As we have a huge freebies section it is important to have thread that has a list of all scam sites to prevent us either from posting threads or wasting time on items that never come.
Others on SD recommended me add these sites http://samspade.org/ and http://www.whois.net/ to get more info. thanks Isis
Adding information about such sites are also available at
hiddenmysteries.org [hiddenmysteries.org]
I was hit some by below few of them in the recent past and (somebody on this forum provide me the link (couldn't find him name as my original thread was deleted) and thought it will help this forum.
Please spread the word about this thread so that everybody on these forms can benefit from it
Here is a compiled listing of SCAM SITES, ADDRESS HARVESTERS, PHISHING SITES.
Feel free to add any that you find.

1. lots of google ads
2. check their homepage and see if it looks "irregular"
3. look the site up on http://www.samspade.or
4. google their phone number or address and see if the information is in line with their whois or samspade information
Sometimes its just a feeling you get about a site, like it just does not feel right, something is off. That is when I check it out (# 3). BTW, I think the majority of people who post these do so with the best of intentions. Most of us have either posted or signed up for offers from these sites (me included).
I wish Nuala'sMom would respond to this. She is really good @ ferretting out these bad guy sites!

looks like scam to me
Umm...
Several years ago, I would do CleranceCrazy offers and get freebies. Sometimes they would just send a pack of lipton instand soup if they ran out of stock on a certain freebie they were offering, but I always got something.
I haven't gotten anything recently, though. So, while it MIGHT be spam now, it didn't use to be. :/
if it offers hosting, its a scam
-unless the freebie is free hosting
