Well, if you sign up for my newsletter, only $5.99 billed directly to your credit card, or agree to get your own creditcard through me for a one time low rate of $79.99, or send me $19.99 for a three page report to let me show you how not to get scammed, or for only $9.99 ( plus $24.99 shipping) I will send you a three dollar watch! (watch has a lifetime warranty, Send $14.99 for sh/handling)

Now if you will do any of the above, I will answer yourr question within a 6 month period ( 30 day money back guarantee) or if you do all the above, with a $99.99 handling fee, must use $50 coupon located in the Utah Ocean Front Daily Newspaper, I will answer within 48 hours! Offer will be void if upon recieving your payment and I dont make it past the local pub!

I've had quite a few friends do it along with my brother, and yes they all got free ipods. it has something to do with you have to sign up for a lot of 30day free trials n' stuff because the company giving you the Ipod gets money from every subscriber or something. my brother ended up paying for a thing or two he didn't cancel fast enough. but he now has an almost free video Ipod.

Sorry, I missed the wanting to know if it's a scam or not. That is only three low monthly payments of $19.99 or one payment of $89.99 with your email address! (my "buddies will want to email many more money savings ideas!)

I think he was joking And I havent tried the ipod thing myself. A guy should though, just to see if it works, but, its like the saying goes, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is!

I think i read somewhere there is some truth to it thought,but the things you have to do to actually get one are ridiculous. You have to sign up for so many offers that will cost money and such then once you do enough offers they "send" you one but who knows if they do or not.
