Mightn't this pose a problem? I know, I know, nobody actually cares about the fine print, but I wouldn't want MacInsiders to get in trouble for encouraging 'fradulent accounts' or something like that in the future. Of course, I'm probably just over-reacting  |
I've contacted PunchTab and they have responded saying that it is perfectly fine for us to signup and claim the prizes, see their response below. The giftcards are just for amazon.com (not .ca) so keep in mind you'll have to redeem the giftcard on the .com site. Also, you can redeem Zynga on Facebook games (CityVille, FarmVille, etc).

Hi Chad!
"Thanks for reaching out. Your users in Canada can absolutely user the service and redeem gift cards for Amazon.com."
"...And your Canadian users will be happy to know our founder is Canadian. We've even got Tim Horton's coffee in our office!"

I believe you have to be part of Twitter and/or FB, I don't participate in either. |
