What's with all the "Sign up with your CC and get $$" posts?

    I was curious why so many posts offering money for just signing up with your CC?

    Why do they ask for it? What do they need or use your CC for?

    Some sites obviously use a CC to check your identity or to set up a billing for the end of a trial period etc.

    But if it isn't a reputable site I'd be very wary of any details being given away, especially just for signing up with a CC.
