How To Identify And Avoid Paid Survey Scams - With so many paid survey scams those days, and so many
websites promoting those scams, often it is difficult to determine which is real
and which is the ugly, especially for survey newcomers. However, there are ways
you can identify them and avoid them:


1. Please remember: Never pay anyone to do paid surveys and
get paid. Legitimate paid survey sites are always FREE to join and cost
absolutely Nothing to take surveys and get paid. If anyone asks you to pay or
provide credit card information, walk away!


2. The most common scam sites work like this: They claim they are
paid survey sites and ask you to sign up and provide your personal information.
They then turn around sell your information. Often those sites are overly
simplified, no company information etc, all they ask is your name and email
address, and you won't know what's going on until you register. If you see a
site like this, walk away.



3. If you come cross a site that you are not sure if it is legitimate or not,
please be sure to check their privacy policy. If you are not happy with their
policy or they don't have a privacy policy, stay away. A legitimate company's
privacy policy should state something like "We do NOT reveal or sell your
personal information to any third parties..." in the "How do we use information
collected" section.



4. Please be aware the difference between paid surveys sites and paid sign up
offer sites. The later sometimes say they are survey sites, in fact they are
not. They are the sites you get paid for signing up free or trial offers, and
sometimes you need to pay upfront a small fee and provide credit card
information to sign up non-free trials or offers.



5. Stay away from the websites promoting known scam "survey" sites - usually
those sites promise you make thousands of dollars doing paid surveys, and lot of
them claim that they have a free or paid list of 300+ or 400+ paid survey sites
(in fact there are not hundreds survey sites that pay! I signed up over 200
sites, but over the course of almost 3 years, only around 70 sites that have
paid me or at least send me a survey!)- They are just promoting anything they
can find for commission no matter what, and they can NOT be trusted.



6. Trust your instinct - Sometimes you just have a gut feeling about a scam site
just by its look and feel. In this case, you are probably right, trust yourself
and walk away.



7. You can always do your research for a certain survey site. Fox example, type
"A survey site" in Google, you might find "A survey site is a scam!" listed
among the top search results!



8. Finally, remember NEVER provide sensitive personal information to anyone,
never give out your social security number, driver's license numbers, credit
card, bank account information to anyone. I have never has a survey site
requires me to provide these information to get paid.
