Free! Free! Just one thing...

There are a lot of websites out there that offer stuff for free. eBooks are really popular and other offers that they claim to be "free".

BUT

There is a catch.

If you want the free eBook you have to Opt-in to getting their spam delivered to your e-mail. So many of these are filled with worthless information that tell you how good you'll have it if you buy their product.

The "books" are filled with everything but the punch line. In order to find out the "secret", you have to buy something or pay for them to tell you.

I know these people are just trying to get a little ahead in life, but they shouldn't say it is free unless it really is free. There are other ways to drive traffic to your website and to make money. Do you have to scam the lot of us to do it?
