OK, here's the deal.
One of my referrals who is my brother (who will be my 5th green) is planning on completing one of the offers on freeipods.com
He lives at a different address than me but his credit card bill gets sent to my house since he uses the same bank even though he lives a city away and it is more practical that way for him to get his bills filed.
Will this set off a red alarm even thought he has a unique shipping address?

Per Household
Different house = Ok

But it seems to be a grey area...
He lives in a different household with a unique IP and credit card number...but that credit card bills to my house, where I signed up

He just can't do the same offer as you...Gratis won't see his billing address, just the shipping address...However the offer companies usually won't let 2 people from the same billing address sign up. So just have him do a different offer than you.

Ok I did Infone and he's doing BlockBuster but are you sure Gratis won't see the billing address?

You should be looking at the privacy policy for the company sponsoring the offer you completed, not for FreeiPods.com.

When Does Blockbuster Collect Personal Information?
Blockbuster collects personal information from you when you voluntarily submit that information to Blockbuster, for example when you apply for a customer membership in our stores; register on a Site; sign up for a subscription service; register for our e-newsletter service; participate in one of our sweepstakes, contests, or surveys; [b0021c96fc3]respond to an offer[/b0021c96fc3]; purchase or rent products; or request to be on a mailing list. After you have registered your e-mail address on the Site and if you have clicked "Remember Me" or signed in to the Site, Blockbuster collects Site behavior and browser information as you navigate through the Site. This information may be used to create a profile that we keep on individual Users that details their preferences, personal information and behavior. Consequently, collected information is tied to the User's personally identifiable information and may be used to provide offers and improve the content of the Site for the User. This profile may also be used to tailor a User's visit to our Web Site, and to direct pertinent marketing promotions to them.
[b0021c96fc3]We may also collect personal information from other sources.[/b0021c96fc3] For example, we purchase third party marketing data and add it to our existing databases of User and Member information to better target our advertising and provide pertinent offers we think our Users and Members would be interested in. We use this information to enhance or overlay the 'profile' of individual Users. [b0021c96fc3]This aggregate marketing data is therefore tied to the User's or Member's personally identifiable
information.[/b0021c96fc3]
So does that mean they would use billing address as information to sell to others?

Gratis will not see your credit card info. My sister and I completed offers using the same cards. You'll be alright as long as you use different computers.

tuna - have you been approved yet?? it seems that if they allow usage of the same credit card then it would be very easy to complete offers for yourself. i could be wrong though ?
