News So is Lockerz a scam in your opinion?

[Bahumat]

I hear people saying about the Pyramid scheme where the people at the start who invited everyone can earn points, but no one else will make much.

Also it just seems like data mining in a way.

what the fuck are you on about?

Hmm - is that a clone of Outw*r - if people start spamming links we shall ban em

Oh - I see - its a data mining scam - none of the 'prizes' are ever available.

Sign up to a site, gain points and spend them on things such as games, ipods, macs. All free according to what people are saying.

If it's too good to be true, it usually is.

It'd be quicker just to work, earn some money, and go out and spend it.

Bahamut, for £100,000 I can help a Nigerian prince get £16 million of out the bank and he'll give me half, all my cash is locked up in investments right now, but if you want to give me the £100,000 I'll give you half of the £8 million I'll get.

True, but that still does not help answer the original question. I see countless people saying its not a scam. Also the CEO is supposed to be some woman who was high up at Amazon. Kathy Savvit or something?

Haha I am already a Nigerian prince so i dont need the money!

Normally these type of things have hundreds of threads warning people about it. BUt it seems alot of people are saying it's not a scam.

They will have your email address and delivery address so they could be selling your info? Just wondered if anyone knew much more about this.

I think its just a form of social engineering - send a bunch of kids to different sites saying they got these amazing prizes - its not hard to do considering there arent that many mentions of it yet.

"Down for upgrades"

Fail.

Yeah they were saying some shit about the increased popularity was unexpected and they need 4 weeks to update their site and increase site security. They have a disclaimer saying you cannot carry points over into the next year...

Alot of people said they restock on the 15th of every month, but the items go quick. I read The Broken Window by Jeffery Deaver which somewhat opened my eyes to Data Mining!
