There are information posted on ebay about this. Is it a scam or does it really work? At www.matrixh2o.com, they say that they can give you a "super fast" alienware laptop for 550$ if you buy their platinum package for $275. Are these all scams or you can really make such a deal?

.......

Sorry, it's when you paid 550$ to buy the package, you're in the matrix in the order to get the free Alienware.

Pyramid/Ponzi scheme...

Basically they use your money to pay for the machines of other people already in line to get theirs (see where it says X needed to clear). These are great if you get in quick and get one ... but someone is sure to get screwed in the end and you are left with the knowledge that you contributed to that.

Generally this is highly illegal. As soon as the FTC catches on they'll shut this stuff down - unless they are already operating off-shore (speaking from a US standpoint).

Lots of people get took on the money markets for A LOT of money with trading scams like this.

Here is the most recent one I'm aware of: http://starbulletin.com/2003/12/11/news/story3.html

Thanks

Thank you for your reply. Then does that mean you have to buy from the manufacturer? They're pretty expensive.
