There are many scams out there.\nBut there are also good survey sites which you can join free and earn money. But the earnings are not very good- good for some pocket money.\nDo your research befor joining.\nJust read the terms at each site before joining.\nSome of the best sites are surveysavvy, NFO survey, ACOP, globaltestmarket, Greenfield, Ciao, NPD, Ipsos, surveys.com, opinion outpost, surveydirect,lightspeed, your2cents, Epoll.\n\nAnd remember, never pay for getting surveys!

It's a scam.  Generally, survey companies pay very little to begin with.  They give you lists of companies that may or may not ask you to participate in surveys. All they do is take your money and run.

Some pay and some are phishing scams\n\nI recently got $30 in Amazon Gift Certs by taking some online surveys

I have participated in online surveys and got paid -- but I've never had a company pay through Paypal, always checks. As such it may be difficult to find paid surveys for your location and payment preference.\n\nThe rule, as always, is to stay away from those that ask you to pay before you can get these surveys. \n\nLegitimate market survey companies such as Pinecone Research recruit members based on demographic characteristics -- e.g. mothers of babies 0-12 years old -- and will send surveys of products and services targeting this demographic group. Pinecone Research, however, pays only $5 per survey -- you're definitely not going to be rich with that. They can give you anywhere from 1-5 at most surveys in a month. \n\nOther companies simply ask you to answer as many research as possible, and you don't earn anything just the chance to win at a raffle (which I find lame).\n\nThe article "Earning Money from Surveys" provide a short list of legitimate market research firms and contains explanations of what to look for when joining surveys (and weeding out the fraudulent ones)\nhttp://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol121/onlinesurvey.htm \n\nPinecone Research http://www.pineconeresearch.com\nGreenField Online http://www.greenfieldonline.com \nHarris Poll Online http://www.harrispollonline.com  \nBuzzBack http://www.buzzback.com  \nSurveySite http://www.surveysite.com \nSurveySavvy http://www.surveysavvy.com\nSurvey Spot http://www.surveyspot.com/\nhttp://www.internetpaidsurveys.com/

It is legitimate business. I do alot of paid surveys, and I do actually get paid. But, you don't always make $75.00 a survey, in fact, it's usually small amounts like anywhere between $2 to $30.00. The biggest check I ever recieved was for $50.00.

Yes, you can earn a few dollars with surveys but it is definitely not something that you can live on.\n\nThe rule, as always, is to stay away from those that ask you to pay before you can get these surveys. \n\nLegitimate market survey companies such as Pinecone Research recruit members based on demographic characteristics -- e.g. mothers of babies 0-12 years old -- and will send surveys of products and services targeting this demographic group. Pinecone Research, however, pays only $5 per survey -- you're definitely not going to be rich with that. They can give you anywhere from 1-5 at most surveys in a month.  With Pinecone, I think I earned about $500 for about 4 years -- not something you can live on.\n\nOther companies simply ask you to answer as many research as possible, and you don't earn anything just the chance to win at a raffle (which I find lame).\n\nThe article "Earning Money from Surveys" provide a short list of legitimate market research firms and contains explanations of what to look for when joining surveys (and weeding out the fraudulent ones)\nhttp://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol121/onlinesurvey.htm \n\nPinecone Research http://www.pineconeresearch.com\nGreenField Online http://www.greenfieldonline.com \nHarris Poll Online http://www.harrispollonline.com  \nBuzzBack http://www.buzzback.com  \nSurveySite http://www.surveysite.com \nSurveySavvy http://www.surveysavvy.com\nSurvey Spot http://www.surveyspot.com/\nhttp://www.internetpaidsurveys.com/

Yes I do -- I am currently making about $450 monthly from the internet with no monetary investment, and only a little of my time.\n\nA lot of Autosurf for cash sites have recently gone bust due to the SEC clamp down. Last year I made over $15,000 just from autosurfing, but now I am only making about $70 a month autosurfing, so these are not so hot now.\n\nHowever, most of my income is generated by displaying GOOGLE ADS on my websites about $380 monthly. Many claim to make much more than this, and I also believe it is possible to earn $1000's and more monthly with good website CONTENT optimized for Search Engines (SEO).  A web-site that delivers good content will be picked up by the search engines and give a very high ranking - even to the first page! I have not spent the time and effort yet to do this, that is why I am not yet making the $1000's.\n\nAnother way to generate income is to offer a service or sell things,  for example over eBay. And this way you may also consider advertising your website offers.\n\nAnd still another way is to join an afilliate program, for example clickbank.com, and sell other peoples stuff for a huge commissions. I do this and generate on average about $100 a month.\n\nIt takes a lot of effort and sometimes even advertising money to generate any sort of income from the internet, and there are a lot of scams out there to be avoided. TIP - don't spend any money on any venture without good research,  especially with HYIP's and Gambling sites.\n\nVisit my website for all the info to get started:\n\nhttp://www.freewebs.com/paidtosurf/\n\n(The Google AdSense(tm) information is near the top of the page.)\n\n\nHope this helps.\nAll the Best,\nAri

There are consumer research companies that will pay you a little to take their surveys online.  I've read that if you spend 3 to 5 hours a day taking surveys from numerous companies, you can make a decent amount of money.  Yahoo has a consumer research study group, but there's also SurveySavvy, ISay, GoZing, SurveySpot, Lightspeed, Synovate......  \n\nI already work 40 hours a week so I don't have time to put in those hours, nevertheless,  in the last 5 months I have received a few bucks, a few coupons, a few points (that can someday be turned into cash), and something like $60 in Amazon.com gift certificates.\n\nYou want to set up a new seperate e-mail account because you'll get a lot of spam.  They usually recommend that you turn your spam-filter off so that it doesn't filter out your survey invitations.

I have participated in several paid surveys, but they always pay by check and not Amazon gift certificates\n\nThe rule, as always, is to stay away from those that ask you to pay before you can get these surveys. \n\nLegitimate market survey companies such as Pinecone Research recruit members based on demographic characteristics -- e.g. mothers of babies 0-12 years old -- and will send surveys of products and services targeting this demographic group.

I agree with the previous answer, that it is possible to get paid for completing a survey.  \n\nBut I think you are probably referring to ads in the classified that promise you that you can get paid taking surveys or doing data entry from home (or stuffing envelopes, which is another common one). \n\nThe bottom line is that many of these have been known to be fraudulent.  Often they are trying to get YOU to buy into whatever scheme there is.  If you are asked to pay money, that should be your first clue.\n\nYou may be able to get paid for taking *A* survey, but can you make a living from it?  I doubt it.\n\n\nTo research, look at this:  http://www.findpaidsurveys.org/?OVRAW=get%20paid%20to%20take%20surveys&OVKEY=get%20paid%20to%20take%20survey&OVMTC=standard .  It's a site that tries to warn you about the illegit paid survey sites.  Then they go and try to sell you something!  Doesn't that sound even fishier?  They gain credibility by WARNING of fraud.  Pretty sneaky!  (I can't comment on whether the offers on this site is legit or not.  I'm just commenting to be aware of wasting your money, and just because someone warns you of fraud, it does not make them legit!)\n\nNow read:  http://jobsearchtech.about.com/od/jobs/a/paid_surveys_2.htm\n\nAnd do a search for "paid surveys scam", like http://www.google.com/search?hs=ryS&hl=en&lr=&safe=off&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-US%3Aofficial&q=paid+surveys+scam&btnG=Search\n\nScams are rampant in this area!  Don't waste your money - even $30.  If companies are desperate to get you to take a survey, I'm sure you can find them on the web WITHOUT paying a middle man $30.

I know that there are companies that give surveys and pay you up to $40 for two hours.  Once, I had a survey company call me, and I reported in at a local hotel to answer questions for 1 hour and received $40 for it.  I would NEVER get involved with anything that required a fee (any fee) to get in their program.  Most if not all of those programs are scams.

Yes there are. I know someone who actually makes a nice living answering online surveys. She actually gets paid to answer them. I can't tell you where to sign up, cause she won't tell me. I have watched her filling them out and then a window comes and tells her what that survey pays. I watched her do  5 surveys in about an hour and a half. Two paid $100 ea. and two paid $75 ea. and one paid $45. She was mad about the low paying one. After these five she quit for a couple of days. Just as the other answer, be careful when you check them out. My friend says the legit ones will not ask for any money from you.\n\nThe company she does this for had her fill out an application and then did a background check. When they decided she was legit they sent her an email.\n\nAs she says if they want money from you, they're crooks.\n\nGood luck.
