4. Complete the offer until you reach the confirmation/completion page unless otherwise stated.
5. Use each email address to the fullest.
Another helpful trick to extend the life of your emails is to place periods in them. When doing freebie offers you need to use a different email address for each offer. Instead of setting up hundered of email accounts which is not only time consuming but also very wasteful. Lets say you set up an email account of pinkfuzzychickens@gmail.com.
On your first freebie you'll put in pinkfuzzychickens@gmail.com
then on the next you'll use p.inkfuzzychickens@gmail.com and then p.i.nkfuzzychickens@gmail.com and so on until you get to the last letter before the at sign. Then you can start a new email address and begin again. If using Gmail just send an invite to yourself to set up a new one and follow the link. I also suggest setting up one email that you use just for paid offers. Gmail has the "star" feature that can be used to highlight or mark confirmations so that you can find them easily when you need them.
Antivirus
Some sites recommend that you turn off your antivirus programs because they interfere with offer tracking. I personally have never found this to be the case and I use Norton.
Firewall
Some sites also recommend that you turn off your firewall. Thats a personal decision on your end. I have at times completed offers with my firewall disabled and other times had them credit with it enabled.
When filling out the freebie forms make sure you use accurate information. Lying about your name/address etc will risk your account being placed on hold and your earnings revoked. You shouldn't worry about getting a lot of junk mail through the postal service. I've been very active with gpt programs for 6 months and I might get 1-2 extra pieces of junk mail per week. However, the email accounts you use on the freebie offers will get hit with a lot of junk/spam. This is why you never use your main email account when submitting freebie offers. The trial offers are different. They are mostly with reputable, honest companies who have a strict privacy policy and will not sell/share your personal info with anyone else.
