Don`t know if anyone has already posted this but it is a supposedly legit` offer and has been on the bbc website.

http://www.freeiPods.com

Here`s the link for the bbc article

Have tried it myself and am awaiting my free ipod.

First post and a dodgy referral link to a pyramid scheme.

Enjoy your free ipod, I won`t bother thanks.

It doesnt actually appear to be that dodgy of you run with it from freeipods.com without the referrer link, however I personally dont believe I`ll get a free ipod just for signing up with one of the other legit offers.
I will no doubt in future kick myself, but free lunches dont normally arrive at my house.

Already got the referrals I need to claim mine, so any more will make no difference to me as you can only claim one. Nothing is stopping anyone going to the site directly, its no odds to me.
Admittedly it does look like a pyramid scheme, but it does seem to have a few good write ups, so I don`t know, just following up on an email I recieved from a mate.
Cheers

Sorry, I take it all back then mauler23. Jumped to the wrong conclusion without looking into the details.

No apology necessary, I felt the same when I first saw it.

Thanks anyway

It`s still a pyramid scheme :B

In order to get your gift you`ve got to refer and so on - needing an ever larger number of persons involved to get one.

As with other pyramid schemes, those in early will get whatever the hook is, it`s just that as the scheme expands, it eventually becomes impossible!

I would feel happier if the referred identity was removed irrespective, as using the link credits the referrer :/

As far as i know it is just five referrals needed per person to recieve the ipod, no matter how many are involved, so it does not work as a pyramid. I shall change the link now to avoid offending anyone else!!
