This one is classic!  The ad i just saw on TV said they were giving away this "get rich while saving the planet" book for free, so I logged on to their website.  Right out of the gate, you see the little asterisks.  Those mean it's SO not free. 


Little gray letters state "plus s/h" which I thought meant shipping/handling, but I didn't pursue this any further than the first page because they're not even getting my name.  I clicked on the "terms & conditions" link, waaaay at the bottom of the page.  This is where it gets really not-free.


Apparently, by requesting the "free" book, you are also enrolling in their e-magazine (not even a real paper publication, which means it costs them exactly ZERO!) trial offer.  To opt-out of this offer, you'll need to call them on a toll-free line that will no doubt be routed to an offshore call-center that requires you pony up your credit card info (that you already have to provide to get the "free" book, why is that again? LOL), to a rep in a 3rd world nation, within 14 days.  If you don't, you have now agreed to be billed $89.95 per year!  For a E-ZINE?! 


What I am truly shocked, and ashamed to find out is that their corporate office complex.....wait, office singular.....is that a SUITE number?  Like in a strip mall?  Anyway, this place is about 5 miles from where I live.


Oh yeah, California residents are also required to pay sales-tax.....for a free book!
