Well. I finally got a response from AW Surveys.....lol. They deemed my account, and all of my referrals fraudulant. Hence forth, my payment has been denied. In this case I find this disturbing, because this would insinuate that ClixSense, Ads2View3, Adbux, and MilkyWay Clix, all send fraudulant signups, which I know is not the case. In my opinion, they cannot afford to pay the referral fees, and have no intention of doing so. To those of you who have recieved payments, congrats.....I wouldn't count on receiving another. I have started a campaign against AW Surveys and have also made reports to scam reporting sites and the BBB. This is absolutely unacceptable, if they want people to promote thier site, they are doing a really crappy job of making it worth peoples while. I say BOYCOTT A.W. Surveys. Lets shut this one down by Jan 2008, so no one else gets ripped of by these scam artists.

Hi HomeCash! I appreciate your efforts. Even I have always raised my voice against scams. A W Survey is the only site so far which had cheated me of my money. See the link http://www.awsurveyscam.com/comment.php in which a lot of other users also describe their experiences. In the comment section you will see me as 'lovelydame3000' the same id i use in mylot. I am surprised to see more and more people promoting this scam site. Is'nt it time for the site to get banned for fraud?

I knew this site was a scam as soon as I completed my first "survey." No one else would ever pay someone $4 or $5 just to write a few sentences about another site. So what would make anyone think that this site would. It's just a poor attempt to get people to sign up as referrals for the owner of A.W. on those sites that you have to review. I'm surprised there isn't an upgrade option so he can steal even more money from you.
Watch out for another scam site as well. Dataprocessors.org is a new site similar to A.W. Surveys. Just so you know you don't do any real data processing. You just review sites the same way you review sites for A.W. There is an upgrade option for this site. So hopefully none of you have joined that site and if so hopefully none of you have upgraded. It's just a scam.

No problem at all.....I only participate in programs that pay, and when one tries to work people over like this, I make sure everyone I can reach knows about it. All the best!

Definately Agreed. I am trying to get them to tell me about the process of exactly "HOW" the process of determining fraudulant accounts and referrals is done. I found thier explanation completely unacceptable, as they didn't tell me how they arrived at that decision. so I've requested tht they send me a detailed explanation of how they arrived at this decision. I can see maybe one or two referrals being bogus.....but I mean to find ALL of my 86 referrals bogus....that just does not add up!!

I sympathize with your situation, HomeCash. Beats me why they would do such a thing, if they are a legitimate survey site. I'm just wondering if you got more than the or 7 initial surveys (to earn you $27) after signing up, or did the surveys dry up after you reached $27. For me, I have not seen any more surveys for the past few weeks.

Yup pretty much the same. I made the inital $27. Then the rest of what I made came from referrals. Haven't seen a survey since. Most of who I have talked to, or had dealings with, are in the same boat.

Well, I see this post was rather old, but I still got referred to it. I took the surveys and got the $27 in less than an hour. However, I have made no referrals and at this rate I probably won't. From what I have seen, everyone else only gets the $27 as well, and the rest is all from referrals. How lame!

I was starting to wonder about A.W surveys...I have been a member for a while now and like everyone else I got suckered in with the quick money in the begining. I don't know anyone however, so I never got any referral money added to my account. They did offer me more evaluations though. 2 or 3 evaluations for 1 dollar and only once a month! Thanks for posting everyone with all these complaints I think I am going to close my account with them...not before I send them a nice evaluation telling them what my impressions are of their site. :)
