Making Money Through Surveys?
There are a lot of interesting offers out there promising this and that, and although they may look great in the beginning, things may not continue to pan out that way after subscribing.
Despite the fact that I had not had any real problems with one called InboxDollars, I still couldn't help but think, what do they have going on? This was because, despite the fact that you get a certain number of cents for each email read, the minimum to cash out is exorbitantly high. Check out this math:
You get $5.00 upfront and lets say $.02 for each email.
Furthermore, you need $30.00 to cash out.
That means, if you don't do any of the deals listed on their site (which in some cases are sketchy, involving credit cards and whatnot) you must read...
30=5+.02x
25=.02x
x=1250 emails
1250 EMAILS?
Think of all the cookies they must install on your computer, and how much advertising revenue this must all accumulate to.
Luckily, I only did this for a little bit before checking. Consequently, I have canceled my account.
So yes, this is just a warning about signing up for this and that. On the outskirts of this page are sites that I am registered for and have seen returns from. Also posted are relevant ads from google about content on the page :)
