I have two members of my family that I'm sure will complete an offer each for me. The problem is that they have the same last name and similar e-mail addresses, albeit with different providers. Their addresses are different and all of their credit information would be different, as they do not live together. Will Gratis accuse me of fraud just because they are related even though they live at different addresses? Thanks.

I believe someone else had an issue like this on this board, and while they did put him on hold temporarily, he appealed it, calmly giving proof of the differences, and they later approved him, so I think you'll be alright.

Different ip's and different addresses, then you should be OK
nicd,
I agree you should be ok as long as they sign up from different computers at different addresses using different IPs. In general, it seems that POLITENESS and PERSISTENCE are the keys when dealing with Gratis. As long as you're respectful and friendly in your emails, they seem to be very willing to help. You may have to contact them a few times in some cases, but in general they seem to be very reasonable. At least that's the feel I get from reading these forums.
Of course, I haven't been put on hold (yet), so my opinion may change... )
Good luck!

maybe you can get one of them to create an email address at gmail or some other free email service w/ a username that is significantly different from the other person.

Thanks for the help everyone. I think everything should be okay as long as nothing insane happens (crosses fingers). While I'm waiting, I was wondering if I could try to get the shuffle with three quick offers. Should I hold out until my iPod is finished in case they get suspicious?
