Apple Ipad Tester

If something sounds too good to be true, it most likely is not true.The same thing happened to a lot of internet users all over the world. And this is not the first nor the last scam on the internet because this environment does not discover people's real identity and allows bad people to pretend to be what they are not. I am talking here about the dozens of web pages and blogs and Facebook accounts promising free iPads to unsuspecting users. The offer sounds incredibly well: you will get a free iPad just if you test it and report your review to the people from Apple who are interested in your opinion as a normal user.



Of course many people will jump on it, reacting first and reasoning afterwards. I am usually a bit more circumspect and do not trust these "incredible" offers because there's something wrong with the offer of getting such an innovative device for free. It is pretty expensive and it has just been released on the market, so everybody wants to get one. So many do not hesitate when they see this offer to be an Apple iPad tester and get the device tested for free.

Ok, Apple is a big company and can afford the expense , but my guess is that the testers are carefully chosen and there may be people like some famous reviewers for IT magazines. This way the free iPad is reviewed for free and it gets very good advertising at national and international level. So it's not exactly for free, right?



I admit i found more such examples of web sites advertising a free iPad for the person who wants to be an Apple iPad tester. All you had to do was to fill in a form and you were to receive the iPad immediately. Really? That page must be visited by at least 500 internet users a day and I really don't think that Apple is willing to make such nice presents to just everybody. Of course I ignored the offers and moved on.

But I have recently read an article that said that the similar offer appeared on Facebook was a great scam and people who signed in for getting a free iPad had to also give some personal details about their bank accounts or phone numbers and accounts and other private personal information. This information was used by hackers for bad purposes (ordering things on the online stores using their credit card account or some similar stuff). The iPads did not come to the excited "testers" , so ... I suppose I was right again.



I guess you'd better save some money or get another part time job if you want this device that bad, but never ever give personal information on the internet. Here are some links to some pages that advertise this if you are curious and if you decide to sign up for a free ipad and you really get it, let me know: www.surveyscout.com, www.free-wii.net, www.bestipadoffer.com.<
