I got this mail from Sparsh .. one of the few geniuses i have met in life! And this is a first time he has asked me to help him. I am publishing his mail below.. do spend 2 minutes on helping him
*****************************************************************
Hello,
Hope this email finds you in good health. I need a quick favor from you and would be glad if you can devote a couple of minutes and read rest of the email and give me some very useful data for my MSc thesis.
All I want from you is to visit the website: http://sparshgupta.host56.com/
Read the instructions on the webpage and then you would be shown a dummy shopping portal comparison webpage. You then need to surf on the shopping portal webpage normally and choose the best model you would potentially buy. Once you have decided, simply click the 'Buy Now' button. You need not to give any further details there and ofcourse you won't be charged (and you won't get any laptop as well).
There are a couple of hidden layers (Javascripts) in the background that will automatically collect loads of data. I will later use that data to run some Machine Learning procedures for my research.
Incase you want further details about the work I am doing or you have a feedback, comment or query Or you just want to wish me luck, please hit the reply button.
P.S. I would get even more data which would certainly help me achieving better results, if you do the whole procedure multiple times :D (after refreshing the webpage)
Best,
Sparsh Gupta
