  See, I would have given odds that you would have trouble with that website and transaction. ;-) 
  
  Too soon? :-)

  A note on taking surveys! If you do elect to take surveys as a means of earning credits (I myself do this a lot) it's best to set up a separate E-Mail address that you really do not care about and let it absorb all those unwanted ads and messages that result! Like they say, there is more then one way to skin a cat!!!  lol

  Pingkin,

  I appreciate your reply, as today I'm kinda feeling like the the "dummy" in the car crash commercial. Didn't think much about it at the time, as I've been earning free bonus points on offers for 5 years, & even earned 8k or 10k in points (I forget) about 4 years ago for just applying (successfully) for a Discover credit card. Never had any problem until now, but it's made me even more cautious, & I don't easily get conned. FYI or anyone else, the offer was under the heading of Casino Deals24, but after clicking on it, the first website I was directed to was Diamond Reels. Which casino did you use, & where & when if I may ask?   Thx Slimjym

  Pingkin,

  I appreciate your reply, for today I'm feeling a little like the "dummy" in the car crash commercials. I'm a fairly cautious person & very careful about fraudulent websites, but didn't think too much when going for this offer since I have earned points dozens of times with offers the past 5 yrs. In fact I earned 8K or 10K (I forget exactly) before for (succesfully) appying for a Discover credit card. FYI, or anyone else, this offer was under the heading "Casino Deals24" after which I was directed to Diamond Reels". Wonder what casino you used, where, & when if I may ask?    Thx Slimjym

  The Discover offer was 4400 and the Chase card was 8000....

  There was a thread a while back about ripoff Casino offers however several people reported being paid by those very same offers...

  Seems it was mostly European members who were cheated if I remember correctly....

  I avoid offers altogether and would not give a credit card # to any of them I wasn't familiar with much less a Casino LOL

  I did an offer with William Hill bookmakers.It was a while back now.a simple case of creating an account depositing £20 and making a bet.the offer said 7500 free credits at the time and it all came to me just fine.This is a very big gambling company here in the UK.No idea if you have it in the US but i expect you do.

  Didnt win my bet on Ferrari but got myself some nice nike clubs! :)
