Which Paid Online Surveys Sites Are a Scam

When you first start the search for earning money online you will most likely come across the popular method of taking paid surveys. There are many legitimate paid survey companies online, but there are also others that you should avoid. I am here to discuss the different types of paid survey sites and how you should react to each kind.

The old established paid survey website with a good reputation is one that you should join. These websites are usually the ones with a good design and that have several pages for you to look at before joining (ex: faq, about us, privacy policy) In order to identify this website you should look around their website and see when they were started and read a little about them. Also you should google "(paid survey site name) review" in order to find out how their members feel about their experience with them. These website are the ones that pay you to take surveys.

The website that tries to get you to pay is one you should avoid. Now common sense would tell me that most people would realize this and not pay to take survey, but for some reason these websites are still in business and new ones keep springing up. These websites will usually try to entice you into joining with a well written and convincing sales letter. The common misconception about these websites is that they are the ones that actually pay you to take the surveys, while in fact these websites actually just act as middle men, who ask for money in order to give you the names of real paid survey sites that you could find on your own for free.

There is another type of website that is also a middle man. These website usually are one page long and ask for your email address in order to get access to paid surveys. These websites also do not actually pay you to take surveys. You should be careful of these because after you give them your email address they may spam you or even give it to spammers.
