Is Amanda Thompson's paid survey system for real or just a scam?

I have searched about it on the net, up and down, and I still get no clear explanation (between yes or no). Yes, it told me to pay before I can start the business (I forgot the amount, but it's between $39 - $50). Does anyone of you know about it? ... Thanks.

There are many survey sites that pay you. If they ask YOU for money so you can earn, turn and run in the other direction.

All money requirements aside, if someone puts their name by it, then it is probably fake, the name is to convince you that it is not. At least in my exprience.

Thanks, Reyk22. Yes, it's fake, and from now on, I won't let myself fall into such 'trap' again ... I almost trusted them ...

Never pay for the privilege of working for someone. If the work is genuine, they are there to pay you, not the other way round. In fact, it is no more than a directory of surveys and the amount they say you can earn is somewhat exaggerated. There are many free directories around such as http://www.whichsurveys.com if you want to do surveys.

The site may be legit however you never have to pay a company for surveys. I paid for a site when I first started. The site is registered with the BBB and has never had a complaint. However after I paid my money all it did was give me a list of sites to sign up for and other online earning opportunities. It has a life time membership. I quickly realized that all the survey sites that they gave were ones that I could find on my own for free, by just checking out different forums and places like here on mylot. So I would not suggest paying any money to do surveys. Or to a company that promises making a certain amount daily or monthly. You will find that there really is not set amount that you can make a day with surveys, it varies. Happy earning.
