Fasten your seatbelts, because starting 1 April 2005 you could win 1 of 250 convertible BMWs with Vegas Partner Lounge Casinos! That's right here's your chance to win your very own BMW Convertible.
All you need to do is deposit and wager 150 casino credits within 24 hours to qualify for the daily draw! Terms and Conditions apply for more information visit Outdated URL (Invalid).

Man... that's a lot of BMW's, I'm thinking. Is Vegas Partners really big enough to support such a giveaway? So I click the link to view the terms and conditions, all still looks well. Hmmm... some suspicious asterisks though. You have to click yet another further link, and... finally...
It turns out if you deposit and wager a pile of money, you could be the lucky owner of one of Link Removed ( Old/Invalid) . That'll look sweeeet in your driveway. If you happen to be Ken or Barbie.
Actually... just kidding, sucker!! The one at that link is an impressive 1:18 (and sells for a whopping $24.95), the ones that Vegas Partners are giving away are only 1:43.
Can you imagine not reading the fine print, "winning" and then finding out what you received? Especially if you lost a few grand in the process?
WHY do companies belittle their reputations with cheap stunts like this??
