Scrubbing Bubbles Offer

[RALPHMRED]

The add said Free scrubbing bubble shower cleaner

Beware of free items! If it says to take survey or buy something from a sponsor RUN dont WALK! Dont waste your time cause your not going to get anything for free. We went for the offer cause we wanted some Disney movies anyways, well completed everything they said to do and No free scrubbing Bubbles. It never sent us back to the page to gather info on where to send our free item! I have complained everytime this add has been sent to me, but to no avail. We did recieve our disney movies and are enjoying what we payed for.

Hi,

Have you tried filing a complaint with (if you put it on a credit card) your cc company, or the online Better Business Bureau?

Kat - Good luck!

Actually, this is a very common occurence with many of those types of offers. They basically just want to get the money they receive when you sign up for an offer through their website, it is an affiliate program. Once you complete that offer, they get paid when you pay for the items, use the credit card or whatever. If they did give away all these so called "free items" that they advertise, they would shortly go bankrupt and their site would be out of business, because no affiliate offer pays them that much, they really only get a small percentage of what you spend at the site you sign up for, or a small percentage of the amount you place on the CC the first time you use it, which is why so many say if you sign up for a credit card, you must be approved, activate, AND use the card. They don't get their money if you don't. So you can see, it just makes no sense for them and their bank accounts to actually send that freebie, they would only LOSE money.

That is why I have banned the posting of these types of offers on DOD. The only one who gets to post such things are the site owner, because it is his site and he can post whatever he wants, but I do not even bother to try to sign up for them.

Thanks for telling me! I've already been dooped!

It justs upsets me that they can make false statements. Oh well I did get my Disney movies we were wanting to buy anyways.
