Derek was doing his homework on his computer one night when he saw an ad banner for a free Playstation 9000. He clicked on the a

d with great interest and was taken to a webpage with details about the offer. It seemed simple enough. All he had to do was post some content to his social networking pages and complete a few offers. Derek didn't really approve of the content that he was required to share, but he really wanted the new PlayStation so he shared the required links with all of his friends and family. Then Derek began completing the offers. The offers were organized into three tiers or parts. According to the website, he had to complete three offers in each tier and then he would get his PlayStation for free. So, Derek started completing the offers in the first tier, which required him to create accounts on a bunch of websites that he had no interest in joining. He completed the first tier in a couple of hours and he was really getting excited about getting a free PlayStation 9000. The second tier required Derek to become a member at more websites and to get three of his friends to sign up for the program. Signing up to the websites was pretty easy (though time consuming), but getting his friends to participate in the program was much harder. Most of them warned Derek that he was falling for a scam, but Derek finally found three 7th graders who agreed to participate. Derek was excited! Unfortunately, the third tier required him to convince his parents to sign up for satellite TV service, change their phone service provider, and get approved for several credit cards. Derek finally did what he should have done from the beginning and walked away from these offers.
