Free Godfather Points in Mobsters Guide: (Step By Step Walkthrough)
1. Make sure your browser accepts cookies (See Below ), these are the lifeline between your offers and the Super Rewards system.
2. Always clear your cookies, before AND after a survey.
3. Some surveys will send activation e-mails to your spam inbox, if you aren’t getting your points, check there to see if you have to click an activation link.
4. Be wary of the fine print (It is the small gray text beneath all of the offers on the godfather page)
5. Don’t perform offers back-to-back, I find you usually end up with nothing to show for it. 10-15 Minutes between seems to work out
6. Always register with mostly correct info. I never provide my real phone number, the offers I’m about to list do not wish to call you, but they will endlessly spam your e-mails spam archive.
7. Any offer that says “Reward Points awarded upon completion of all questions”, “Reward Points awarded upon completion of questionaire”, or “Reward Points awarded upon completion of survey” are in my opinion and experience, the easiest ones to meet the requirements for, and generally yield easy points.

==================Part 1: The basics of free godfather points
When you see the Godfather page, you notice a few things. Your GF points, some options for spending those points, and finally a number of ways to get more GF points. There are actually four ways to get more:
a) Get achievements.
b) Buy them using paypal, a credit card, etc.
c) Complete offers (the big part of this guide)Part 2: Mobsters Achievements for Godfather Points
There isn’t much to say here. You complete an achievement, get the medal and more favor points. Bronze medals get you 1 more FP, silver 2, gold 3, and platinum 3 more. So far, any mobster can collect 90 FP from achievements alone.Part 3: Buying Godfather Points
Again, not much to say. You pay for a specific amount of favor points, at 25 cents per point. There are multiple methods to pay, including paypal, amazon, and a credit card.Part 4: Offers
Offers are simply links to websites from companies that Super Rewards/Offerpal (known from here on as SR/OP) lists in an iframe on the Godfather page of the Mobsters game. You click on an offer, it takes you to some webpage which asks for you to input your personal details, and then supposedly you are magically rewarded with extra FPs. Not to mention lots of spam.It is very true that these offers are heavily weighted towards making sales on the advertiser’s end and sending spam email. However if you give them a secondary email address, it’s no fault of yours (it is your email, after all) and you can still have access to the confirmation emails. Just always make sure you know what you’re agreeing to before clicking the “okay” button.
One last thing, the importance of which will become apparent in the next sections: when you click on an offer, make sure that you write down the offer name and the main part of the url it takes you to.
Part 5: How to actually complete an offer
Many people have many different ideas about what actually constitutes completing an offer. I think it’s obvious that completing offers that specifically say they require a purchase means that you must actually pay for and receive whatever service or product they’re advertising. But as for the free offers, it can be a little ambiguous just what they want you to do.They want your personal information so they can contact you further for more chances of you reading their spam and deciding suddenly that you want to buy from them. They probably have no intention of ever sending you that $1000 giftcard, possibly unless you complete loads and loads of THEIR sponsored offers which will likely require you to spend more money than their “special gift” is probably really worth. Make sure you note the difference between SR/OP offers and advertiser offers.
Make sure you read all the text under the SR/OP offer name on the Godfather page. That lists everything you need to do to “rightfully” be owned FPs. It’s not what you need to do in order to get the “free Nintendo Wii” or whatever, but it is what you have to do to get your FPs.
Sometimes, unfortunately, the little text underneath the SR/OP offer name will actually say you have to complete an advertiser offer (as opposed to saying you must “select” or “click” on an offer, or not even bringing it up at all). These SR/OP offers can still be listed as “free” because many of the in-offer offers are “free trials” which usually end up charging you after the first month unless you specifically cancel “at any time”. Since you can choose one of these “free trials”, then a purchase isn’t “required”, though you may end up spending money in the near future.
Most free SR/OP offers, however, simply require you to “provide accurate email and registration”. “Registration” means entering in your name and address information on what usually turns out to be the second page of the SR/OP offer. Once you do that, you can theoretically exit the offer and still be “owed” favor points.
However, if the text under the SR/OP offer name mentions “selecting” or “clicking on” an advertiser offer, you’re going to have to bear through the dozens of intermediate advertiser offers which don’t count towards the one mentioned in the SR/OP offer. Instead, you have to keep going, and going, and going, and going, all the way through to the “last steps” page, and click on one of the offers there. Wait for the new window to load all the way, then close it, then close out from the “last steps” window and whatever popups it generates.Part 6: When you don’t get your FPs
This part is pretty straightforward, but it deserves it’s own section anyways.
Each SR/OP offer has a certain “reporting time”. That means that it usually takes the advertiser that much time to report to SR/OP that you completed the offer. See the full description of the system in part 7 for more info.
Before assuming that your FPs just didn’t arrive, make sure you wait the reporting time. It could be anywhere from a few minutes to a week or two. You’ll find it underneath the SR/OP offer title, with the description. Sometimes it takes longer than the reporting time for the advertiser to actually report, but after you wait that time, you can contact the customer service and have them hurry it along. Though sometimes they aren’t very fast themselves. SR/OP says that 95% of the time, the offer works correctly, but I think it’s actually closer to the other way around (5% of the time or less).
Anyway, when you go to your SR/OP completed offer list (the green button on the GF page, just above the SR/OP offers) you should see a list of the offers, and to the right of each, a link that will take you to the customer service form. Actually, on OP, you may not see a link there until the reporting time has passed.
So if it’s SR or if it’s OP and the time has passed, the link will be there. On SR it’ll say “Missing Favor Points?” and on OP it’ll say “Contact Support”. Click that link, wait for the form to pop up, and fill it out. In the part where you can write a message, don’t even bother putting what you did, when you did, etc. Just say hello, I completed this offer, here is the confirmation email. Then paste whatever account confirmation email you received from the offer.
This is why you need to write down the url of the site the SR/OP offer took you to. If you forget, you don’t know what to look for in your email inbox. I suggest using gmail for your secondary email account, because it has a very good search system. Just type in the name of the site, and it brings up all the emails from that site.
But what if no email ever came? This happens about 75% of the time with me, or possibly even more than that. In this case, you’re going to need to go to the advertiser’s website (hopefully, as I mentioned, you wrote down their name. Otherwise, you’re pretty screwed at this point if you don’t remember it yourself.) and find whatever page or link that takes you to a page which will allow you to either log in and view your account status, or to just type your email and check on the “status” of your offer.
At that point, once you’ve entered in your email address (it should be the one you used with the offer) and pasted the confirmation email/screenshot (if you do this, make sure you mention that you went to the site, “logged in”, and took a screenshot of a page containing your account details), click the submit button. Whichever offer you clicked the adjacent customer service link will then have the text “processing your feedback” or something of that nature.
Now all you can really do is wait. I’d suggest waiting about a week before suspecting your messages were ignored. Sadly, it does happen. Though a lot of the time, I’ve noticed that I’ll do a bunch of offers, send in all the customer service forms, and nothing will happen until a week or two later when all my offers are suddenly credited all at once (and I end up with 100+ FPs).
NOTE: Offerpal recently told me that they have a “zeroing out” policy. That is, they empty the complaint queue every day. My submitted complaints have seemed to go through faster lately, but others can take up to a week.
Now if you do wait about a week or so, with no response, don’t curse them out. Send an email to their customer service email address, which can be found on the super rewards and offerpal websites. I forget the exact URLs, just google the names and you’ll find it quickly. These always tend to take a number of days to be returned, but so far each of my emails to the offerpal customer service address have been returned at some point. If this still doesn’t work, super rewards or offerpal must truly hate you. Unfortunately at this point, I suggest picking a different offer and starting the process over again.
Part 7: The system and what to make of it when nothing works
Here’s where the majority of issues turn up. Just how do offers work? Is there any way to get a better chance of receiving my points? To answer this, it’s important that you learn just how the system functions.I recently sent an email to Super Rewards and asked them just how their system worked and why people might never receive points. Their full response would take up too much space here in this thread, but essentially they told me the process works in the following way:
1) User clicks on offer
2) SR/OP logs that offer was clicked
3) Offer is completed, and advertiser sends a notification to SR/OP.
4) SR/OP sends a postback to the app developer (in this case, the GF).
5) The postback triggers FPs to be awarded.What they also explained was that the reasons most offers fail were:
1) User doesn’t complete offer all the way but thinks they’re owed FPs
2) Pixel misfire with the advertiser; basically an error in step 3. In this case SR/OP never receives notification of completion and can’t do anything without your sending in the customer service form.Part 8: Conclusions
As we know, the offers are run by SR/OP. However, ever notice how when you click on the paypal/etc. button it shows up in the list of your completed offers? Well what some may not know is that the paypal, amazon, etc. options for buying FPs are ALSO managed by SR/OP. You are paying THEM, not the GF, and then that factors in to what THEY pay the GF based on the number of offers and the money that was paid to them through the options above the offers. The GF has even said in the old support form that he doesn’t have any power with SR and OP; all he can do was relay messages to them and hope they do their job. Chances are if SR/OP is blowing you off, they’ll blow off the GF as well. Thus I conclude from that, that when you don’t receive your favor points, you should complain to SR/OP, not the GF. After all, he can’t do anything if he doesn’t receive a postback, and complaining to/about him won’t get you your favor points award or get your money returned.Part 9: So which offers should you do?
Great, so you’ve got all this info, so which offers should you actually do?First, my recommendation is to use offerpal over super rewards. They tend to be more responsive and understanding with customer service requests.
But which types of offers should you do, regardless of the company? Well first of all, don’t touch the mobile offers. They require you to input your cell number, usually so they can send you a PIN and you can use that as offer confirmation. However since you take your cellphone wherever you go, it also means that you’ll be getting spam calls wherever you go.
What about the ones that require a credit card? I wouldn’t advise lending out your visa number to any of the offers; instead, get a pre-paid visa giftcard and use that. Only put so much money on it, and that way, if for some reason your giftcard’s security is compromised, you can only lose as much money as you have on the card. In that case you can just throw it away and get another one. But these offers on the whole are pretty reliable, since you’ve spent money and should have a very strong claim to your favor points.
Now, the free offers. I’ve described the free offers above (how to “complete” them) but which ones should you actually do? Go for the highest-paying ones, usually about 18 or 20, but watch out for the ones that require you to complete an offer. Read that little text underneath the offer name to know for sure. After you’ve exhausted them, go for the 15s, and then the 13s, then 11s and 9s. Make sure the ones you do, only have little text that says “provide accurate registration” (possibly along with some other random text); the point is that some require you to order a free trial, or apply for a discover card, etc. When you get down to 5s and 6s, be careful–most of these are “quizzes” that either pay out or they don’t. That is, most of them don’t ever send confirmation emails. So either the offer reports and you get your points, or it doesn’t, and you have no way to prove offer completion. (except, possibly, taking a screenshot of your quiz result. I don’t know if this works for sure.) Since these pay out so few points, I’d advise against even bothering with them.
Sadly, after a while, free offers will dry up. And until offerpal adds more to their list, you’re probably going to end up stuck either repeatedly doing the quiz offers, or otherwise dishing out real world cash for the points. At this point, you should close the computer, take a step back, and walk outside in the fresh air. LOL.

Your “Anti-Bot” script is broken, after signup it doesn’t show the page, and the page actually loads before the “Anti-Bot” screen, so the “Bots” get to it anyways…
You’re just using imaginary “Mobsters Anti Cheat” bots as an excuse to spam visitors with obtrusive crap and make a little extra money from your site.

I’m pretty sure AdBlock (the firefox addon) can also prevent you from getting points, at least on some offers. I did the Gamefly offer since I was already going to sign up there anyhow but AdBlock was blocking some script, cookie or other function that was what they were using to associate my clickthru from mobsters to their site. I ended up getting my points after notifying the godfather of the situation, but still it’s something to look out for.

well doing the mobile offers arent really bad and they ARE FREE we have done multiple mobile offers and we have gotten up to 84 points for each. they send you a pin and you enter it on the website then you save the text message but you have to text the word stop back to the number the text originated from. keep the text message in your phone until offerpal customer servce clears your stuff or u have to type the contents of the text(s) in their little box…..works great and they never send u spam afeter they text u and say u are not subscrbed and they are free
