What's this iPod site?

http://www.freeipods.com/

I just saw this in a Google ad. How does this work? Is this a scam?

I am so financialy screwed right now I sat down and read ALL of the fine print on those. You have to sign up for a couple different clubs, but all of them require a credit card or social security number or the purchase of something, and the ones that would obviously not need those things to sign up for are dead links, plus the URL for the sites like BMG music club still maintain freeipods.com/blah blah ..

My theory is they are a script that snags like the entire BMG site so that it looks exactly the same so you are not leary, and replaces all the form send data to BMG to form send data to evil scammer.. if I am wrong, well someone should get on the ball and do that scam .. me maybe hmmm *strokes evil mustache*

Or they are real and I am just paranoid

got code?
