Free New Computer System?
 
GET A TOTALLY FREE LEGIT NEW COMPUTER. Anyone heard of freeipods.com? I’m sure you have, and if you haven’t, visit freeipods.com. BUT, there is another free item you can get. You can get a free computer. There are four choices. You can pick which ever one you want. Yea it’s true. I don’t know if anyone has tried this one yet, but I did actually do the deal and my Computer is on it way. “Status: Shipped”. I already received my free ipod over 2 weeks ago.

This is all brought to you by the same people that everyone is getting their free ipod’s from.

Spam link removed. -Z-man.

Oh and here are some links proving it’s legit. You do not have to take my word for it. It’s also been on CNN but I cant seem to find the link.

SPAM
If anyone’s willing to submit their personal info to these spammers at least take the referral id # out of the url this dork posted above. No reason he should profit from anyone here.

I'm going to start a service called freeb!tchslap.com. For a nominal fee I will travel to the home of these spammers and smack them into next Tuesday.

This must be the residual effect of the Speedster/truck/train accident thread.

My edumacated guess is these posts are done by a 'bot, which automatically signs up a user on the board and makes the post. The s/w used for this board is popular and a known quantity, which makes it easy. That's why more and more sign up scripts generate a gif image with a word that you have to type in to complete the process. Ironically, some of the most significant OCR hueristics being developed today are being done by those trying to defeat these measures.

Older verions of the board software are also have security vulnerabilities. Corner-carvers got hacked a while back, and all the admin accounts got deleted, and a virus email was sent to every board member.

I thought this too. The board was incredibly slow that week with what seemed like "newbie traffic."
