I really want to get one of those free ipods but I live in Europe, in Belgium.
I don't know anyone in the states so that's why I'm asking this here.
Does someone want to receive the Ipod for me and then ship it to me?
I will pay the shipping costs.
I know this is a rather weird question but please help me out.

The offer is for United States residents only

You are not the first to ask, and you will not be the last.

Gratis only offers this service to people in the United States, because that is the targeted advertising area.

For someone to open an account "for you" would be absolute fraud. And why should they go through all the trouble of earning a free iPod for you? Are your friends going to sign up for offers that they can't use?

GIVE IT UP.

[quote9141b24bed]Are your friends going to sign up for offers that they can't use? [/quote9141b24bed]
I'm wondering how many US residents signed-up for offers they actually use. I mean, I thought most people canceled. In any case, I couldn't use any of the offers cause I'm a US resident but currently living in Europe. So I just signed-up for an offer, waited to receive credit and then canceled it. I now have the ipod sent to a friend of mine. Once you get 5 referrals and after your account is verified you can change both the name and the address to which the ipod should be delivered. I'm stv since 10/13 so I guess it means it works.

So, in theory at least, this is doable if you're abroad and have a friend who can just receive the ipod for you. However, if you don't have a credit card that matches a US mailing address I'm pretty sure you'll have to find some stranger in the US that will also complete an offer for you. I'd like to be more optimistic about people's kindness but I doubt you'll find someone like that. You have no idea how hard it can be to just find people who will complete an offer so that they can get an ipod
[b9141b24bed]for themselves[/b9141b24bed]...

I hope for you that I'm wrong. If anyone knows of an offer you can sign up for without a US cc, mailing address or phone number, let us all know about it. I just can't see any right now.

It would not be fraud.

A legitmate person state side would complete the obligations. Gratis gets their commision, nice person from the states gets an iPod. They ship it to Belgium. Not fraud, its called going out of your way for another person.
