2. Enter the letters showing in the dialogue box (Captcha code) and click “Proceed”
or simply press ENTER.
3. For the next step, share on Twitter OR Facebook. You DO NOT have to enter a custom
message. A message will be shared or tweeted on your behalf on your respective profile.
4. Repeat the process by clicking the “Here” button.
5. If you are the current holder of the prize you will be notified. If you receive
the notification, it does not mean you have the prize permanently because someone
else can grab the prize from you. Keep clicking the “Refresh” button until the system
brings you back in the race to win the prize and keep playing until the time ends.
6. Keep repeating the steps and keep grabbing to be the last unique grabber or the
most grabber or both.

alongside you to increase your chances of winning. Your friends can play for countries
other than yourself or even the same country depending on where they reside. You
will also win the same prize if any of your invited friends wins the game you both
are playing.
Q10: What is a “Captcha”?
A Captcha is a type of challenge-response test used in computing as an attempt to
ensure that the response is generated by a person (Wikipedia). We have used Captcha
in our games to make sure that a human being is playing our game. It is done to
provide fairness and equal opportunity in our games so no one can automate the system
instead of physically playing.
Q11:How can I increase my chances of winning?
On the Dashboard, click on the “View All Upcoming Games” option. You will see a
list of upcoming games. Subscribe to as many games as you want and you will start
receiving alerts for those games.
Q12:How can I increase my chances of winning?
You can increase your chances of winning by the following;
• Invite as many friends as possible and play our games along with them because
you can win through them. If any of your invitee wins the game you both are playing,
you will win the same prize as your friend. So make sure that you also inform or
remind your friends to play the game.
• You have to play consistently throughout the game to make sure that you have the
most grabs and to be playing until the end to win the unique grab.
• It will be very helpful to have a reliable internet connection and computer to
make sure that no interruptions occur during the game.
• Before the game starts make sure there are no interruptions and you are free from
your daily routine so you can concentrate fully and solely on the game.
Q13:What should I do if I am the current grabber or currently hold the prize
while playing a game?
If you are the current holder of the prize during the game, you will be notified.
If you receive the notification, it does not mean you have the prize permanently
because someone else can grab the prize from you. Keep clicking the “refresh” button
until the system brings you back in the race to win the prize and keep playing until
the time ends.
Q14:What is the “Last Unique Grabber” concept?
We have equal opportunities for everyone playing the WishFree.com games. During
the game it is not necessary that the last person holding the prize is the winner.
You need to be holding the prize at a time when no one else is.
For you to understand the “Last Unique Grabber” concept better here is an example
- Last Unique Grabber is the person who grabs the prize in a time frame unique from
others.
For example if there are three people who grabbed at 9:59, two people who grabbed
it at 9:58 but one person grabbed it at 9:57. The person who grabbed it at 9:57
is the unique grabber.
The last unique grabber is the person who held the prize closest to the end time
and at a time which is separate from other players, thus making it a unique time.
So whereas you will be using your skills to play this game, LUCK will also be an
important ingredient in the recipe of your game.
Q15:Who are my “invited” friends?
Your invited friends are those who have accepted your email request to join WishFree.com
or have clicked on your Unique Referral link available on your Dashboard and the
invite page. You can invite your friends via your social networks such as Facebook,
Twitter, Google+, emails or by any other means. It is important for your social
network circle to join by clicking on the unique referral link to be considered
your invitees. Unless your friend clicks on your referral link to join, they will
not be considered your invitees and you will not be able to win through them.
Q16:How will I win if one of my invited friend wins?
we encourage our users to invite as many friends as possible. If you and your friend
are playing the same game and your invited friend wins, you also win the same prize,
whether you win or not. It is however, mandatory that you are playing the game along
with your friend. If you were not playing the game your invited friend has won you
will not get the reward.

Q19: If my friend had won the prize and I won because he/she was my referred
friend, if he/she gets disqualified what will happen to my prize?
After a winner wins any of our games, we ask them to provide us some information
through our winner information form. If by any chance the winner gets disqualified
after the verification process, you will also get disqualified. The prize is for
the last unique grabber and if you have invited the last unique grabber. If he/she
wins after verification you will also win and vice versa.
If however, the information provided by your friend is accurate and the information
provided by you does not match your profile information at the time when the game
was played, only you will be disqualified.
Q20: How can a winner claim his/her prize?
The management of WishFree.com will contact the winners by email (support@wishfree.com)
to ask them for their account and other details for verification purposes. The winner
is required to submit his/her information within a week after the winner receives
the email from the WishFree support team. Failure to submit information within a
week will immediately lead to disqualification.
Only for those winners who have sent the support team their information within a
week, the information provided by them will be verified. After the information has
been verified the winner will get his/her prize at the end of the month of the game
won by the winner, for e.g. winners of the game played throughout April 2012 will
be given their prizes by the end of April 2012.
If any of the information provided by the winner in the winner information form
does not match the information on the winner’s profile when he/she was playing the
game, he/she will be disqualified and the runner up will win.
Q21: How will the monetary prizes be given and in which currency?
Monetary prizes will be transferred to the winners’ bank accounts. The management
of WishFree.com will contact the winners to acquire such details. The prizes for
each country are mentioned on the game with the currency given. Most of the countries
are paid in their national currency but there are some exceptions. Unless otherwise
