Do not use AWsurveys.

I have been with AWsurveys for quite some time. I really worked hard on the site to earn some extra cash. The paying survey site required at least $75 for anyone to payout. I requested a payout around two days ago and waited for the site to send the money to my PayPal. However, just this morning I received an e-mail from AWsurveys that my payment was denied. I really was so disappointed with this since I really worked hard for the cash. I suggest people not to use AWsurveys. I researched about the site just recently and I learned that it was actually a scam. What do you say?

Oh, I'm sorry! I hate it when people work hard for nothing. Always, always, always do your research first. It's better if it happens to someone else first! Well, good luck, you're probably better off on Mylot.

It's not really work hard per se. That is, I spent some time for it really. I just want to tell my fellow myLot users not to be persuaded by the scam. Thanks for the info though. Yes, I am really better off with myLot.

Sorry for your lose. Time is precious. Yeah, have heard it here in mylot time after time that they are scam. Had you been here a little earlier you could have been tipped off. Anyways, don't take it so hard. That's just how it is in venturing free money online. We just learn one way or the other. Thanks for the heads up...

Yah. Time is precious indeed. If I had just known about it earlier. Well anyway, it's okay now actually. I just want to let everybody know that AWsurveys is actually a scam. I hope no one does fall for the scam again. :)

I am a member of this site. I am just waiting to reach my payout on this and have several referrals on this site. I do hope it's not true that they are a scam. I would still wait on it. As long as they aren't disappearing yet like the other site then I guess I would try. I am sorry they didn't pay you though. Did they tell you the reason why you got denied your payment?

I'm sure glad that I have helped. That's actually true, at first glance, they blind you somewhat. And when you have already done much, that's the time you realize that something is very wrong. Your welcome. :)

I had joined that site also. I just stopped participating. That is where MyLot come in handy. I read some of the post on this site and they said it was a scam, that is my reason for leaving. And this is another reason I say MyLot is very informative. You can learn a lot here.

I am so sorry to hear about this. I am sure so much effort have been put by you before you can earn the $75. But I am still hoping that the money is still there. Maybe you can check again tomorrow to see if the money is still in there and you can call the AWsurveys administrators to make a report. If the money is not there already then it is confirmed that this site is a scam and you can make a police report if you want to. This is the same as bank robbery the only difference is that it is an internet bank.

You are really right. I'm gonna be having a busy schedule next week however. I am already happy that I have shared this with people here so that no one else falls for the scam. Thanks a lot for your advice. I greatly appreciate it. :)

I am really sorry for you. Yes, A W Surveys is indeed a scam site. I make it a point to mention this site as scam whenever i get an opportunity too. That's the least I can do to help others not to fall into the trap of such sites. You should do so too (spread awareness) and take it as an experience of learning. Hereafter, when someone says about any site, first do a research on the net and satisfy yourself.

Too bad you discovered it late. I also joined the site before because they really give generous amount of money. But then through search engines, I have known that it is really a scam. They have many ways to avoid getting you paid.

Yah. That's right. It is not believable at all that they would offer such a huge amount for just very little time. I just hope I noticed that before. :)
