I've been accused of FRAUD!

I've done absolutely nothing wrong! All I did was sign up, complete an offer and get 5 of my friends to complete an offer. Nothing shady, and Gratis puts my account on hold for fraud!
Any Gratis reps care to help?
Do I have any means of defense for myself since I believe I've been wrongly accused?

i'd be willing to bet a hundred dollars that you did "something" wrong that violated their TOS.
I say suck it up and try OfferCentric.

Well did they give you an explanation or did they just say "for fraud"?

Here's their messsage
Thanks for writing in about your account's status. We have placed your account on hold due to suspicion of fraud. We have taken a closer look at your account, and have decided that it will remain on HOLD status. Due to high levels of fraud, we are forced to take actions against users who attempt to take advantage of our free offer. The reasons for this action may include multiple accounts, improper offer completions, more than one account to the same household, etc. We take all types of fraud very seriously, and since we give our products away for free, we cannot afford to be lenient on dishonest methods users try to obtain their free items.

I definitely emailed them and I hope they take my account off hold and approve my iPod. I've been waiting for months to get 5 referrals.

i've been put on hold, they gave me the standard msg, but as long as the inquiry is not closed, they will prolly provide w/ a more personal answer.

ha, after they replied, they closed the issue, so I of course started a new issue, and will continue to do so until they approve my account

Because he wants a human reply explaining why he was put on hold? Not some stupid automated message? Yeah...
Gratis's own fault for having shitty customer service.

Customer service has nothing to do with it. He violated the TOS in some way, they put his account on hold. Deal with it.

If you were on hold & they gave no reason you would want an explanation too. So just stfu.

Then YOU tell ME why I was put on hold...sheesh
what the fuck do you mean deal with it? im sure you would put up the same type of argument if your account was put on hold for apparantly no reason. so stop being an asshole, he has every right to ask for a human response and try to explain himself.

No he doesn't have that right. Gratis is under no obligation to explain to him why he is on hold...it says so in the TOS. I don't know why so many people have this issue. There are hundreds of people that go through the process without getting put on hold. Gratis obviously has no desire to discuss it further, so go whine somewhere else. imonhold.com is a good place to start. roll
