hands off man, it´s a classic snowball-system...only the people which started it make their gain....the site will disappear soon because snowball-systems collapse after a short time, then the same site will be opened under a new domain....to put it in short words: scam... :wink:

pretty simply mystik, rule #1 on the internet: nobody has to give away stuff for free, it´s all about money.... :wink:
and the snowball-system is the classic scam scenario:
-found a company (of course a company form which allows the owners to go bankrupt without the possibility of beeing charged, or pay a poor guy a little money to act as the official chairman)
-start the game
-when it runs make money with ads and selling user data to spammers
-when people begin to demand the products you advertised with: go bankrupt
-get new domain
-start again

check the whois-data, it´s only a P.O. box poiniting to gratisinternet.com which is already really suspicious, I´m sure the holding is located on Cayman Islands or somewhere else where you can´t sue... :wink:
