Online Surveys - Scam or what?

[LoDivaLoca]

Hi there....(this is my first venture from Resorts or Budget Board!) I was looking online and see that SurveyScout is a well-recommended survey service. You pay $35 & they (basically) list 400+ companies that pay cash/prizes for your opinion. Does anyone have any actual experience with SurveyScout or any of these types of companies. I belong to some of the free ones already & basically just get entered in 'prize pool' when I'm done. I wanted to know if anyone actually KNOWS anything about this (of course, I have my own spectulations....)

Thanks!

I've never heard of them but I would venture to guess it's a scam. I'm always leary when they ask for $$.

Probably a scam...but check with the pro's on the Rewards Board they are a wealth of information!
(Personally I have NEVER paid to take surveys!)

I vote SCAM. Stay away and never give them information about you or your family.

I have been doing surveys for over 4 years, and have never paid anyone.

They have paid me with checks, paypal, Amazon certs, supercertificates, and products.

Never ever ever pay.

You shouldn't have to pay to take surveys. I take surveys online and they pay me! Don't pay anything! It's a SCAM!

I am a member of several FREE survey sites and have been rewarded with cash and gift certificates.
