Free French Horn Promo

Post by Chuck(G) »

I've gotta ask--has anyone taken the survey for the Free Hans Hoyer French Horn:

This couldn't be a scam, could it? After all, they're one of Sean's sponsors! (I got the link from the ads on the right.)

I would hope so! (of course, it'd be nice if they kept the audience in mind, too ... :wink: )

I am a little confused, though (now there's a shocker, eh? :oops: ) -- is this a free "French horn" or a "Free French" horn? :P

Well, it IS "free blowing and comfortable for the student to hold" ...
Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

I did a little researching at scam.com and it turns out that all of these sites are run by an outfit called Nuitech. They're not a scam, but you will end up spending money. There are some who game the system by signing up then cancelling offers and apparently come out in the black.

But to get that single F horn, you'll have to go through 18 offers for junk you don't want.

You have to buy a bunch of crap to quality to get the thing for free. The horn is worth over $1200 US brand new... how could it not be a scam?

You have to sign up for credit cards and your right other things ya dont need signing up for 18 items later. Then send personal info you dont want sent over the net. You will spend your free time trying to get stamps dot com to cancel your acount on the phone listening to music for over an hour waiting for your turn as all the reps are curently bussy ect. My advice don't DO IT unless you got lots of time on your hands hehehheheh late nite that is!!!!!!

I got one of these in my e-mail for a free tuba. I also got one for a San Diego Chargers t-shirt. Then I also got one for a Weber barbecue grill. They all look the same. Same offers. I think everything ends up costing a few thousand dollars, if you go through with it. You will not only enjoy the horn, the tuba, the Chargers shirt, or the grill, but you will also enjoy the magazine subscriptions, the timeshare in Florida, the silk neckties, the Disney videos, the computer, the $100,000 of term life insurance at any age up to 85, the Omaha Steaks,
and all the other wonderful things you wish you hadn't gotten.
