Online surveys

[Dave M]

I've seen a lot of those work at home, online survey ads recently. Do they really work? My aunt told me that she was able to make some money filling survey forms, so it seems that some do pay. Still, I dunno, it feels kinda wrong being paid for doing a survey...

There are some that do pay, yes. I wouldn't call it a job, though, and income is never really stable. You can do paid surveys if all you want is some quick cash, but it's better to look into alternative means of earning online.

I believe most of such programs are just Spam! They ask for few dollars as an initial payment and when we have paid, there is no reply from them. We shall be more cautious while participating any of such programs.

Be careful about some of those online survey programs! You know how some of those surveys ask you to pull up a credit report? Well, while you can pull up your credit report for free online, many people don't realize that doing so will automatically enroll you in some kind of membership where you're charged a monthly fee. If you don't cancel that membership, you'd simply be paying back whatever money you might have earned doing the survey.

I don't really trust those online surveys. They're too fishy. Even if it pays, it's still an unreliable way to earn money. Much better to find an actual job online (eg. freelance, web design, etc.) than to do a survey. At least, that's my opinion. ;)
