I recently had one of my followers in Facebook remind me about bogus freebies. By bogus I mean they say they are free and really they are cheap tricks to get you to subscribe to their site. Examples of these are offers that look too good to be true: like gift cards and computers. Too good to be true! These so called freebies will lead you through a ridiculous page after page of info grabbing and phishing with questions. They will eventually lead you to a page that you will be expected to give your Cell Phone or other financial info like credit cards or bank info. DO NOT EVER GIVE ANY OF THESE 3 TO PEOPLE ON THE INTERNET. If you do share your Cell, for instance, there will be some arbitrary charge on your cell bill the next time you receive it...
Now please rest easy about any FREEBIE I post on my blog. I personally apply for every freebie that I do share and have received almost all of them in a timely manner. I will never post the bogus or impossible type freebies because frankly if it is too much for me to finish I would never pass it on!
