Look people there are a lot of other surveys out there that you don’t need to give your real “identity, address” All you need is a 2nd email to get all the junk email. If you read the fine print it says participation required or purchase required.
I had 1,000,000 chips gone for no reason from Zynga poker on facebook. I reported it and all they said was “would you like to purchase chips” WTF????????
Isn’t this a perfect example then, of why children should be monitored when using the internet? But even at 13 they shud have the sense not to give out phone details. It’s also a perfect example of why ppl need proper training before being let near the Internet. You wouldn’t let someone drive a car without lessons wud u! The Internet is dangerious if ur the type to click random links and give details out. Ppl shud be taught this is school.
I can not begin to tell you how many times every day people call a Major cell phone company to complain about downloads. I always cancel the subscriptions and request a refund, but I am always amazed that you have to tell so many people.
Ok, seems some people here have no clue what a target audience is. Obvoiusly we have some simpletons here. You only need to be 13 to use FB. What do most 13 year olds have these days? That’s right, a cell phone. They are not going to bother to read anything. They just want to move forward. Once you “opt in” to these scams, your phone carrier will not help you. You have to either drop your service or change your phone number to cancel.
This is an old scam actually, it’s not just Zynga and Facebook… Television’s have been advertising “LOve quiz” and crap like that for years. And in VERY small text on the TV ad, they tell you about the subscription but with live TV, youcan’t pause it to read the small font.
i did this Quiz shit and end up with paying 20 $ each month for a period of two months. i had no idea why i am being charged . one day i saw the shit that was written under that quiz and came to know they r the culprits.
These stupid IQ tests schemes have been around for years. It’s obvious there’s a catch because who would go to the trouble and advertise them if they weren’t expecting a return. It’s also kind of pathetic that people would feel the need to do these tests so they can feel smarter than their friends. Oh yay I filled out some questionnaire online that says I’m a genius!

FB Games are Gay to begin with. God.
Question… if a random person rang your house, asking for your bank details.. would you give them the information?
Of course you wouldnt!!
I have no sympathy for people who this STUPID to either buy FW cash using real world money, or give personal details like a phone number online.
Use your common sense!!
You deserve to get scammed if you are using the Internet without any IT awareness and have NO idea about such an obvious scam.
Would you drive before taking a driven lesson?

yikes! this is why you can’t be stupid and give out your number.
you bastard you entered zynga’s ceo he’s now pissed off and cutting the slaries to cover the revenue they are losing LOL
Is there any reason why you would give your cell number out to a relatively unknown web site?
Shouldn’t cell phone numbers be considered as a credit card?
Or should we think of our cell phones as credit / debit cards and be very reluctant to give out our numbers?
