I do believe there are laws in place to prevent people from doing this?

Why would that be illegal?
I give away stuff at booths (shows that people buy stuff at, not our Industry) to attract people in to buy my products. I give away newsletters, free information, books, kits, all types of free stuff, like t-shirts, hats, and so on to keep the attention. Even cash contests, free tv's, and my own products.
We make double giving away free stuff vs. when we don't..... but that's baby logic.
Did the reward point systems of some programs ever attract you? Well, if it didn't, it without question attracted many many Webmasters.
I'm so tired of hearing this give away free shit doesn't work theory. HELLO GOOGLE - YOUR ENTIRE BUSINESS MODEL IS WRONG! You people here are so geared into business mind of sell sell sell, buy buy buy, that you can't see that 1000's of things around you are free.
Like the people drinking coffee at starbucks as they jump on the Internet for free..
