It's def legal.  The store that you are sent to subscribes to the mystery shopping service.  It's a tool they use to make sure that their employees are doing the right things.  That's why they make you write a paragraph of detailed experiences or do a survey.  It is kind of wierd, but for everything you do or purchase you are reimbursed for.  If you want to make sure the company is legit, I'd visit the Better Business Bureau's website.

Absolutely not!\n\nAsk for business references that can be verified, and check them.

it is a scam.\nDon't touch that with a ten foot pole.\nWhen I get those things I e-mail them back.\nAnd I call them every nasty name I can think of or make up.

As a rough rule of thumb, if a company wants to charge you for the privilege of registering / working for them, they are not legitimate!\n\nIf I was you I would avoid them, and save yourself the $29.98!

Nope not legit, they are just another stupid scam to get your money, you pay for something that is supposedly GREAT and you end up with a bag of rocks or something, DONT BID

This is for US Businesses only:\n\n1. You can check their business credit report at Dun and Bradstreet, or a cheaper alternative is Experian Business\n\n2. For copyrights, check the federal database http://www.copyright.gov/records/ \n\nThe Better Business Bureau has information only on its members; and being a non-member does not necessarily indicate that a business is not legit.\n\nIf it is a company from another country, you may want to check the trade section of their embassy to find out where you can get information about a business.

I would assume so. If it was from a unknown site, then I wouldn't trust it, but it is Yahoo! offering it, so I would trust them.

This company does not exist.It is a scam. Do not respond to them. Do not send them any personal details or cash. Enter the "Sarl Atoll" into your search engine. I was lucky and checked first - others did not.\n\n18/05/06: I have been checking this company all week. It is strange that now suddenly there is a website for this company - claiming that they promote technology for websites for companies. I would still remain very cautious. The address on this site is identical to the scam email I received.

No, but it's a good site.  They could be sued, that's plagurism.

If you have to ask, you needn't bother.\n\nFind their coded cryptic ad in the classifieds. It could be anything. Wholesale rose bushes, pedigree dogs, crockery seconds, for example. They do like their crosswords.\n\nYou're looking for obscure references that lead to publicly available documents with hidden information. You have to prove you can track them down before they'll even consider you.

check with the better business bureau to see if any complaints have been launched. \n\nDon't give money, unless you are sure they are legit. \n\nask to see references from other "clients".\n\nSee their location, and ask for background information of the company.\n\ngood luck.

They don't appear to be a reputable company in any regard:\n\nPRISM CASINO - Another site I promoted years that was pulled due to poor customer service. They are supposed to be under new direction now, and I was contacted by one of their affiliate managers last year. Since that time, he left and was replaced by a well respected manager from the Casino Coins Group (who also tried to salvage the Grand Banks Group) to deal with their affiliates. She has also now left at this point. I don't know what's going on down there now... not that any of us should care.

I only wish I knew of one.    Seems like the only way you can ever find out is to sign up with one,  but you have to  hand over a bunch of  money first, and then  it's too late  because  you  aren't  gonna  get  any  refund  LOL>      I  got   tempted to investigate  one I got  an e-mail about,  asking for people  with good writing skills, to help  with the composition of those  online  sales pitches  that  lure others  to buy some kind of book, or sign up  for a subscription to a course for something.   You  aren't  having to  sell anything yourself, or  get caught up  in  the expense of  making phone calls, or packing and shipping merchandise  etc.etc.   Evidently  you just sit there,  and  tap  tap tap away, composing something that may attract people to  sign up for somebody  else's product,  and  that "somebody" pays  you for your services based on how  successful  your presentation  has been in  producing  sales results.   Only problem  there is that  while YOU  can't be  legally held  accountable for anything  that isn't exactly copacetic, you  are still  morally part  of the scam  if it happens to be one  ---  and  I think you also have to buy their course that instructs you how to  design  and type up your  presentation pitch on their behalf.   \n                         Only  thing I can  think of as a  way to find out about a  truly 100%  genuine one would be through the Better Business Bureau,  who, perhaps, could either help you themselves, or  direct you to somebody who could.

No.  Its a scam that has been circulating since last October at least. L & N is just one of the company names that is used.  A few of the others are:\n-Steffan Harry and Son Fabrics and Texile Decoy House\n-Wahum Fabrics and Textile\n-Labo Investments Fabrics & Textiles\n-Sino Steel Company Limited\n-Maxwell Holmes Textiles\n\nIf you do a google search on part of a sentence in the letter (for instance "We need someone to work for the company") you will get 100s of results.

When I googled american survey alliance I got a blog of a guy who eluded to it being a scam. Evidently he didn't find it to be legitimate.\nI could find no web site for the company. No information of any kind. Where did you hear about it?\nHope this helps
