online paid survey sites...Scam or not?

[Mightybao]

sites like www.ahwa.org claim that you can work from home and make thousands of bucks per month just filling out surveys. They also throw in a free vacation when you register. I checked them out at the better business bureau and there haven't been any complaints filed against them. Has anyone tried them out? Are they a scam?

you should start a poll and then offer to pay people for their responses

from the site, looks like they want an "upfront fee" of $34.95. that says scam to me.

It'll work. You just have to find 1k hours per week and spend it doing the paperwork. If you can't spare that many hours per week, you're not gettin paid.

I have no doubt it's a scam. There are still a couple survey sites that are legitimate. I've probably made 15 dollars in the last year with GoZing but nothing signifigant.

If they want a upfront fee, then probably yes.

I've been paid for online survey's before, UPenn I think sent me two $5bills in an envelope for one online survey. lol, it confused the crap out of me since I wasn't expecting to actually get the money.
