i would be a bit wary of this... I love facebook but theres been stuff recently on the news etc about fraudsters setting up applications to get your personal details (phishing) and this all seems a bit similar. free fan would be good in this heat but not at the cost of my personal info! :) might be perfectly kosher just sayin as a warning tis a good idea to do your research before signin up to this.

This sounds dodgy - Avoid as you need to give your personal details over the internet to some stranger you don't know...

Anyone with common sence would avoid this!

i think its ok. you're giving them your address like you would any other freebie or comp site.

yes they can see your facebook profile, but so can every other application you add on facebook (that anyone could have made) and if you've been sensible with your profile details they arent going to see much else

Maybe lumpy_bum (love that name) is right? Grabbit r suddnly v good, actually. Is there any way to verify he's their's? Do Grabbit know about this? So many questions, so much Strongbow.http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Anyone checked that out?

Don't have a facebook so can't check it out from that angle. A fair amount of Grabbit stuff seems too good to be real but it happens. http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

Hubby's gone out with the guys and PROMISED he'd be home by 21:00 (just going out for one drink:rotfl: ).
Havent been on the freebies board in ages and there's a case of Boddingtons he left on the floor in the lounge :undecided
Mind you, its the third time this year he's gone out with the same crowd and done the same thing. I even told him this morning not to say he was coming in early and then stagger in in the wee morning:rolleyes:

I emailed him and then got a reply that I needed to verify as friend and then he could check that I had downloaded the Grabitnow application and to let let him know that I had done this and to add my address etc so that the gift could be sent.

they didnt need my addy cos mines on file from buying quite a few of their deals lol:D

lari
14-05-2008, 8:21 PM
i dont really think theres such a thing as being "too cautious", as i said, this could well be legit, but when you see articles like this it pays to be a liiiittle bit sensible with your details and how exactly you use facebook, especially when adding applications as they're created by third parties http://www.blork.org/blorkblog/2008/01/04/another-facebook-scam-secret-crush/
so was just a warning, ok, but obviously you do whatever you want. over and out.
