Default Lockerz

Do you guys like free stuff? I know I do. If anyone wants, PM or leave your email here and I will send you a Lockerz invite.

Lockerz, if you didn't know, is a rewards site run by the ex-CEO of Amazon. It's marketed towards teenagers and you get points by doing random tasks (right now they aren't up yet). You redeem these points in a store, and right now since it's in an invite-only sort of beta, the points for stuff are lower than they should be. I think full price will be on in a few weeks, september, or october.

Anyways yeah.

Spamming websites to spread word, like this, I'd assume.

Believe me in every way...so many massive scams exist on the internet--SO MANY.

Surveys alone are complete bull****, yes, no doubt. I researched it a hundred times to see if it was actually worth my time, and there are just hundreds of fake reviews made by the company running the websites--which get you money for taking surveys.
Its all a pyramid scheme for the sake of advertising and getting you to tell all of your friends, because you think you can get referrals and make more "free" cash. Nothing is free...nothing.

I found a site that's a pyramid advertising scheme, and personally got a free t-shirt from them with the points I built up. But I won't spam that here and post my referral link...so I get more points.


In my opinion, lock this thread, its just talking about spamming.

This isn't surveys. All they do is ask you a simple question. They're super random, like "What was your favorite michael jackson song" "what's your favorite number" "where would the best place to study abroad be" that's all it is, one simple, often random question a day.

the only reason that stuff is inexpensive in points right now is cuz they just started, and obviously need a userbase. so they put points low, tell you to invite your friends, and in a few months time i think theyre gonna jack up the costs (in points only. no real money involved)

i think it's supposed to turn into a social networking site, sort of like facebook.

you don't have to spam at all - referrals aren't required by any means. they're going to be putting up games and videos apparently to earn points.

you don't give credit card information - how the hell would they market it towards teenagers?
