Should i trust "legitimate" survey sites?

Question

the ones that pay

Answer 1

Pinecone research is the ONLY one I have ever got my $5/survey from... But you don't get that $5 for all the surveys.

In addition, they don't send them very often.

I do AC Neilsen Homescan and that doesn't pay but you earn points to buy gifts out of a catalog. It works out nicely and it is legit.

I've tried a few other random ones.... with no luck on payment.

Answer 2

cash crate is the only one I've heard of that actually pays without you having to really buy anything if you don't want. It's different, not all surveys though
