Free attorney ad requires a credit card before any answer

The ad says "ask an attorney for free," implying that you will get an answer for free. It does not work that way. You must give a credit card number to get anything. It is totally deceptive, and I don't care if there are real people behind it or not.

There are great alternatives. I am an expert at one of them, where it is all really free. I do it for the fun of it. I don't need to get paid, since I am a VP and Chief Technology Officer of a good-sized company and I get paid enough there. Yes, there are some poor experts there, but the rating system weeds them out pretty fast. People say to me, "I see you really are an expert," so they are suspicious and discerning.

I would gladly pay an attorney for advice on an internet web site, but, as at his office, I'm not going to pay without results. JustAnswer does it the wrong way. They make you trust them first, and this is the best way to get ripped off on the internet. If it were really free and I got good answers, I would pay them. A real web site would allow that to happen for the first round at least.
