I don't think it's legitimate.\nI did the questionnaire. No where does it ask how tall I am, what I weight, my body fat percentage or any "real" information that an actual study would need.  (I did try to enroll in a real study of weight loss at a hospital so I'm familiar with how it works.)\nI wrote down the confirmation number and took the survey again. I used all different answers. The confirmation number was the same.  To me, that's bogus.\nI did a quick search on "dietstudy.com and scam" and found out that when you call they ask for $300 upfront to "enroll" in the study.  No legitimate scientific study asks for money.

What do you want to check  If you are checking security look at the address should start https. make sure there is an "S" there, and a padlock at the bottom. If you want to check it is not a phishing site Get Zone Alarm.

This question is an advertisement, and the web sites are a scam.

probably not, don't trust anything on the internet.  If you want something real go to a real store that has proof of manufaturing that kind of thing.

I think you mean "legitimate" instead of "valid." There is no central web site that tracks the legitimacy of a web site. If it looks even slightly fishy, don't give them your email unless you want a lot of spam. If you still want to try it, quickly create a new Yahoo account (free) and give them that email address - you don't have to bother even using the address again.

Looks dodgy, don't use it.\n\nIt's a spam site; they'll send you loads and loads of adverts via email, and supposedly pay you to read them. It won't happen, don't waste your time.

No. I have looked. Every at hoime internet job wants you to pay a registration fee or something, or at least give them credit card details. Anyone that asks for all that isn't genuine. I honestly don't believe that there is a genuine one.

Sounds like a scam, I would download the Ebay Toolbar to verify the authenticiy of the email. Also, you need to contact Safeharbor to validate the sellers statements.

When you visit a site, check for their security certificates. Some sites use security certificates from proven and trustee companies such as VeriSign. Usually these sites put the logo of VeriSign and the bottom of the site, where you can click and it will redirect you to a page at the VeriSign official website and give you detailed information about the sites security level.\n\nThese sites are pretty much safe, as for the others, all you need to do is watch yourself.

NO. NO. NO.\nThere's NO one of it. Believe me.\nYou will recieve many SCAMMING e-mail answering your question. You will lose your money much more than any information you will get. Internet is simply 99.99% SCAM.\nIf there is, many millions people just like you will go there and it's already well known by now. But you're still looking for it just like the other. It means: NO, THERE IS NO SITE LIKE THAT... EVER. BOTH GOVERNMENT OR PRIVATE.\nNever believe it.\n\nLook at this people answering you. They invite you to some special site or e-mail in secret. Why just don't answer here and help many people like you?\nIt's going to scam you. BEWARE !\n\nI've warned you for your good. Good luck anyway.
