Take a look at this listing...

I get this same "FREE TV" in my e-mail every day.
People actually place bids on this stuff when the seller blatantly says not to bid at all. A cheap advertisement for him.
Here's the catch on that scam. You have to sign up for 3 services, or products, and then refer 5 friends who will do the same. Of course it almost never happens. By the time somebody does actually sign up and convince 5 willing friends to do the same, several hundred thousand suckers did the same too, thus making the FREE TV worth giving away once in a while, compared to an expensive marketing campaign.
