Paid surveys at home.com is a company who offers lists of companies that supposedly want you to do surveys for cash - and/or prizes, lotteries, gifts & etc... Also they will get you in touch with (quote)"business people" who will help you start your own business.in reality what happens is, you end up doing a lot of free surveys, and instead of being cash surveys the way that they advertise, they end up being mostly drawings or what are called lottery drawings, what really amount to free surveys, when you consider that your being entered (?) into these drawings with how many thousands of people, if at all? Also instead of having cash coming to you, you end up having all of these (spam e-mails) (I guess thats what you call them) offers for things, mainly for you to try this product or that product, take this credit card, this loan, this free? Product or mfg company trial offer and so on. Also you do have private professional business people calling you to tell you about business opportunities alright, that is because they want to sell you something or get you to sell something for them, or to try there product.
One of the business men admitted to paying money to get adresses and e-mails from paid - surveys-at-home. It was'nt anything like it advertised itself to be, offers no refund, and even if it did I would not trust them for it.
I am relatively new to internet surfing & to these scams, so I am so thankful to find out so quickly what most of these companies are about. However I am surprised that more is not done about this kind of fraud & essential theft, mis-representation of services, literally stealing, going on in this country.
Also how badly this must hurt all of the good, faithfull & decent companies out there. I know for myself, this makes me leary & scepticle of all business on the internet and I would surely think it must cost the good businesses a bundle of money, I know it turned me off very quickly. I would think that a big push could be made for police... Or more like Federal or FBI envolvement to crackdown on these individuals. It could mean a lot of confiscated money to there coffers. I personally would be willing to press charges for companies such as these. Also legislation to make this kind of activity illegal, if it is not already, and to bring about legislation to get the arrests going. Thank you for your time!!! P.S. Also CLICKBANK is a? Bank that supports them, OR maybe legally look the other way???
