Rebate Bait
I just came across this story now, and I thought that it would be quite relevant to the Hot Deals crowd here.
It seems to imply that most technology-item rebates are in fact (as I have hypothesized in the past) intentially fraudulent on their face. It doesn't surprise me one bit, personally. It's a game folk, and like any game, there are going to be winners, and losers. The only way to avoid that, is to not play the game.
