I was bored one day and decided to click on a little advertisment thing that was on myspace....it said pimp your ride. So i clicked it and filled out some info. and it said it would get back to me if they wanted to qualify me. Well here is the email i got......

Hi Andrew,

Congratulations! You have been chosen for the Pimp Your Ride Sponsorship! Before we go into the details on your exciting new sponsorship we want to thank you and our sponsors for making this opportunity possible. Without VerticalDoors Inc, Tsunami, RevPM.com, Blaupunkt USA, Optimal Graphics Inc., StreetFX, and our other exclusive sponsors, this would not be possible. If you are not familiar with these companies and the types of sponsorships they award, we suggest that you visit our website to learn more.

Also, because you only filled out our fast app, our sponsors require some additional questions about you and your future car plans. For your convenience, I have set up a web page for you. Please go to https://www.carsponsorships.com/qual...ponsorship.php and answer the questions to the best of your ability. Please keep in mind; we have the right to refuse your application for any reason. To ensure success, please answer the questions appropriately, clearly and truthfully. Please submit your answers as soon as possible. Once submitted, we will contact you via email or phone within 24 hours.

In the meantime, please gather any photos of your vehicle as we may require those at some point during the sponsorship period for before/after press releases.

Sincerely,

Ragen St. Peter
'Pimp Your Ride' Campaign Manager
East Coast Division



NOW IN THAT LINK YOU FILL OUT A FEW THINGS THEN IT ASKS FOR CREDIT CARD INFO. SAYING IT WILL CHARGE A ONE TIME FEW OF 90 BUCKS ONLY IF YOUR CHOSEN FOR THIS SPONSERSHIP. IM NOT GONNA DO IT BUT I FIGURED I WOULD ASK IF ANYBODY HAS SEEN IT OR IF YOU ALSO THINK ITS SOMEONE TRYING TO GET YOUR BANK INFO

 

I smell SCAM, to me it looks like they are selling you a package, with info on how to get sponsored by those companies., it doesnt look like someone is trying to get you card info, but they will charge you those 89 buck, and thats it, for them, but if you get 100 idiots to see the same ad you saw they get 8900 bucks, with little effort.
good call in not filling the card info,
suck for all the people that are going to get

 

Im pretty sure its a scam!!!!!!!!

 

This has been posted before... They accept your card info and send you a few vinyl graphics. Nothing but SCAM!!

 

Actually I did this some time ago. They send out your info to all those companies and let you know if they want to fully sponsor you or give a partial sponsorship. I got a lot of partial sponsorships from a lot of the companies. They send you catalogs with discounted prices since you are partialy sponsored by them. Pretty good deals too. Then you can purchase the items from them and their catch is that you place their vinyl stickers on your car, send them pictures of the install and picture of the vinyls on your car, and they also tell you that you need to leave the vinyls on for a period of time.

By the way the company https://www.carsponsorships.com, they keep looking and trying to get you more sponsoships.

My only problem is I never have the money to purchase these things LOL!!

 

I would be suspicious of a company who's registerred name is suspicious:

Domain Name: CARSPONSORSHIPS.COM
Registrar: INNERWISE, INC. D/B/A ITSYOURDOMAIN.COM
Whois Server: whois.itsyourdomain.com
Referral URL: http://www.itsyourdomain.com
Name Server: NS.CARSPONSORSHIPS.COM
Name Server: NS1.CARSPONSORSHIPS.COM
Status: REGISTRAR-LOCK
Updated Date: 23-mar-2006
Creation Date: 23-sep-2003
Expiration Date: 23-sep-2014

From what I could fine, this looks like a company that sells domain names, and not auto specialists.

 

Hey thanks for all the info fellers....it would be cool to be sponsored but most likely will not happen....i will save it for when i get to the lower 48....alaska sucks

 

if it sounds too good to be true,,,,then it is
