Do you know anyone that actually won something for sharing a company page on Facebook
 

I see so many people sharing posts from companies thay say stuff like share this or like that and win whatever.
My guess is 90% is bullshit. Nobody is gonna find out anyway and the company got 50k likes for free.

yup, free advertising. the sheep will follow

airlines are the worst..

read an article a while ago about companies being caught out awarding prizes to themselves by being careless over which account they posted from.

yeah I saw that with a lady that owned a diamond company, she won the prize :1orglaugh

yep.. free drinks with the burger :2 cents:

Anyone who re-posts that crap in hopes of winning something is retarded.

I have a cousin who shares several of those a day and also shares those, "Like this picture and facebook companies will donate 20 cents per like to this cause." I tried to explain to her that those are all just scams, but she won't believe it.

this thread answers (in part) your other facebook thread.

No, but I once clicked an image of a red flower and pressed #1 to see what would happen to the image, because that is what they told me to do. It turned into a Hobbit.

Yep the wife won a solar powered clock and a radio for the shower.
nothing great but hey it´s free.

I've won guns n' roses tickets via facebook, but not for sharing, just for liking a post and filling in the form.

Won several things on twitter for retweeting and replying to tweets

i got pack of stuff from OIL COMPANY but not for sharing, for answering on their status question, and they send it next day.

I got 2 free tickets to Tiesto

I have a FB friend who is constantly doing comps, I asked her about it once and she said she does win things. It's pretty annoying though, most of her friends are compers too, so they basically just copy what each other does.

More likes = higher edgerank = more likelihood of being shown in news feed

I won $1000 from a local camera shop. My girl nabs things all the time, mostly kids and craft stuff.

Majority of these are comedy acted over FB.

Damn, that sucks!

Just remembered I got a load of free chocolate through twitter.

I know a girl who plays fb contests all the time on her spare time with her bf. They win shit just about every week.

I won a dinner

Yeah, local / small companies, concert tickets, etc.

Ipad/phone/travel all bullshit.
