Hi guys and gals,
I got this interesting articles from our friend : James. Credit goes to him!
It's about a federal class action lawsuit was filed that names both social game operator Zynga and the social network Facebook as defendants.
See the full articles here :

I don't wanna discuss about this furthermore.. because I only done small offers which gave me small amount of GodFather points. Never had real experience of spending my money on the offers.
If you're playing the game on FaceBook and specially Zynga's games, just be careful on doing offers to get the points. You can see the offers on your GodFather page. There were some offers there. I said were, because now I only see "payment providers" there. I guess they are trying hard to fix their ads problem now.
Why doing offers is bad? Because you will get lots of spams on your browser.. lots of pop-ups, emails, sms, bla bla bla.. And the worst of it, you lost your money and got nothing!
I'm not telling all offers, but most! You can still doing offers and then prepare yourself with ads and pop up blockers, etc..So if in the future there will be another offers, you know how to deal with it.. Just be careful, guys.. enjoy your game and play safe..

interesting..lets wait and see what happens
wow this is old news but i gotta say...u are really fuckin stupid for putting ur real info..i put fake info and got alot of godfather points, farmcash and other ingame money for other zynga games by doing these surveys. some of theme i just open and closed and got the ingame cash after 15 minutes..when i first heard this i got sooo pissed because its always some asshole that ruins it for everyone else..oh if i remember correctly the ones that ask for cell phone numbers did infact say (in fineprint) $9.99 a month. i said this once in another forum for farmville and im gonna say it again here, i hope these assholes lose the case for stupidity
oh also if they bring back the surveys, make a fake email for them or if u dont wanna do that check out www.10minutemail.com .....its a disposable email that lasts 10 minutes
It wasnt one person that ruined it for everyone, a class action is a lawsuit filled by multiple people, so its obviously a problem thats been impacting alot of people. I think Zynga shuld have done more to protect its players, including doing these offers themselves to observe the negatives eg. Spam.
Actually the people who ruin it is the Highboi, since the only source of income besides the gf points is these things, so with the 10 min emails, the no opt in, the fake this fake that, they indeed get flagged for massive amounts of fake or dead emails, in return zynga gets dropped, but hey he got his gf
yup i got my godfather points and not scamed for $100+ and since when does everyone all of a sudden play by the rules?! im sure if u was getting over 100 godfather points absolutely free u wont be complaining the way i see it..the ppl that abused the glitch is against the lawsuit and the ppl that acutally payed is for them...
