Surveys, yes or no?

[Nightjar]

Has anyone ever experienced this?
Was told some time ago, never enter into "surveys" because they gather your info and sell it off to interested parties and you'll get bombarded with spam.
Shrugged it off at the time.
Recently I liked the look of a survey and decided I'd participate. WRONG!
Within days I was receiving discount offers etc etc from companies I'd never heard of or had any dealings with. One of the main offenders were lowlifes offering incredible deals with crypto currencies (Can't remember actual name)
Moving right along lesson learned will never complete a survey again.

Same with free prize draws at shows, exhibition's etc they are only after your email address

You weren't the only one who has done that Peter. Took me ages to unsubscribe to all the spam emails afterwards. :N:

Cheers

I think we have all learned from that mistake. e.g. the $1 iphone sales.

When i lived in Melbourne many years ago , i was on the books of 3 survey agencies and got paid anywhere between $70 for attending 1 1/2 to 2 hour survey sessions to $120 for a 3 hour session. I even went to one at the old Hilton hotel with a mate where we tested different beers. My mate got blotto , but i had to drive home ,so didn`t sample as much beer . Another was a group of us giving our opinion on a possible introduction of a GST when there were whispers of it in the air.These were in the days before i had a computer. When people ring me up and ask to do a survey over the phone , i tell them to bugger off. I went in the draw to win a prize at the Ballarat show about 15 years` ago and got a phone call to tell me i had not won , but the bloke wanted to come over to our place and demonstrate his vacuum cleaners. I now refuse to do any survey of any kind.

My Mrs ordered a bulk pack for me. I thought they where the famous blue pills and felt insulted but she assured me they were just stop you rolling out of bed pills.

Got up this morning to another day of deleting spam from the stupid mistake of doing a survey.
There was 38 already directed to the "spam"
Fair enough I suppose it gives some one a job but this clown fell for it.
