offer to 5 friends who are willing to go through this same process. Alternately you can use the referral link that they give you to send to friends through IM/email/etc. like the way I did above. This is a pyramid-type marketing strategy which makes money on the fact that not everybody is going to find 5 people to propagate offers too so they'll never collect their reward. This would be an added risk to people signing up IF they didn't have an offer which you could cancel without risk (i.e. the ancestrry.com offer). Because you can cancel without risk, you don't have to worry about actually paying for anything as long as you remember to cancel (see next step). Or you could have just signed up for a credit card if you didn't have one or wanted another (see above). You can only receive ONE iPod maximum, so when I receive 5 people with confirmed offer acceptances (you can see how many more you need to be done) I will be changing/removing my referral link. 5. In 5 days, or whenever you see that your offer acceptance has been marked successful call ancestry.com at 1-800-262-3787 to cancel your subscription. Simply select option #4 at the teleprompt to speak to an Account Services representative who can cancel your account and will give you a confirmation number verifying the cancelation. Account Services is available between the hours of 8 AM and 10 PM Eastern Time (Monday-Friday) and on Saturday from 10 AM to 7 PM Eastern Time. In these 5 days, find out cool information about your parents/grandparents/ancestors... you have the free service for a couple days, might as well use it. 6. In about 3 days, they should have processed your ancestry.com offer, or in about 2 weeks if you chose a credit card. Add in the time that it takes you to get 5 friends to do the same (let's say a week) and you should have one ready to be shipped in 2 weeks. They say 1-2 weeks for shipping, but let's assume the worst, that brings us to 4 weeks. Enjoy your iPod, you didn't deserve it, but you got one anyways. ---end guide--- That said, if you choose to sign up, you carry the risk of $99 charged to your credit card if you forget to cancel your ancestry.com account within the 14 days, which is more than enough time. You also risk damaging your personal credit history if you have like 9 credit cards already and decide to go the route of opening another. However if you follow the guide above step by step, you should have 0 problems, and the worst that could happen is that this company gets a bit richer from all the kickbacks they're receiving from their partners like ancestry.com and you're one iPod richer. Please note, do not use any fake information in any part of this process as you will jeopardize your iPod and the referrer you're under. Remember it doesn't to any good to get more than 5 people to use your referral id because it's one iPod per household, so don't go spamming this crap to everybody you know.

A month later...

It's not if they are real or not it's just that they INFECT the forums. If everyone was allowed to post there get rich quick stuff and get a free car link they would be everywhere. WE KNOW ABOUT FREEIPODS.COM who doesn't. We just don't want them all over the forums like they ended up today and in the past.

Andrevas · 01-September-04, 11:14 PM

Then let this be the definitive thread. If you don't like it, don't read it.

aaronrkelly · 01-September-04, 11:23 PM

I have no doubt that this works - I do not have enough time to go through all that shat just for an IPOD. Thanks for the info though - looks like you spent some time putting it together.

I know some people understand it's for real, I posted this to hopefully sway those who think it's a load of BS which is the vibe I got from multiple members in the previously locked threads.

Sum_12_fear · 01-September-04, 11:47 PM

Yeah its real but its all over the forums maybe if you got one central thread for everybody to post their link on maybe the admins will be ok with that

Andrevas · 01-September-04, 11:57 PM

That's exactly why this should be the definitive thread. I would of just posted this in one of the other 2 threads below, but they are locked.

Lunamods · 01-September-04, 11:58 PM

As he said, this should be the definitive thread as he has hard evidence that it is for real. The hard part is finding 5 people to sign up under you and convincing them it isnt a scam.

cl0uder · 02-September-04, 12:01 AM

OK so which of you guys what to do it with me?

haha http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...718367917&rd=1

gorked · 02-September-04, 01:00 AM

We all know it isn't a scam. It's just not fair to all people. Why should one person get his iPod by spamming the forums first and posting his referral? Why not someone else's referral? It's not worth the time. It's not worth our time.

And resize your pics.

Morion · 02-September-04, 02:16 AM

So i see I am not the only one who got that insidious free ipods popup every 5 minutes......

Oh and your car needs some serious paint work. lol.

DuplexEmotions · 02-September-04, 02:38 AM

I don't even WANT a goddamn IPod. I'd rather just use my laptop with headphones coming out of my backpack. How many mp3 players can you frag with?

TekXoID · 02-September-04, 04:28 AM

I finished one offer, and sent out a referral, now I just have to get four more bastards to complete an offer and I'm set.

Volunteers?

aaronrkelly · 02-September-04, 04:59 AM

Hmmm..............no

note: this reply was a lame attempt at padding my post count, thank you for shopping aaronrkellys house of shameless post whoring.

Peng Lord · 02-September-04, 08:07 AM

Well, how about deleting all iPod relate posts and creating one sticky "conga line" where a person posts their referer link, once they reach five referals, they will delete their post? All other new threads will result in instantly being locked.

DuplexEmotions · 02-September-04, 09:56 AM

I'd rather not have anything so constrained, Peng Lord.

Besides, I'm not trendy enough to own an iPod.

Red02 · 02-September-04, 10:56 AM

Ok so what if it is real. You still have to go threw all that shiat and have other peoples actually sign up for and in order to get it. And then you have to wait like 6wks for them to send it.

The point is those who ARE interested in going thru all the sh!t to get one have this to help them out.

Notice I didn't post a referral link for myself, I have no interest in getting one either, I'm just trying to be nice and give some hard evidence about getting them.

And to the noob who said the car needs paint, it's not my car or my house, and my friend drives the black WRX parked on the street hehe.

DuplexEmotions · 02-September-04, 04:55 PM

I have a question for you, if I offered you a brand new FORD FOCUS, but you had to swim through a river of boiling feces, hot enough to char your skin and leave you smelling of feces for the rest of your life, would you do it?

I figure the payoff is proportional to the iPod payoff.
