Welcome to Gaia! ::

Hello! Friendly, lurky moddy here, just wanting to give you guys some info about all those Free Gaia Cash Offers. The "Fill out this survey and recieve your cash!" ones?

I know this may seem weird, but I like making sure everyone is safe and sound. XD; So, here you go!

Information Concernig Cash Offers **PLEASE READ THIS!**

As the post above explains, many are scams, contain trojans (for those who don't know, trojans can destroy your computer and you'll have to buy a new one in most situations), and steal your identity. Charge you monthly fees you were unaware of and lots of other unpleasantries. So please read that post to know what ones, so far, are unsafe, and use EXTREME CAUTION when signing up for any others, okay?

I also want to let those out there who are thinking "Well, I just give them fake information, I'm safe", that Gaia WILL BAN YOU if you are caught. If you have to put in false info, I would suggest not signing up for the information at all.

If any of you use FireFox, I would suggest grabbing a few add-ons that spot Phishing sites for your safety, and ones that block you from pages containing malware. Those of you who don't have virus scans should get some.

And that's all for today's neighborhood watch I guess. XD Maybe I should make a forum for this general sort of stuff. >_>

Toodles!

And rightfully so, there's a lot of bad stuff floating around out there.

Thanks for the info, but it's too late for me. D:

About a month ago, I did a TON of the mobile ones, and added $120 to our phone bill. We still haven't been able to get rid of some of them! It makes me very panicky. Too bad those kind of things are only illegal in Florida...
