Well, freebie sites may work....for getting your free stuff, but Kupokitty is right, theyre not always a pyramid scam, theyre a magnet for junkmail. I signed up for one a while back then got nothing but spam emails and requests for payment to complete the offers and questions. Another thing is when youre under the age of 18 and you give away your info, it's given you CANT take it back, you just have to hope that no one decides to use it because once you turn 18, your identity is gone buddy.There's the occasional one like lockerz where it's proven by many many people to work, but avoid points2shop and anywhere like that because 99.99% of the time, it's too good to be true. Hav eyou ever heard the expression "there's no such thing as a free lunch"? Not only can your identity be stolen once you come of age, but you you could get spyware and trojan horse viruses. Have you heardof the site mspointsgenerator.com? yeah, that put spyware on my computer. You only have to be on the phone with tech support once to avoid a virus as much as possible. Plus the spyware could use your cookies against you. Hackers usually do that kind of thing to steal bank accounts, phone numbers, contacts, and can even screw up a facebook page, should you have one. The worst part about the hacker being able to access your contacts is that he can send an email that will spread the virus. Recently what was believed to be my grandmother sent out an email containing a virus. Luckily, one of our many antivirus spotted it before we opened it. The point is freebie sites are usually ALWAYS scams, tricks to spam your email, or even grab your credit card number from your online bank account. I just stay away from them and I attempt to steer people in the right direction when they ask about it.
Honestly, the only site that I've tried and works for me is Swagbucks. After about two months of searching the web with their search engine, I earned enough "swagbucks" to buy two $5 amazon gift cards. I then bought a refurbished HD cable for my xbox.
