Default Scam or what?

I was watching alias last night and saw this ad about www.emailcash.com.au

Its some crap about filling out surveys and getting money from it.

This has to be a scam???

Some of them may be, But I know a woman that does it all the time, and has been for around 12 years, she has most of her food supplied for free, as she tests new products, she has been given tv's, clothes, household goods etc

I have also done the surveys and got from $50 to $200

It's a good thing, I think you just need to research who your doing it for.

I don't think it's a scam but you don't get much money from it unless you do about 50 a day!

Ive been a member of emailcash for a while now, ive just never really used it for anything, so i havent gotten to the point where ive been given $$ or anything - seems you need to build up a sh!tload of points to even get close to getting anything resembling cash.

That said, i can understand why people would reckon its a scam - late night TV isnt exactly the best medium to advertise, and the people on the ad (assuming its the same one they show here) are verrrry dodgy lol. :nutsycuck

However, if being dodgy gets you a date with Jennifer Garner, call me Mr. Dodgy! : :thebirds:

Better off actually having a real job (and EARNING money), rather than filling out a few hundred surveys just to receive a coupon book or some shit... LOL.
