    Anybody who signs their name Jaz should be shot repeatedly with a staple gun.

    It's just bait..

    When anything says "Free" your bull detector should be flashing red..

    The free ipod scam being the worst.

    Nowdays what they want is your marketing data.....
    It's info Pharming.. huge operations.

    Yea I get a kick out of the most... "Free credit report dot com"..

    I can see them now Hum.. a copy for YOU free.. a copy for ME free...

    "Give us a copy of your credit report and we will let you look at it for free dot com"

    should be there name....

    As if there is some big building somewhere full of cubicles with nice digital phone system, air conditioning, break room, salaries for employee's, cleaning crew at night, electric bill, computers.

    ALL JUST FOR FREE.. just to give you a FREE credit report...

    And people beepin fall for it like "duh yea they just there for FREEE uh huh".

    True!

    Sometimes it gets even worse. You take the bait, reply to the e-mail and then small problems with shipping/logistics arrise, you know the kind of problems that would be so easy to solve if you just send them like 50$.......

    Those pop ups are great.

    "Punch Brad Pitt in the face and win a Sony PSP!"

    Is punching Brad Pitt in the face worth 27 pop-ups in 2 minutes?

    Sometimes.
