freeusedlaptop.com Get a FREE Laptop at FreeUsedLaptop.com Internet
freeusedlaptop.com claims to be giving free used laptop.
I have registered for one about three - four months ago. I havent recieved one.
Here is the information that the website has directly on it freeusedlaptop.com
How can we give away FREE Laptops?
This whole concept is based off of our original site, FreeUsbDrive.com. Advertisers are always looking for new and exciting ways to promote products. With FreeUsbDrive we were able to see just how effective this can be. As we get advertisers we take a somewhat cheap product, let an advertiser barnd it with their logo and/or website address, and then give it away for free. The funding comes from the advertisers themselves as well as advertisements on the websites.
With FreeUsedLaptop.com we've not only partnered with the same group of advertisers, but also with a surplus/refurbished computer outlet. Their factory is FULL of old laptops that they can't sell due to all of the new age technology out there. All laptops are guaranteed to meet the following requirements:
- Pentium III
- 128mb Ram
- 14.1" screen
- Wireless internet card
- DVD Rom
Some lucky visitors will get laptops that exceed those specifications! All laptops will come branded with an advertiser's logo and/or website. We know that this isnt exactly top of the line, but hey, it's free!
Let's get started!
First Name
Last Name
Address
City
State
Zip Code
YOUR INFORMATION WILL NOT BE SOLD OR SHARED WITH ANYBODY! UPON SHIPMENT OF YOUR PRODUCT ALL INFORMATION WILL BE REMOVED FROM OUR DATABSE!
I think this is just a rip off so this company can get everyones mailing address and other information.
People that I have refered to this wwebsite say that they are getting a lot of SPAM.

Spam and Freeusedlaptop.com
#2Consumer Suggestion
Wed, March 21, 2007
Freeusedlaptop.com is a very well known web site that does not give away anything. All they do is collect email address's from you and your friends. They get away with it because you agreed to opt-in to their email lists when you gave them your info. Once they have your address and those of your friends the spam will start rolling in. They also sell your info to any spammer willing to pay for it. Your address and contact info may be sold over and over. If you use their web site you will see they only offer links to various free sites and run Google ads for the same. If you have time you can let Google know of this scam and let the advertisers know on the freeusedlaptop.com web site. They may force freeusedlaptop.com to remove the links which would put them out of business.
