            Is it possible you could end up in an identity theft by this kind of programs? I mean, it's just answering surveys and you need to put informations first. Are they paying you because of your infos or is it really the survey? Some of them looks like nonsense too. What's your opinion?

                    Here's my secret - I never give real personal info on surveys. No one finds out!

                            I heard that too. Hmm.. I wonder why, though. Thanks to this tip ^_~.

                    Most survey companies need your personal information to send you payment.  That really only requires your name and address.  If you are referring to cash offer surveys and feel uncomfortable giving out your personal information, someone here on MYLOT suggested using a visa gift card.  I think thats an awesome idea.  Good luck

                    usually surveys that i've answer never ask for my personal info's. They just need your answer for their product or services to improve.

                    I have never met anyone who made decent money from paid surveys.
And never give out personal information to anyone that you are not sure of.
If anyone has made decent money from paid surveys, please let me know about it.
Thanks.

                    Well maybe you have to be careful in giving your personal info. Always check if the survey link is really coming from the survey website that you signed up with. There are many identity theft these days especially if you have an online account.
