    Be cautious of deals that offer money or rewards for watching ads, as some may be scams.

    Free money on social media? Nah. It’s a scam

    Say you’re scrolling through your social media feed and you see a post saying, “I’m the winner of $600 million from the Powerball lottery. I’m giving away $50,000 to the first one thousand people to message me.” Would you answer? If you do, you could become the target of a scam.

    There’s also this app that promises free movie tickets in exchange for watching ads. I don’t know if it is still around nowadays.

    PreShow uses facial-recognition tech to constantly monitor you during 20 minutes of advertising—and if you look away, it pauses automatically.

    They should do this for airlines.

    An airline that offers cheaper flights by forcing people to watch ads during the flight and by selling ad space inside of the plane but you get to choose the ads that you see.
