If you get the $100 by sending in the rebate, then it's not deceptive.. it's simply marketing strategy.. nothing misleading or deceptive about it...

If you actually get 1000 free minutes when signing up with aol then it's marketing strategy.. mothing misleading about it..

If they offer one thing, then deliver another, then it's deceptive..

Lots of main stream businesses have their marketing strategies, but the deliver what they offer, or they'd be hung out to dry..

It seems that the adult biz is the only one that seems to think it's ok to screw their customers in one form or another.. primarily because they know that Joe Customer won't go yelling too loud out of fear of people knowing what they've been doing..
