<h1>Legitimate online paid surveys or scammed online paid surveys?</h1> <p align=right>by John Tan</p> <div align=justify>Are you looking for legitimate online paid surveys? There are many online paid surveys in the market. Some are scams while others are legitimate. How do you distinguish between the two? Below are some recommended methods that you can use: 1. Contact the company. This is the most important action to take. E-mail them a question and wait for a reply. A company that offers legitimate online paid surveys will give good support by replying within 1-2 days. Don't stop here. You still need to analyze the way that they answer you. Make sure that you understand what they are talking about. A legitimate company will give a concise but detailed answer. 2. Check the content of the website. A legitimate online paid survey company would confess to you that the surveys will not give you immediate riches overnight. However, they can at least help you make some extra cash outside your main job. This is in stark contrast to scammed paid survey company that lie outright to you that you can quit your normal job, stay at home and make some easy and fast cash with minimal effort when you sign up for their program. 3. Check the comprehensiveness of the website. The more relevant information that you can find, the higher probability that the program is legitimate. For instance, a legitimate company will describe to you in full details the various methods of you getting paid: take online surveys, participate in focus group, be a mystery shopper or even get paid to drive. Some scammed survey companies will fill up their website with useless information unrelated to paid surveys at all. Their intention is make sure that their site does not appear empty. 4. Check that the company has a forum or a frequently updated blog to communicate with the members. A good legitimate online survey company will value its members and help each individual succeed by answering their questions posted in the forum or blog. 5. Go to Google and type "xxxxx scam". The "xxxx" refers to the name of the company. For example, if the company is known as "Red Survey", you can type in "Red Survey scam". A legitimate survey company should have little or irrelevant search result showing up. From my experience, I find it very tedious to check each survey company individually and see if it is legitimate or not. It is better to pay some money to join a legitimate online survey program that does all the hard work for you. So the question now is: How do you find a legitimate online paid survey program that gives you a list of legitimate online paid survey companies? The answer is exactly the same as the above, except that we are applying the methods to a survey program and not a survey company: 1. Contact the staff of the survey program. 2. Check the content of the website. 3. Check the comprehensiveness of the website. 4. Check that the program has a forum or a blog.
