Ah, I love the spammers!\n\nNo thanks.  My current job pays me quite lucratively.  I don't need to do online surveys.

first...online surveys are fraud, especially when they ask you for money.  Beware of this type of job advertisments, like "secret shoppers, we'll pay you to shop..."  Don't be fool by those companies out there trying to take advantage of the unemployed and ignorant.

I've joined several online survey sites that are free, but you will not get an income out of them. In the past 2 years, I have gotten about $120 out of one, a few movies out of another one, and a few other movies from another one. So as good as they make it sound, it's just a cute hobby with cool little incentives, not really a job that can provide you with a good income to support yourself or your family. If you are planning on trying one of those fee to begin surveys, make sure you call them and tell them to refund you if nothing happens. I had to do that three times already, so I gave up on those.

Most of the survey companies pay by check. But if you get accepted into their panel, check if they're willing to pay by Paypal\n\nThe rule, as always, is to stay away from those that ask you to pay before you can get these surveys. \n\nLegitimate market survey companies such as Pinecone Research recruit members based on demographic characteristics -- e.g. mothers of babies 0-12 years old -- and will send surveys of products and services targeting this demographic group. Pinecone Research, however, pays only $5 per survey -- you're definitely not going to be rich with that. They can give you anywhere from 1-5 at most surveys in a month. \n\nOther companies simply ask you to answer as many research as possible, and you don't earn anything just the chance to win at a raffle (which I find lame).\n\nThe article "Earning Money from Surveys" provide a short list of legitimate market research firms and contains explanations of what to look for when joining surveys (and weeding out the fraudulent ones)\nhttp://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol121/onlinesurvey.htm \n\nPinecone Research http://www.pineconeresearch.com\nGreenField Online http://www.greenfieldonline.com \nHarris Poll Online http://www.harrispollonline.com  \nBuzzBack http://www.buzzback.com  \nSurveySite http://www.surveysite.com \nSurveySavvy http://www.surveysavvy.com\nSurvey Spot http://www.surveyspot.com/\nhttp://www.internetpaidsurveys.com/

I tried them and it costs me $39.00 to get sent surveys. I haven't received any yet. That was 6 months ago. Some give you points. You have to do a thousand surveys to get a plastic comb. Maybe there is some that work, but I never seen any that you could make much money at.

Some surveys generally will offer prizes or even money if you participate. But others may be out for a false scam and spam your email inbox.

Don't do it, its garbage. I took some of these surveys and it says that you have to actually sign up for some of the products of the companies that you are taking the survey for. This is just a total waste of time and you make absolutely NO PROFIT!

The only legitimate one that I know of is Harris Poll. They have been around since before there even was an internet. They will send you one or two surveys a month via e-mail and you will earn points towards prizes which include giftcards. You wont get rich but they do deliever the prizes.\nhttp://www.harrispollonline.com/main.asp

I have been doing pineconeresearch.com for years. every month they said me two surveys and each I get paid five dollars. there are many free surveys to join but please do not do greenfieldonline.com they cheated me and my son and many others. don't join the websites for surveys that you have to send money. all they do is send you websites that are the same that you can use on the free sites. some surveys you add points and you get enough points you either can get cash or a gift. it is alot of fun

Yes there are a FEW trust worthy companies still out there that do myster shopping and surveys. 2 of the the companies that I deal with and have been dealing with for years are.\n\n1. www.secretshop.net they are a free secret shopping company and do pay. You will be paid for your time and reimbursed for your expenses. They pay you the following month is the only drawback. but they have always paid me.\n\n2. www.pineconeresearch.com they are a survey company. I dont know if they are accepting new apps now or not but check in and email them. They pay $5 per survey via check to you. I usually get the email for the survey and check in the mail the same day! They actually pay upfront. If you get to test a product you can get a total of $10-$15 for the full test!!!! \n\nAs I said I have been with both of these companies for over 3 years and they have always paid! But never sign up for any company that requires you to pay a fee!! You are doing them a service, they shoud pay you!

If you have to pay money to get a Job/Loan/to take surveys, it's probably a scam. 98.5%** of All WORK FROM HOME ad's on the Net are scams.
