Saw a survey that looked like it was from you-tube asking about how many videos you watch/week. It offered you a chance to win an i-pad by answering the questions. After answering the questions, I had to enter my email and phone number. Once I did that, I was told I had to answer a few more questions to finish, but I decided to look at the terms on the bottom, which said in very small writing that I would be charged a monthly fee on my phone bill to enter some kind of scam sounding "rewards" program. I knew it was a scam, so I did not proceed with the final steps and closed it out at that point, but then I still got a text saying I was part of the rewards program. Looked up the site "bonusrewardstoday.com" and think it's the same company that may have changed their site to bigrewardstoday.com due to complaints. They set up a unauthorized monthly fee on your phone bill while making you think you are just filling out a survey for a different company (you-tube, apple, etc because they use these company's logos on the survey). They don't even mention this "rewards program" you are unknowingly signing up for on the main screen while you are completing the survey, you have to read the tiny writing at the bottom.By the time these terms appear at the bottom, you are already signed up because you have already entered your phone number as part of the "survey".
