"I lost 36 lbs in 3 days following this one rule" read the advertisement spotted by 21 year-old Jim Bruce. After clicking the link he was asked to fill out several surveys which took around 35 minutes to complete. Following the 35 minutes of expressing his opinion on the what he looks for in a microwave, he began to grow impatient. Luckily, he was "ALMOST THERE!" He wasn't even close. The site forced him to sign up for a 4 week trial of DirectTV and to receive samples of Your Pretty Cosmetics. When asked to fill out another survey in order to receive weight loss information, Jim threw his laptop out his three story dorm window and promptly followed it on the way down.
