freeiPods.com Spam

First off, I’m not saying this program is a scam. “Studies” have shown that people do get their iPods. What I am presenting here are the hidden costs involved, which is how they make over $250+ to pay for your iPod.

The most obvious issue is spam, although people do not always realize this.

Please note that the email address you enter on freeipods.com will receive spam as a result. It’s easy to deal with, however – make sure you enter a “junk mail” address, one that you use to receive spam with.

I will update this with a report of the spam I receive – keep going down to see it.
