are paid surveys online a bunch of crap or are they legit?

Answer 1

Ummm...Im assuming that MOST of them are SCAMS, but there are some that are actually really good, like the one that i do, from Treasure Troops. This site’s pretty legit, considering the fact that i’ve already cashed their checks. lol.. i dont know how much more "legit" you want. But if this is not enough, the sites got a forum where they have pictures of the checks. soo, you can go look at that. But, anyways, its your choise.

Answer 2

Depends on which site you get I think. There are certainly scams out there, but there are also a lot of legit sites.

I've listed sites I've been paid for taking surveys through here:

I also have a section on my website about avoiding scams:

Answer 3

They aren't legit if they ask you to pay! Check out http://freewebs.com/surveyopportunities for some free to join legit survey sites.

Answer 4

It depends on what you like doing with your valuable time. They pay very little but at least some of them are legit. Good Luck! Jennifer

it's a VERY VERY helpful forum where people discuss EVERY which way to make money online...legally anyway. There's a lot about mystery shopping, paid to read email, surveys, test products,etc...There's a thread where everyone leaves feedback and discusses the different paying sites they're members of. It helps when you see hundreds of people saying positive things about a site, especially when you're questioning it's...legit...ness(?)lol. i've found a couple of extra survey/trial sites that i've joined on there, and have gotten paid from them. If i were to recommend the best ones though, it'd DEFINITELY be
1.) Pinecone Research-after you look into making money online more, you'll see this one is one of the most sought after sites to join. It's the best, IMO. the ONLY catch it, you can't just sign up from their site...you have to find the elusive banner to join. (i googled it and found it pretty easily) but if you're accepted (and it's 100%free) you'll get your first survey soon and they pay $5.00 //survey you do...they pay after each one (they send them to you, you can't just do as many as you want :-( but you WILL get either a check or they pay via paypal as well (what i do) in less than 3 days after completely the survey. i dont think you'll ever hear anything bad or negative about this site (except that some people don't get accepted, sometimes they're looking for certain people)..but def.search for that one. you'll def. want to join a few other sites along with this one, since they decide how many surveys you get each month (it's just the easiest and fastest, so why not do it)
the next site i'd recommend it the first paying survey/trial site i joined (and worked)...i earn the most money on this one (probably because i'm a bit biased since it was my first one that i joined and got paid from)
http://www.treasuretrooper.com/228500
first off, make up a couple extra emails to use strictly for junkmail (i've never even checked the ones i made and use on there) i say a couple, because several of the surveys you take are from the same company so if you use different emails it'll approve faster (and i clear my cookies after each survey, and it helps more approve)
then all you do if enter your info and answer a bunch of those yes/no to free offers (usually youdont even have to go that far with it, just enter your info...or click NO or pass to everything)
I've been a member since February 14th this year, and i've made 168.00 so far (i've already gotten my first check) and that's just from doing free offers. if you refer friends/family you get 20% of what they earn and 5% of what THEIR referrals earn. great site, highly recommended. oh, they also have a forum there, with a proof of payment thread.
and another site i'm a member of and have gotten paid a bit from is
http://www.cash crate.com/index.php?ref=155478 (note:dont' put the "space" between "cash" and "crate".i couldnt post hte link i HAVE recieved my first check from them for $60.00, i don't get on there as much as treasure trooper (if idid i would obviously make more money)they also have a referal system %20 1st level referrals and %10 second level...after so many referrals you go up levels...%30 1st level and %20 second.
and last but not least is the site i spend the least time on (and i have gotten paid from them) but i've gotten paid the least (since i dont get on there much)
http://www.inboxdollars.com/?r=tiffany_a00
i've gotten paid $40 from them. same deal as the others, a little different withthe referal system though, you get $1 for every referal and i think it's $2 for every offer they complete. not sure on that part though, i know i've gotten paid though, lol. well, hope you enjoy venturing into the world of working online. it's addicting, i'm currently working on some new sites and building up my balance and seeing if they pay.

(NOTE: I haven't invested ONE penny in any of this)
i make almost $300 extra a month between all of those)
