FreeOffersGuide.net closed

After staging a fake contest, and even announcing a fake winner. FOG has shut down. No more noobs doing offers for him for "points".

Owner
[quotea63dacc00f]Well due to the closing of the google account from members reporting it and we know who they are (so called loyal members) And the lack of support from our members we will be closing the site. It will remain open to trades and chat but the point system will close (if you have points to redeem for a prize fill free to contact us and we will redeem your points for you. The site brings in no money at all. Even when we have contest that has $1 donation only 2 people at the max help out. Just look at the donation members we have 5 in over a 6 month period which their donation went towards the hosting of the site which will end in jan 2006.

We will still be watching over the site as far as trades and members trying to break the rules which a few have already.

If you would like to keep in contact fill free to email us.

Everyone expects us to just pull this cash and prizes out of our asses. if this was your site you would do the same."[/quotea63dacc00f]

wow.

i hadnt checked it in a couple of days but i was looking for the prizes also. couldnt find shit.

but it was all bullshit?

i just tried logging in and it just says the board is unavailable right now.

It was all BS.

Here is the proof that I posted.


This shows what the pic looked like on the 7th of September, around when the contest started.

I am sure you remember the picture that FOG posted with "FOG Ipod" written in the paypal donation GIF. The "winner" was CS-Freak(an inactive user, that I tried PMing, and didnt even [bdea36a3b2e]read[/bdea36a3b2e] in 4 days, neither did he post once about winning)

This pic shows it is impossible that he edited the paypal GIF in anyway

As it would have been modified at a later date than Feb 18th.

More proof. Well lets say that original paypal gif was replaced by another edited paypal GIF. That is impossible according to this pic.

If he swapped the original paypal GIF with another the HTML code would have to have been changed, and sometime AFTER June 29th. LOL.


Can I say owned?

lol, thats fuckin unbelieveable.

did you post this anywhere on the forums?

lol, yeah! He deleted the whole thread shortly after, and made a new thread that was titled "FOG is Closing". He then said what I quoted in my first post.

Then one of his mods posted

[quote733fad9509]FOG, stop complaining, we all know you have got a bunch of free shit because of this site by giving out "points" that weren't really worth anything.

To all the members, sorry you were lied to, but no one ever got anything out of this site, it was all faked.

Good bye.

P.S. Any links of FOGs you have, I would suggest reporting to the free sites. [/quote733fad9509]

wow thats fucked up.

he seemed like such a nice guy too lol

damn...what a tool

he seemed like a decent guy too...

I totally missed out on this whole thing, I'm confused. Who did what, why and when?

I was gonna actually get points on his site but good thing a mod on another freebie site forum warned me that the site is most likely a scam since the owner made multiple accounts there to promote his own site thru spam. On one the accounts he pretened he was someone else and he had actually gotten I free ipod shuffle from them. lol

He made this fake contest, offering $400 paypal, an ipod, and a psp. You would have to find the words FOG 400, FOG IPOD, or FOG PSP on his site, and then once you found it, you'd win that prize. Well, there was a problem. These words weren't even on the site. He staged a fake winner, one that one the ipod. FOG IPOD was clearly written on the paypal donation image (FOG took a screenshot and claimed that a guy by the name of CS-freak won). However, people had already saved this image, zoomed in all over it, and the word FOG IPOD was not found. FOG had mearly placed the words on there after taking the screenshot.
Then for the PSP he started giving clues. They eventually led to clicking on google ads to find the words FOG PSP, which were one one of the sites advertised on the google ads. Of course there really was no other site that said FOG PSP on it, but FOG was raking in the bucks from all the clicks on his google ads. Then someone reported him to google ads and they took him off. Thats pretty much what he deserved though, scamming isn't cool x

did you even read the post?

I probably went to that site like 2 times so it doesn't affect me. But that dude is a dick for lying

Damn.................

[quote88be81d620="Sonofshoe"]did you even read the post?[/quote88be81d620]
I read it a couple times, and got the basic gest of it but that guy above did an excellent job of summing it up for me.

Sucks for those who lost out...but it serves you right. I posted time and time again on how the owner had outright stolen my design from FreeOffersNow.net...then you trust him to run a legitimate "contest"? HAH!

Your site doesn't look anything like his. Unless you just changed it recently.

I forced him to cease and desist use of the design soon after I saw he'd [File>Save As]'d my site. He then stole the current design from some other site (moron left the <!-- saved from url...--> in the source for a week or two). I at one time had the URL of but do not have any longer, if I remember right, it was a hosting site.

FOG always has and always will be a liar, and a scammer. He gave away a "laptop" at the beginning of the site, to one of his other accounts. This has happened multiple times.

What a douche. Anyone know who he was/is on any other sites? I am sure he is a member here like everyone else lol.

yeah that banner that he has is right off a templete at templatemonster.com

he probably found someone with that layout and stole the banner.
