****, and I had this all typed out already :(

I'll keep this short.[nbsp][nbsp]Please don't treat it as spam - I just thought some of you would like some free money - although obviously I get some too.[nbsp][nbsp]Most interesting part - send money to someone's email!

Just click on the link below, and sign up for an account at X.com.[nbsp][nbsp]It
takes less than two minutes, and we'll put $20 cash into your account to
get you started.[nbsp][nbsp]What do you get?

[nbsp][nbsp][nbsp][nbsp] *[nbsp][nbsp]FREE $20 cash deposited in your checking account
[nbsp][nbsp][nbsp][nbsp] *[nbsp][nbsp]FREE money transfers (send money instantly to anyone's email)
[nbsp][nbsp][nbsp][nbsp] *[nbsp][nbsp]No obligation, no minimum balance, no monthly fees
[nbsp][nbsp][nbsp][nbsp] *[nbsp][nbsp]Super-high interest on any money in your checking account
[nbsp][nbsp][nbsp][nbsp] *[nbsp][nbsp]FREE starter checks, and a FREE VISA debit card.
[nbsp][nbsp][nbsp][nbsp] *[nbsp][nbsp]plus, a whole lot more!

So click on this link right now, and come get your $20!
https://www.x.com/new_account.asp?Referrer=ted@tygresystems.com

The whole process took me 5 minutes, and lo and behold there was $20 waiting for me, as well as an overdraft amount which depends on your credit rating.

Webmasters, they have an affiliate program as well, but you need to send email to affiliate@x.com for details - I haven't done that yet.

I would be more descriptive, but I just saw half an hour of typing go to waste the last time.[nbsp][nbsp]But trust me, it's worth taking a look at.

That is a NO NO....
Spaming the FQ board is punishable by cutting your Bandwidth allowence by half.

I will look the other way if you send $20 to my email. :)

Lets keep FQ spam free

LOL, sorry Terra.[nbsp][nbsp]Didn't occur to me it would be better in this forum.

Frankly, I don't really care if you remove my referrer information at the end of the link - but there's no harm in it either.[nbsp][nbsp]The whole point is that you can get $20 for nothing, and that you can send money by email, which I think is a funny concept.

I have to admit it looks too much like a letter - because that's exactly where it was copied from after the first attempt at posting got lost somehow.

Anyhow, to each his own - I promise not to spam any of you LOL.

Well, since this thread is already here... in the spirit of free money there's also PayPal.com :) If you sign up with them you receive $10 and if you sign up friends and family you get $10 for each person you sign up up to $1000.

You have to provide a credit card number, but this site is by the same company that gave us Free-PC so I think it's on the level. (After all, I have a free-pc and it actually works!)

If you want to try it out, please use me as your referrer. I could use the money. Here's a link to get you started :)

https://secure.paypal.com/refer/pal=jstetser%40icongarden.com

I'm a sucker for free stuff, but I'm careful about who I give my information... oh, and I could use some alladvantage referrals, so email me if you want to help :)

Wow, that's cute.[nbsp][nbsp]Nice catch, Terra.

I suppose had I noticed that, I wouldn't have signed up, but on the other hand signing up isn't what poses the risk - only the fact that at that time it was possible to fund an account by using the routing number and the account number, with no check on the account holder.[nbsp][nbsp]Obviously they've closed the hole - I never knew that there was any other way.[nbsp][nbsp]But it does make you wonder about the security of the whole thing.

Still, there's the matter of convenience - and to date this and PayPal are the easiest ways to move money - I am just looking at PayPal now.[nbsp][nbsp]It makes a big difference to some of us who have the problem of Visa debit cards not being accepted for payment or funding of account, even though Visa says it can be done.[nbsp][nbsp]It is close to impossible for me to pay a bill in the US without asking someone with a CC to fund it for me, since I can't even get a stinking credit card here.[nbsp][nbsp]And if I have a credit card in the US, I can 't pay the bills from here - without some other way of payment other than wire transfer or a check drawn on a US bank.

I predict that the online company that gets this movement of money simplified as quick as possible will benefit the most from what will become the everyday mode of moving money and paying bills.[nbsp][nbsp]I just hope it happens this year instead of five years from now.

Jacob and I just did a test - and both these sites passed with flying colors.[nbsp][nbsp]Referrals paid immediately.[nbsp][nbsp]Money transfers/requests handled promptly.[nbsp][nbsp]These apparently are the only two at present that have this kind of system - but count on many more over the course of the year.

Now, if one of them would just complete integrating a bill payment system...

Gee, people! I am seeing this link to X.com WITH A REFERAL CODE EVERYWHERE!!! In my mail from AuctionTrib John, here from Tygre Ted, EVERYWHERE! :D :D :D

Cheese-wiz! Guys, how much is the X.com referral program paying you per sign up??? Come on, be honest... :)

BTW, TERRA: I'd sorta watch out on allowing referral links in here too much. Sure its fine once or twice (even I agree with that), but then someone sees this thread and sooner or later, people are posting referral links everywhere! ;)[nbsp]

Its $10, Tatu.

And Terra, now that I think about it, I agree with Tatu.[nbsp][nbsp]I wouldn't mind if you removed the referral part and just left the actual link.
