Does taking online surveys work for getting cash?

If it does, then which one's work?

Does taking online surveys work for getting cash?
Im assuming that most sites are SCAMS, but there are some that are legit, like the one i use. Its from a site called Treausre TRoops. This site’s pretty legit, considering the fact that i’ve already cashed their checks. You can go on their forum if you want more information. OR you can go to their chatroom.





HINT: MAKE A SEPARATE EMAIL ACCOUNT JUST FOR DOING OFFERS/SURVEYS. (this is to avoid getting spam in your "real" email account)

not worth the hassle.
Reply:You can make a little cash--usually $1-5 per survey, occassionally a little more. I usually make about $20 per month.





I've listed most of the sites I have taken surveys through and actually been paid (or received other rewards like gift cards or CD'S) on the following webpage:





http://www.windhavenweb.com/surveys





I list how they pay you, what I like and dislike about them, whether they have an affiliate or referral program, etc. (And yes, if I say they have an affiliate program, I'm part of it, and make a commission when someone signs up through that link...I like to be up front about that).





But watch out--there are also scams out there you need to watch out for. Here are some tips to avoid them:





Don't sign up for any survey site which asks you to pay to access the surveys. Also watch for language like "get paid for taking surveys AND SIGNING UP FOR OFFERS" if you don't want to have to sign up for stuff with other companies to get paid.





Always carefully read their terms of service and privacy policy. If in their privacy policy they say they only use aggregated info, this is GOOD SIGN they are legit. Aggregated info information that is grouped together so it can't be connected with anyones personal identification like name, e-mail, phone or address. That's what survey sites SHOULD collect. Avoid sites that say they give, rent, or sell any personal information (info that is not aggregated) to third parties (unless you really don't mind getting junk mail, telemarketing calls, and spam).





Also, never sign up for a survey through an unsolicited e-mail--since these might not even be from the site they claim to be, but could be a phishing scheme to get your information and mis-use it. And never give your credit card info--there is no good reason a legitimate free site would need it.





Here are two other sites which are very helpful

Reply:yes, i got a check in the mail for $100.
Reply:This company is legal and works to extra incomes. No scam. Free the first week. Search about them. Its legal and many people in US and world won money every week. Since 1999.
Reply:Yes,,it work.
Reply:mysurvey.com is free to sign up. But for every survey you take you get points and points equals cash.





10,000 Points = $10.00 and so on....
Reply:I think you'd "make" more money buying those lottery card games than taking online surveys. If you got the time and nothing better to do, it can't hurt...but watch the ones that reward you with spam. If you want the big kahona, enter the HGTV Dream Home Sweepstakes. Now you're taking millions. Good luck!
