I've come across an adregarding being paid for answering surveys on line are they true?

Question

My cousin is interested to register at the monstesurvey.com to make extra money.

Answer 1

I don't have experience with that particular survey site, and I couldn't follow the link to check it out (did you mis-type the URL?)...but here are some good places to run it through and see what you find out about it:

Here are two other sites which are very helpful
http://www.surveypolice.com/
(rates surveys)
http://ripoffreport.com/
(scam reporting site)

There are some real, paying survey sites out there. Expect $0.50 to $5 per survey normally, and occassionally $1-20. You rarely will get more than that...so be wary of sites that say they pay $75 per survey or anything like that. I've listed some of the sites I have taken surveys through and actually been paid (or received other rewards like gift cards or CD'S) on the following site:

http://www.windhavenweb.com/surveys

I list how they pay you, what I like and dislike about them, whether they have an affiliate or referral program, etc. (And yes, if I say they have an affiliate program, I'm part of it, and make a commission when someone signs up through that link...I like to be up front about that).

As you're searching, here are some tips to avoid scams. Don't sign up for any survey site which asks you to pay to access the surveys. Also watch for language like "get paid for taking surveys AND SIGNING UP FOR OFFERS" if you don't want to have to sign up for stuff with other companies to get paid.

Always carefully read their terms of service and privacy policy. If in their privacy policy they say they only use aggregated info, this is GOOD SIGN they are legit. Aggregated info information that is grouped together so it can't be connected with anyones personal identification like name, e-mail, phone or address. That's what survey sites SHOULD collect. Avoid sites that say they give, rent, or sell any personal information (info that is not aggregated) to third parties (unless you really don't mind getting junk mail, telemarketing calls, and spam).

Also, never sign up for a survey through an unsolicited e-mail--since these might not even be from the site they claim to be, but could be a phishing scheme to get your information and mis-use it.

Answer 3

Well, when your cousin registers, what kind of information is she going to give them? Name, address, telephone number, social security number, name of bank, credit card numbers, etc. Why do you suppose they need that personal information? She's also going to have to agree to buy magazines, subscribe to newsletters and so forth. She may or may not be paid, but she will no doubt be the victim of identify theft. Online surveys are a scam, and you should warn your cousin of that.

Answer 4

Most of the surveys on these types of sites enter you into drawings for cash. Very few actually pay all participants of the survey. When they do it is only a buck or two.Careful which ones you sign up for because they will just send you tons of spam.

Answer 5

somebody as quickly as asked "i'm seeking to touch the SAPS, especially Paddock Police Station?". purely 2 human beings responded. on a similar time as the different mentioned there grow to be no such police station in South Africa I gave the guy the splendid answer with touch info and so on. The asker did no longer choose terrific answer (for regardless of reason). The question went for balloting, i did no longer vote for myself (which i could desire to). the different man or woman grow to be voted as terrific answer. That confirmed the two malice or total lack of information. i won't be able to forget such stupidity!!!!!!!!

Answer 6

I would watch out because some of those kinds of websites are fake and scam you out of money- some even try to steal you ID, and then some of them ask for you to pay money to 'sponser' all in all- I would stay away form them. Nothings in life is free.
