We all know nothing in life is totally free; there's always a catch somewhere. So what's the catch with all these free giveaway sites? They make enough money to give you a gift and still be in high profit!
How?
They work by getting you to sign up for an offer; some offers are free, some cost anything from £5 to £10. That's a one time cost to yourself, after that it's just a case of getting like minded people to do the same thing. The company who are giving the gift away are making a killing from your referalls, some sites pay them up to £50 for one referral who completes an offer. So 10 referrals would net them £500; buying a PS3 and sending that to the person who got the referrals still nets them over £200 profit for doing absolutely nothing. It's an ingenious method if you think about it; everybodies a winner!
.: Still Concerned?
If you're still concerned about how legit they are; google them. Also; watch the BBC News Night report below:
There are many scam sites out there though so I'd recommend researching any sites you're thinking of joining before putting any effort into them. Anyway; back to the offer. The most appealing option when doing an offer is obviously doing the free one and the instructions here tell you how to do just that.
Now wait a second; didn't I just say nothing's free? I did didn't I.... the link that I will post here to sign up to a scheme is my referal link. If you sign up via this link and do an offer, then you will count as one of my referrals and put me one step closer to my free gift (at the time of writing this its a PS3 and I have 10 more steps to go!). It won't cost you a penny, just a moment of your time and I hope it can be seen as a fairtrade for the information provided on this site as well as whats to follow.
Complete an offer; either do one of the paid one's if you're interested or sign up to the two week trial at LoveFilm for free. All you have to do here is sign up to it via the link on the site you've just signed up to and rent one DVD from them.
Step 3
Depending on the gift, you'll then have to get a number of like minded friends, colleagues, strangers, etc to do the same. In the case of the PS3 its 14 referrals in total. Once you've done that you're account is validated and your free gift is dispatched!
I will forward people who sign up via my link a little more information on how they too can get more greens (referrals who take up offers and count to your contribution).
