Topfreegifts.com fraud cheat lie scam ripoff dishonest shady Internet

Got an unslolicited e-mail from topfreegifts.com. Sign up for 3 offers and get a "free" ipod mini. Not only are all the offerns not free (in some cases you have to purchase items to qualify), it turns out that some of the companies that they ask you to sign up with as partners actually have no relationship with them at all. Here's the response I got from one such company that I had signed up with in order to get my "free" ipod:

Hello,

At no time did we, (company I signed up with), have a business partnership/relationship with TopFreeGifts.com.

They had decided to use a banner with our information on it without our permission. Our CEO directly contacted them to have it removed.

Please do not let their business ethics sway you from placing orders for hosting service with us. If you have any additional questions or concerns, please let me know.

Note that TopFreeGifts.com will not return e-mails, so there is really no way to complain to them directly-- they figure you will just go away. Do not sign up for anything from these people. A big ripoff and waste of time.
