FreeIpod.com a scam? You don't say!

I never saw this one coming. Didn't get your Ipod and now your email account is a spam sewer. Ha ha. /nelson

I don't buy the whole "It's Apple's fault" B.S. either. They're taking advantage of the greed of ingorant people. That's all.

OOH OOH, OMG FREE iPODz0rS????!!11

The sad thing is you could probably make enough money to buy an iPod by putting a tenth of the spam your account has mailed out up in the form of ads on a website.

I've made 100 bucks since the end of july on clickthroughs from google ads on a stupid personal website (*cough* *cough*, hosted by my school).

That's kind of a long time, but hey, it's cash right? Right.

I know a couple of people who have gotten their free iPods from them. They also offer LCD televisions and other stuff with the same process.
