a REAL paying survey site... again, not a spambot ;)

Post by khaag »

Alright, I know you guys are probably thinking WTF, here's khaag again advertising some site that is just a scam and whatnot.

I'm not though. Here's the deal:

AWSurveys

This site pays you $6 instantly to sign up and take the 5 minute "sign up survey". Then there is a list of 5 or 6 other surveys (which are actually just short website reviews) that take not even 5 minutes each. Just BS your way through 3 sentences and your good. When you finish the survey, the amount indicated at the start is again instantly credited to your account (the amount is usually $4). Then, when there are new surveys available, you are either emailed, or you can check the site. Once you have $75 in your account you can cash out by either (a) a written check by mail (only if you are in the U.S.) or (b) Paypal (it costs $25 for the "faster delivery times :roll: ")

The paypal option is available to those outside the united states.

Now I know that I am probably breaking the rules, but this deal is too freaking sweet to not post. So please mods, don't lock this and lets have a discussion here. I can't see how this could be a scam, and if it is, how it could harm you in anyway. No personal information is collected or anything so I don't see the risk in taking a look. I just spent like 20 minutes completing all the surveys available and I now have $27 in my account. Give it a try and let us know how it works out for you.

Peace.

Don't post stuff like this untill you've actually gotten results. This could still very easily be garbage.

I agree with dudex; have you actually gotten anything out of this? Also, what kind of information do you give them during registration- cred card/personal data and etc?

And again, you're just trying to get money from referrals!

Let us know when you get paid.

I did it, and now have $27 dollars in my account for less than half an hours work. It was really easy, but that's all I can do for now. It might be all I can do for the month or week.
Hey, sup?

All you give them is a username, a password, your real name, and an email address. I don't believe any of that is considered "secure data"

As for getting anything out of it, I haven't recieved the money yet, it just says that I have $27 in my account. I have to wait till $75 to cash out.

I really hope this all pans out because I wouldn't mind some extra money to grab some new toys with.

I'm there for months now, still haven't reached 30$. It might seem like fast and easy money, but unless you get a meatloaf (word replaced by a similar sounding word, to pleasure the filter) of referers (excuse my language) it will take YEARS.

Exactly.

If you have to wait until you have $75 to cash out, they can simply let you "earn" $50 and then cut you off.

It's just like those web offers where you have to go through ten steps to get a free x-box or ipod, but steps 8 through 10 require you to spend large amounts of money.

Khaag, you really are spamming the board at this point.

The guy who got paid made it pretty clear that most of the money came from referrals.

And are you even allowed to have that advertisement in your signature block on this board?

I've tried this before , I had to get all my cash through ref's because there are so few surveys.

Once I had $75 , I tried to cash out. Nothing happened . I emailed them and asked about the they said it takes 3-7 to process payments. So , I wait for 7 days and recieve another email:

"We suspect that your referalls were fraudulent"

So I ended up getting diddily squat , and so did some of the people that I reffered. I wouldn't do it if I were , I guess they might pay out sometimes , but from personal experience i'd say steer clear of this.

Well I for one, am going to give this mo' fo' a shot. I mean in all honesty, what have I got to lose? I'd say a free $50 is worth it if it all pans out... and if not, then who cares? I think it's worth a try, and hope that it works.

And Limewater, I do believe I am allowed to put whatever the hell I feel like in my signature box. There is no profanity, no offensive material and therefore, no problem.

I'll let you guys know how it works.

Uhh, yeah... why not? We are trying to see if this thing works or not...

You know, it would be great if everyone just signed up... even if you are not going to use it. :wink: *hint hint*

EDIT: Also, does anyone know of a large message board where I could post this to try to get more referrals, more quickly?

A couple of people got Zunes and Vista. That wasn't fake by any means it was just that Micro$oft caught n to everyone's cheating. Khagg, just try /b/, their are probably enough people dumb enough to click on it and go through with it without questioning the fact that you are gtting referals.
