Total scam. If it looks too good to be true than it definitely is when it comes to the internet.

What You are buying:
1 Super Customizable Ladder PHP Script ($200 Value)

no scam, you'll get exactly what you paid for.... :nono:

Looks just like the "your buying a picture of" auctions on Ebay.

The entire site reads like a pyramid scheme.

Good pointer: If the FAQ section has to answer "Is this legal?" it's because it isn't. :p

Alright then, how does it works? What generates the income to purchase all the "free" gear? The only thing seems to be recruiting new suckers.

Apple isn't giving away ipods, and paintball manufacturers aren't giving away free markers.

If the only income is from new people joining, it's a pyramid/ponzi scheme.

For more information, Google: free ipod ponzi

If you're so sure it works I'm suspiscious if this thread isn't a base attempt to pass of advertising as a question and circumvent the forum rules about such schemes.

Even if these "advertising" credits were something legit, what are YOU doing to deserve them? You think that any company is giving away merchandise to referral advertising?

It is against the rules of AO

http://www.automags.org/forums/showthread.php?t=146179 read this in full and you will see why. Please do not post these kind of links again. To keep within the new friendly situation we have here now this is your warning.

The link btw is on a redirect so to deliberately suck in paintball people.

This ruling was made to include all version of the "invitation/scheme" so as to stop people saying "but it worked for me etc" So these schemes however they wrap them up are against what is allowed here on AO.

Thread closed and original post editted to remove the link.
