No, it's a pyramid scheme, and not a very successful one at that, or
you would at least have said that you'd actually received your iPod.

Howzabout this - iPod first, check-out on receipt...

LOL - are you for real? This is the 21st century and you're on the
internet. Who actually pays for their videos and music? Apparently
you do, and that's why you're shilling for spammers.

But not actually getting one. Don't worry though - even though I'm not
interested in your offer, I find you quite interesting. In this day
and age, long after the internet boom of the late 1990's, there are
still losers who fall for these schemes then shamelessly expect others
to do the same.
