Anyone else had this e-mail from IPoints - you know that when things look too good to be true they usually are!



Would you like to earn Twenty Five pounds for doing nothing?

All you need to do is receive an item of mail and forward to our offices
in the pre-paid envelope we provide you with.

There is no cost to you at all.

We will pay you Twenty Five pounds each time.

Receive another Five pounds for every referral that is accepted by us.

Looking around it appears to be that you accept mail from expats and forward it to the 'main admin office' - that sounds so dodgy, they are not having my address!

Am concerned that IPoints would be getting involved in something like this. I expect a bit of spam like the business card e-mails but this is a whole new level IMO.

i had this one ..and yep sounds a bit suspect to me too

Ive just had this too and thought it was dodgy so did a google search which only brought up the entry for the site itself, so did a whois search, which makes it sound even more dodgy. think this is one to stay away from, am a bit surprised at ipoints offering something like this though.

:lol: Yes, I suspect your explanation that you are only accepting parcels from oversees on behalf of total strangers in order to get ipoints 'may' seem dubious to some! ;)

:doglaugh: excellent!

You don't actually tell ipoints you'r real info do you?
They think I'm a sixty stone Japanese redheaded cheerleader called wilf.

Er, if you want to get your vouchers etc surely they have to HAVE your real address? Not sure I gain enough vouchers to make it worthwhile having a forwarding address lol! Or is it that you are actually the person behind Quickpenny and you live on the Costa Del Sol? ;)

[dingaling]

I just had them ring me and it is sky cards for ex-pats. Sky cannot send the cards to non uk addresses, so they send the card to you and you forward it on. They will pay money to my paypal account. We shall see how it all works.

[SuzyWoo]

Let us know which wing you're on Dingaling and we'll organise a visits rota for you! :lol:

Actually, when you put it like that I may join you! ;)

[moonriver]

what are sky cards?

[dingaling]

what are sky cards?

They are the cards you put in your sky box.

I got this email a couple of days ago too, just deleted it.
I agree sounds really dodgy, but at the same time it seemed unlikely that someone like Ipoints would want to be linked to it.
It's a lot of money so there must be a catch, I hope it is Sky cards Dingaling.

Cant imagine sky being caught up with this
