Is the taking surveys on-line thing a scam or do people really make some OK money with it???

Question

I see it all the time and I just have to throw it out there and ask. I think it is a scam /BS thing, but I just do not know for sure.

Any input on this would be great,

Thanks in advance!!!

Answer 1

Some sites ARE scams (the ones that ask you to pay before you take surveys are 100% fake).

I don't think it is a scam b/c you get some money, millions of people use the surveys for extra cash. And some even do it for a living.

Everybody has their own opinion :)

Answer 2

Have them each checked out by a review site before signing up for them and wasting your time/money.  Check out www.homebusinessscamdetector.org  .  They'll research them for free.

Answer 3

Depends on what you mean by OK money.  If you are talking about a $25 gift card every couple months then yes, there are some that do.  Otherwise, the only way you'll get paid is if it's a site where you pay a fee to "join" and you suck in others as referrals so you get part of their signup fee, or if you buy a bunch of items  related to the "survey" that'll end up costing you more than you "earn"

Answer 4

Some online surveys are scam and some are not. The link bellow explains how to recognize pad surveys scam. They usually want money upfront- registration fee or something else. Never pay to do a survey. This is a rule of thumb.

Answer 5

there are legit sites, and then there are scams. some legit sites include surveysavvy and surveyspot... they pay via check.

Answer 6

I've done surveys for some time now and created a site that has everything I know about free online surveys. It has videos tutorial, legit survey sites that have paid me along with proof of payment, and contact info if you want more guidance or have questions.
