They seem as legit as the companies who run them.I know people who have done coupon entries for national newspapers and stuff. I think the thing to look at is \n\nIF IT SEEMS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE \n\nThen it probably is.

Are you asking whether or not the site is for real?  I'm suspicious of any site that offers money for nothing, no matter (or maybe because of) how much it insists it's not a scam.  It sounds like one of those sites where the owner gets the money and you get none.\n\nIf you're asking whether or not the idea could work, possibly.  If the site gets enough ad revenue from those trillion visits (and from selling email addresses to spammers, probably) it may be able to afford to give out cash prizes.  That's just a question of calculating how much each hit brings in vs. how much the cash and bandwidth/hosting payments are.

If it looks too good to be true, it is.\n\nBeware pyramid and matrix schemes (I've seen the slimy tentacles of their recruiters beginning to infect this site). Beware schemes that don't tell you up front what you're doing, charge money to join, or for a "decision pack", where the product comes second to gaining new recruits.\n\nBasically, anything that looks like money for nothing may well be, but you're going to be the one giving out the money and ending up with nothing.

It is a scam. As soon as you contact them they will ask for a processing fee. I Googled \n\n"United Claims Center" Cash\n\n(with the quotation marks exactly as typed) and found 25 warnings in 0.46 seconds. That proves my Internet skills are better than yours. You are probably better looking, though.

It is not a scam, but a lot of work.  They are similar to a wholesaler for products that you will have to sell yourself or to a retail store.  It involves a lot of leg work on your part and time.

Yes.  I get a check every month from CashCrate and I have never had a problem.  It always clears my bank.

If it's too good to be true, it probably is" as the saying and you say.  \n\nYahoo! finance does not do this.  They state different companies do this, craigslist, ebay, google.  They are not a middleman.  \n\nWestern Union is your tip-off.  A person only has to have their name on the money and can pick it up.  They don't even have to show ID!    So if you send it to Yahoo!finance, care of Andrew Smith, he gets your money and there is no traceability.  Bye -bye money.  \n\nI would shut-off all contact immediately.  I played a game with an Andrew in the UK on craigslist about 6 months ago for a $40,000 car he was offering for $14000.  Same story as yours above.  I told him the only way I could pay him was with a certified cashiers check for $19000.  Use $2000 to cover shipping and I need to have the $3000 over that sent back to me.  I reversed the situation back on them as to what they were trying to do to me.  Never heard from him again, but I reported the e-mail address to yahoo at abuse@yahoo.com and to craigslist, who promptly removed the ad.\n\nAnd they can give you a tracking number easily.  "I have shipped the vehicle via Universal car shippers out of London.  Your tracking number is bs1423-34v-23fd-3432."  How do you know if that's real?  You are only going to check it when you don't get the merchandise.  \n\nContact a customer service person at Yahoo!finance and ask them if it's legit.

Unfortunately it appears to be a scam or at least according to Habitat for Humanity:  \n\nThis is a quote from a page about Check Scams:\n\nPreventing Fake Check Scams - Fraudulent/Counterfeit\n"How it Works\n\nShortly after submitting your resume to CareerBuilder.com, you will receive a notification via e-mail of a company seeking a "donations processor", "money handler", etc. etc. The notification appears to come from CareerBuilder.com. Once you respond to the notification showing interest in the position, you are then e-mailed a link to a (fake) contract and asked to sign it and return it via fax.\n\nWithin a few days of signing the contract, you will receive a FedEx envelope containing a Cashiers Check in the amount if either $4500 or $7500. The company representative will contact you via e-mail asking the status of the funds. Your bank will release the funds prior to actually verifying the legitimacy of the cashiers check.\n\nOnce you tell the representative that the funds are available, he will send you the names of who to wire the money to. He will give specific instructions on how to send the funds, as a "personal" transaction, not a "professional" one, he will very likely give you 2 different names (both in Ukraine) and tell you to keep 7% for your commission and use the remaining amount for wire fees. You will also be instructed to not send the funds via online.\n\nDays later, you will be notified by your bank that the cashiers check is counterfeit. You could possibly be facing felony fraud charges and your account bank account can/will be closed and all assets frozen.\n\nYou will find that e-mails sent to the representative are getting rejected as not sendable. The website may even disappear off line and be active under a different name."

its probably just a scam and spam sight. they'll make you do surveys and sign up for stuff saying that you'll get a check. then they just send you spam. i wouldn't be suprised if you never recieve a check in the mail

You shouldn't automatically dismiss every one of these sites as a scam.  Many of them, the Gratis company, for example, actually are legitimate programs that WILL send you the item once you complete their "offers."   Of course, afer all is said and done, you'd have been much better off simply going to the store and buying one.\n\nBy know, we should all know how these sites work.  I sure do, and I've got the 1672 items in my bulk mail folder to prove it.  They offer FREE iPods, laptops, TVs, gift cards, money via PayPal, and all sorts of other goodies, and all you have to do to recieve your FREE item is pay for a bunch of trials and product samples.  All of these offers that you must complete require credit cards, which is dumb, because if you can afford to maintain a credit card, you can probably afford to go buy whatever it is that they're giving away.  \n\nOnce you complete the offers that they ask you to participate in, after everything goes through, you recieve the product sample, credit card, free trial, or what-have-you, that you paid for, (keeping in mind that these kinds of things usually take anywhere from a few weeks to a LOT of weeks), AND you recieve credit for it (another few weeks), you must refer, usually, 5-or-so people, ALL of whom must complete an offer or two themselves (another few weeks for each of them), and then THEY must refer someone to complete an offer.\n\nThey'll also revoke any offer, or your whole account, if you don't follow their rules to a "T".  For example, if you post a link on your website instructing readers to sign up for a free trial so that you'll get your credit, but then tell them to cancel the trial before it expires and their cards will be charged, they won't make as much money, and won't take too kindly to your instructions.  You also must refer unique people, who then must refer unique people, meaning, you can't create multiple accounts and pose as your own referrals (which doesn't make sense to me, since they're getting the money anyway).\n\nObviously, very few people are going to put up with all of this nonsense, and these companies will have to send out very few of the products that they offer.  They make all their money from the people who sign up, pay for a few offers and then say "screw the whole thing."\n\nSo, all in all, you CAN get an iPod off of them for a few bucks, but you'll need a credit card, an incredible amount of patience and 10 other people who are actually going to go through with it.
