I was just wanting to know my IQ so I took the test. The next thing I realized, I was led to these several websites offering $500 gift cards, plasma TVs and so on. Man, was I tempted. I spent at least an hour trying to fill out forms until I got tired and just closed all the windows. And I never got to learn how much I got for that IQ test.
Do you ever pay attention to those online offers? Have you clicked on something that actually worked without asking for your SSN or credit card number? How do you feel about these pop-ups?

Those are just ways for them to sucker people like us into purchasing a "free" item. I find it annoying and really not worth my time. Result of participation would lead to spam mail and phone calls that I never asked for. Sure temtation always happens but I ignore it.
