lock your spot! - Is it a scam

Post by Tchay »

I don't see how "money" could be this easy. I am betting my roommate 10 dollars this site is a scam.

What do you guys think? Here is my "homepage". I signed up, but I didn't give them my personal email or info, so they can't spam me in any way if things go down.

Hah, looks fake to me. I signed up anyway though (with my "information" if you know what I mean).

Not from me though 8)

And they are probably spending a ton on server space, etc. Google them: they are on twitter, Digg, and a lot of other sites. These scammers are going all out. But they will lose in the long run.

I just watched the video again. You know what? I don't think its a scam. I think its one big social experiment. They want to see how many people will join a site they no NOTHING about. We'll see if I'm right on May 15th :roll:

Hmm, it's worth a try. I know a lot of people said comapnies like AMWAY and Quixtar were scams/schemes. Too bad that I joined them and they were actually legit.
