^haha

what a fucknig joke .... rigged

Jegz 02-14-2011 11:45 AM

so wtf was the point of all this

Berzerker 02-14-2011 11:49 AM

The soft launch was probably like those stock market scams where they get people to buy into something creating false interest and making the stock rise without a legitimate reason.

They needed a "customer" base to actually apply to companies to get deals "Look how many people we have that we will be providing your free advertising for if you give us a deal on it."

It's understandable and to be honest if they needed X amount of users to be a viable "company" like this then no harm done. They haven't asked for anything other than your mail address and some Picture tagging here and there. If they didn't reach enough people to make this a viable entity then it is US who kind of failed. They were out there promoting their site and their business and even paying to advertise and paying people to appear and promote for them. So I don't think it's a scam in the sense of the word as perhaps just a failed venture thus far.

However if they were indeed faking prizes and giveaways and rigging winners that falls into the bullshit category and I will be one of the many who will turn my back on them.

Berz out.

then again they could SOMEHOW use ur personal information from the facebook signups and email address for identity theft/scam purposes am i right?
"the daily steal :fullofwin:"

Berzerker 02-14-2011 12:58 PM

I dunno could they? I have no idea how that works. I've heard rumors lately of it but really how does a Facebook page and email address equate to identity theft?

Berz out.

Vansterdam 02-14-2011 01:06 PM

i presume once you click "like" on a facebook page it allows the person to access your profile with all your information and such

if that dosent work the OP could always sell all our email addresses to those giant spam companies


i will give them the benefit of the doubt .. for now

The Daily Steal

Saturday at 3:11pm

The Daily Steal
The deals will come soon.... Thanks for being patient. We don't want to wait any longer than anyone of you... just doing some final tweaks on the site to make sure it will be perfect before we launch!
about an hour ago


wasent there a bunch of people who won stuff from revscene? did you guys ever get your giftcards etc.?

RevRav 02-14-2011 01:06 PM

Anyone else here signed up for the referral money thing?
Each person you refer... you get $1 cash, instead of $5 credit.

Have anyone been able to get their cheque / money through paypal?

Jegz 02-14-2011 01:26 PM

The Daily Steal stealing daily. What a fail.

tiger_handheld 02-14-2011 02:03 PM

Sorry for the lack of update guys...... lots have been happening recently, including something big but we couldn't disclose it yet.

Berzerker 02-28-2011 04:45 PM

Wonder if that's Anthony Espinossa's new company?

ThedailyLetMeKnow?

Berz out.

TheDailySteal 02-28-2011 04:45 PM

And lol no we are not here to scam....... but more of a business acquisition and a slight change of business plan.

TheDailySteal 02-28-2011 04:56 PM

And wow didn't know there were so many replies here....didn't receive any new post notification.

insomniac 02-28-2011 04:58 PM

TheDailySteal 02-28-2011 04:59 PM

We actually never thought about that, well until they just recently announced it.

But hey if the lucky winner got it for free, I am sure it's still good!

RevRav 02-28-2011 05:08 PM

Sorry TheDailySteal, but 80% of RS just gave up on you already.

TheDailySteal 02-28-2011 05:13 PM

That's okay. It's not something we want to hear, but we understand that's how it goes.....

We will still do our best.

Berzerker 02-28-2011 05:16 PM

I'm still waiting for my iPad that I never won....

Berz out.

TheDailySteal 02-28-2011 05:18 PM

I believe we are only a few hundred away, shouldn't be too far away!!
