Dollars for Taking Surveys? Caveat Emptor!

Just a quick note. I'm always goofing around looking at job announcements online, and many listings I produce with my searches include web sites where you are offered lists of sites from which you can get paid for taking surveys.

These portal sites usually want a fee of 25 to 35 bucks. You really don't need to pay any money for these lists. Simply type the words "online survey scams" into a Google Search field and read some of the results and you'll find links to sites where you don't pay to participate.

Even with access to these sites, don't expect to make much money unless you really work hard at it, possible as much as more than full time.

I hope this friendly piece of advice will save you some trouble and expense.

You are very right. But There are some real survey payouts such as greenfield research, AMerican consumer panel, and theres another one I can't remember. I got a $10 GC for Amazon and a 4 .00 check...it was cool but i have been doing those damn things for a month now. What you need to do is sign up with say greenfield.com and let them send you surveys depending on the criteria and interests you post on a profile. hope that gives some encouragement...but you really dont have to pay the 30 bucks...i did and I'm angry...lol
