Snuggies are stupid anyways, Why don’t we all just buy a robe and wear it backwards! Lol

I just discovered your website after following a link from an All You online article, and I’m glad I did. This was a great story, and I bookmarked the site. My father and mother fell for a monthly fee survey, and the video professor. They are not allowed to sign up for anything unless they ask me first! Your website will be a great tool in helping them figure out what is a real offer, and what is Internet crap.

I did this back in October and am still awaiting my free snugglie. What I am getting now is a horrendous amount of spam. Good thing I provided my “junk mail” email….I’m getting at least 40 spam emails a day. Looks like I’ll be signing up for another email account. Thanks for the info., should of looked here first. If it’s too good to be true…then it is!

these crooks got a lot of contact info/email addresses from the off-topic section of BF.C and we shall exact our revenge!!!!!

there are all kinds of legit freebies out there- it sucks that it is so difficult for your average idiot such as myself to determine between them.

I got my free Snuggie, but it wasn’t a “real” Snuggie, just a blanket with arms. I got it with a purchase from Woman Within.

Thanks, Goob, for letting us all know about these scammers. Your hard work and impressive vetting process are truly appreciated! I read through your article and the forum post; I didn’t know that Video Professor was a dud! I’ve been seeing the company’s ad on TV for some time and always wondered what the catch was… I’ve also been sucked into signing up for a Dengaku freebie or two Thanks again and happy holidays!

The problem is many of them operate outside of the United States, which create a million and one hurdles to clear in order to punish them. With limited resources, authorities tend to pass over spam harvesters unless they are directly draining funds from people’s bank accounts (which these guys aren’t).
