Take the time to read the small print, offering something for free, that is actually a limited trial or requiring an inflated shipping and handling payment is standard operating procedure. As long as there is a small print disclaimer they are making a token effort to conform to FTC guidelines. Educating yourself is is more realistic than getting such deceptive advertisements eliminated.
In the future take care to guard against the more shady operators who offer something for free, but require you to pay a shipping fee with a credit card, some will make additional unauthorized charges once they have your card#.
