LeapFish Dash for Cash terms of service


There is a terms of service page if you happen to click to the bottom of the main page.   Definitely go check it out if you’re entering the contest, since there are some rules you’ll clearly want to make sure you’re following if you’re going to participate and make sure that all your tactics to earn points are legitimate and that you’re not accidentally banned or have your points taken away from you.  That could potentially be a lot of effort wasted by not reviewing them.
Of course, the terms mention that you cannot use automated means to generate content or friends.  Thus, the article spinners and spammers are out of the game, unless they find clever ways to create unique looking content that passes manual review by the LeapFish folks.  And then there are the folks that will generate fake views of their YouTube video by having bots hit the video from a multitude of IP addresses.  Without having enough real looking comments, it will be reasonably easy to determine if this is fraud, especially if that user does not have a history of generating highly popular videos and is already a big name.
So be careful in what methods you use!
