I received the message, "You have been selected for the $1000 Best Buy Holiday Overstock Shopping Spree Giveaway! Claim yours at http://redeem7.com/w/?17g65k18." Smells like a scam to me.
I too received the same message. I have a Best Buy account and a Verizon customer. WHere did they get their information for phone numbers????. I deleted the message.
This website is blocked at the company where I work Here is the message we get if anyone tries to access it through one of their many phony links: This site 'click.productgiftrewards.com' has been blocked due to some affiliation with malware distribution....
Scammers...wish I had as much free time as these losers. I admit, I'm jealous....
Same text string, they use mutiple different phone numbers. http:/redeem7.com/*random*
If you entered this site: Exit internet through your Task Manager and end internet explorer task. Website is like a Rabbit Hole with Trap and Farmer covering entrance. In otherwords, the site does not want you to leave. But wont show anything wrong as long as you keep entering.
The Random part of the text most likely will direct the database that your particular phone access code showed interest.
This 95% sure it is not attached to either Best Buy or Verizon. They want you to complete sub offers in order to get the "reward". In the end you'll spend more money then possibly save, they give you 120 days to complete 6 offers that will subscribe you into even more nonsense and rewards processing will take 6-8 weeks. 6-8weeks for a card in the mail?????? 99% sure that even after completeing the 6 offers you still wont get the "reward". The end result. Mass amounts of people you don't want having your number texting you scams that resemble a ponzie sceme. But the people reading this blog are already tipped off. Its the ones who don't look into to good to be true scenerios that I worry about.
First Webpage is a Congragulations Screen and asks for Email Address. Its a gimick. Not the Stars for proof.
I enclosed the summary of requirments. did not proceed past first webpage and do not feel the need to for it reads like a ponzie sceme. Don't go down the rabbit whole, you'll find a trap and a smart farmer covering the entrance up..
