MT Giveaway Clear-Up (Directed towards Giveaway Experts)

I see that there will be a giveaway running for Norton Antivirus and one running for Total Uninstall Professional that requires their name, email address, and country. I have no problem providing my first name, but a little uncomfortable providing my last name to any website or member. Email address and country is no problem for me too. Do I need to use my first + last name or only first?

Thanks, Fantasy, but is that okay to do? I don't like not following the rules...

Sometimes you have to be a little "bad" person

Lol , I like how you said "little bad person", however, I would like somebody who knows if a fake name is okay or not.

Do I know your real name?

If for some reason you don't feel it is safe to give your name out on a site then you shouldn't be forced.

I normally call myself Bob

There are a couple vendors that require this to get the licenses. The only reason I agree to this is that like some have said,it's ok to be Justin Beaver(I know its Bieber) every once in a while. Avast required it also but most of these require you to register an account even for free versions.Some flag disposable/Temp. emails but I think we all know you can have multiple gmail/yahoo accounts.I have some that I just use for software registrations. Total uninstall was either that way or no way.I am just bringing the giveaway if it is a problem and you don't feel comfortable giving your alias or email then you dont't have to enter.Sometimes these are the vendor requirements.

So are you saying an alias is okay?

This requirement is no different than if you had to register for a free software or a free trial.If you win you send me the information and I pass it along to Gavrila Martau,the owner who sends you the key.I am sure since he is a smaller vendor he has concerns for where his licenses that he gives away are going.
The name is really an issue but he is going to provide you a key via email.So I would make sure you use a valid email
Is it OK ? It is your right to protect your privacy.
Best advice I can give is that if your not comfortable doing something,don't do it.

I have no concern over my email or country. Would my first name work?
