Yes I did it or at least was going to. I got my materials in the mail and then my mom got sick and had to go into the hospital off and on for about a month. I called and told them plus emailed them and told them what was going on. I still have the email telling me that was ok if I wanted to keep and not begin until things around here got situated. About a week later, I got a letter from them demanding the system back, that I was fired from the program and if I did not return system in 5 days the price of the scanner would go to collections and be put on my credit report. You better bet I sent that darn thing back and the heck with them.

I've been scanning for about two years now. You just scan what you buy and transmit once a week.

Isn't there some kind of incentive or reward program attached to this?

I haven't done it yet. Rewards from what I understand.
