Please help...

Hello, i have just graduated from hight school and do not have the money to buy the iPod i have really wanted to get, but recently found a site where you can get them for free simply by referring 5 people. I would truly appreciate anyones help by going here and signing up [link removed by moderator]. All you have to do is get a free trial to AOL or ancestry.com (and then cancel it any time) and I will be able to get my iPod! You can even get one yourself.
Thanks for you time and energy, I really appreciate it. Thanks in advance.

No offense buddy, but I think you might be a little misguided. Aside from the obvious "if it sounds too good to be true..." factor--Check out terms and conditions:

1. Receipt of Product

(a) *********.com is a free service and does not guarantee receipt of any product regardless of offers completed or points accumulated.

(b) *********.com will take measures to ensure that the user receives orders within a reasonable amount of time. However, *********.com does not make any guarantee on delivery time or availability of product.

They are quite literally saying that even if you do everything they ask, they have no actual obligation to send you a free iPod, and even if they did send you one, it might be in the year 2050 when they're given out free in every box of lucky charms. Spend some time saving up instead of looking for freebies...they pretty much never pan out. Good luck
