It's guys like you who give 3 card Monte a bad name!  I'm sure that just like the free Iphone industry, they're just trying to make an honest buck.

More likely farming names to sell to other businesses.

That's odd that it would have locked up on submission - give it another shot / different browser?

I apologize - I wasn't aware of that. Didn't read the fine print :lol

There would be an opt-out option that would remove you from the list should they (Thrustmaster) decide to send out e-mails.

But it's a chance to win free stuff
