Have you noticed that sometimes when you click on "Check earnings" on the cashgopher icon, it takes you to a page where you have to fill in your personal information? I thought I already did something like this for the site, but in the url, it says at the end of the url is says something like /offers..... This makes me think that this is a sneaky way of getting some personal information from us..... can some one correct me? Or am I just confused? Because I got this page before and now I am getting it every time I am opening up cashgopher.

I had the same problem! I thought it was CashGopher asking me for it, so I filled it out quickly because I couldn't bypass it. I was going to write them a support ticket, but I'm not feeling that well today, so I haven't had a chance. It seems like it's for a certain site, like a survey site, because afterward, I got asked if I wanted to receive freebies, coupons, etc. 
And they don't even mention what site it is that grabbed my information. I'm a bit nervous and angry about it.

Hello Steph, do not be alarmed, as an old GPT member that is what that is these are offers just like the ones from GPT sites, the only thing you get out of it is a load of spam. If you do them on GPT sites you have high probabilities of earning 30 -85 cents per offer. I hate that they did not mention to us in the forum that they would be using them. See by completing the offers you will get loads of spam and the cashgopher site gets the earnings. Ha, pretty sneaking.
Did you not have the option to say no right away?? I did and I recognized it right away and said no to it. If you did not have that option I would certainly complain as how dare they not allow you to say no, and they get the earnings. Well maybe they will be sharing the revenue, I doubt it since there is no mention of it in their blog forum.

I actually didn't see where I could say no or close it or anything. It was just a random page asking me to fill out my info. When I did, it asked me if I wanted any offers, etc and I said no to them all. Thanks for the information though! I appreciate it! It helped calm down my worries.

I use to do GPT religiously and when I saw that I immediately knew that basically what it wants is to generate some earnings form other sponsors.
So I always say no, it is not a way to get information from us form cashgopher by the way, it is for extra earnings to the cashgopher site.
I recognized the offers right away, so I just say no to them as I am not interested in GPT anymore and besides if I complete them we would get loads of spam, absolutely nothing in return in terms of earnings, but cashgopher site gets the earnings. Maybe they will share them, but I highly doubt that since they did not inform us on their forums that they would be using them.
My best suggestion is to say no if it comes back again.

Yes, I get suprised too. Every time I open the page, I am asked to fill up the form. Really, I don't understand why it wants me to do that each and every time. It does get a bit annoying. Cashgopher management should review that again , and correct the procedure to make things more pleasant for the users.

I have a hard time signing up with Cashgopher, Everytime I went to age bracket there's an indication that's invalid date. I don't know what that means because I'm typing the right year, month and day of my birth. I have the feeling that the site won't consider my membership.
