Apple does not let the public beta-test their products. That is strictly done by Apple employees. Common sense would tell you that Apple would not risk having a forthcoming product fall into the hands of a competitor... or the press. So it's definitely a scam.
'Apple needs iPhone5 testers:The first 1000 users who visit http://testmobilesnow.com and enter code 1000 will get to test & keep the new iPhone5.' I received this txt a short while ago. It is just a scam, but it would be fun if it were true!
I got a spam email about testing an iPhone approx 5 minutes ago. I'm really disgusted that some phone predator got a hold of my cell number. This world is filled with losers, honestly! I have a pay as you go phone and the creep cost me $2.00. If I could locate this two-legged fungus in a petri dish I would punch him in the throat and end his telemarketing career!! Good vocal chords should not be wasted on such cretants.
