simple question i 've signed onto my freepay site at my friends house, my friend that already has an account under my name, whenever we signed up for offers of course we would do it at our own house, but we would check each others status at each others' house sometimes, i know with previous gifts it never affected me, but it still doesn't matter right?

I think I read a post from Jake once that said they don't look at IP addresses when they approve accounts.

Actually no, IP is probably one of their most checked items

Yeah because I check my account at a few of my friends' houses once and a while too and they're my referrals, hopefully they only consider the IP that was used when signed up, not when logged on.

Jake has said in the past that checking your account is okay, just don't do anything like sign up, complete an offer, send a support ticket or anything else. Just check the account and that's it.

well now that they are losing money we have to watch out b/c they could hold our accounts for doing that.

If that is true, that policy is just assinine.

I work at a company where we have approximately 8000 employees going out to the internet over 2 differnet proxy servers. That means, if people sign up - there's a REAL good chance there will be duplicates.

What really should matter is that the accounts are legit, different addresses, phone numbers, credit cards - you know - the stuff that matters.

Where did Freepay report that they were losing money?
