I've become curious after seeing them all the time. Could anyone tell me what the info is? thanks for any help

Ive bought this a few monthes ago. You get list of certain industrial trade sites. You pretty much say that you are a big marketing/distributer/industrial hancho and are interested in making a huge purchase in bulk. But to convince you, a free product must be sent. The problem is alot of companies are wise to this. So you have to practice on crappy items on pens or become a killer fucking email grifter. So you have to be REALLY REALLY good at this to get a Widescreen TV....not saying it is impossible but it is too fucking hard for a free case of pens.

would you be willing to share some of those sites?

Maybe.........................Even though im the one who actually paid for the scam. Just search for global trade sites.......you just need the factories/companies email adress and product numbers. Then BS you way through.

If you still canf ind anything from googleing ill tell you a site tomorrow.

Just Kazaa it, the document is all over Kazaa. I've never tried it, but It sounds Legit, but as said above you would need to have either some real credentials or be very good at drafting a letter to be able to get anything big.

hmm I searched "get all your electronics for free" on kazaa and nothing came up...any ideas?

It's on kazaa, just ry some other combinations, like "free stuff" or what ever.

But if you're going to do this, make sure you have a company registered at the Chamber of Commerce (or whatever it's called in the US or Canada). Otherwise they won't send you anything valuable (like a TFT screen).

EDIT:

And don't forget to use proper English too.
