Gratispremium.info, real or scam?

Hello people,

While browsing on the interwebs I've stumbled upon a site where they promise you can earn free accounts for games or membership simply by giving out a refferal link to your friend and for every hit you get a "poäng"; swedish(?) for points. With these points you can choose rewards (ea 5 hits would get you a month of spotify premium, 30 hits for a minecraft account).

"The site, with your poäng count at the top and the reward list at the bottom"


The first thing i found odd was the amount of clicks needed to get rewards, seeing there are no ads on the site. I shared my refferal link and without minutes i had my first 5 hits, whered i was able to choose the first reward "Spotify premium 1 month". I immediately clicked on redeem, why bother trying to gather more hits when you first want to know if its actually legit? Guess what, right away i got the famous survey screen with the most annoying surveys possible; I dont want an subscription on f*cking ringtones or fill in a 1 hour survey to win a car you won't win and as a bonus free spam in your inbox for life! You know what they say, if it's too good to be true, it probably is, and thats whats going on here too.

"Survey list you get after pressing redeem"

I gotta be honest, i havent been past the survey menu, but gave up on it already and marked it as fake. I havent heard from anyone yet that it works and my bet is, i probably won't see it either, if i'm wrong, tell me in the comments and i will take it all back, but my suggestion is that you shouldnt waste your time on this!

THIS IS FAKE!

Good night,

    @Razor
    Actually after a day i was kind of curious and did a pretty easy survey (was a download, glad i have a decent av ;-P) and after it was done i could download a file. So i clicked on the file and guess what, nothing happened! Also seen a lot more scamsites like this going around, but this seemed to be in the spotlight the most.

    Ugh, I hate these kinds of things. I tried SwagBucks... To my surprise it actually worked.. just takes forever to earn the points. Good read man.

    Those "Free" sites are all scams for the most part. Pyramid schemes or other nonsense. Thanks for the heads up, though.
