Proof pictures

murphaloid · 26-08-10, 07:23 PM

Hey guys

I'm new and not trading yet but have a question.

Do proof pictures really work? Most of them seem to be a photo of the free gift. Is that all that counts as proof these days? All that proves is that you have an iphone and took a picture of it, or that you borrowed the picture from somewhere else. It doesn't prove anything about where it came from or how you got it.

Do potential referrals actually find that convincing? I know I don't, but I do have other reasons for believing its not a scam and that's why I'm here.

well done on getting your free gift

What about Bank Transfers? It will have the name of the Freebie Company on there.

OK I haven't seen that but I guess that's a lot more convincing

Well, I make videos of how I acutally unbox the gift and show the receipt. (Check my sig spoiler)

Is that convincing?

Ah...a receipt..thats more like it! I dont understand why more people dont do that

I believe that Amiethest also done a video of her unboxing an iPad and it shows a receipt.

YouTube - Unboxing my free iPad! Yay! How to get a free iPad!

Could just do an unboxing like suggested or add the receipt with your prize in the picture + a little piece of paper saying that you got it from freebiejeebies.
