Personal Information
« on: October 08, 2016, 08:27:22 am »
In  "Your Surveys" , there's a certain survey that  requires to fill up a form with all your personal information. Most of it pays .20 or .30. Do you guys really give your personal information there like Name, Last Name, Address, even the apartment number. Do you think this is too much information to reveal? Please give me your thoughts about this.

No, I do not give it out. I only do what I am comfortable with. There are some product test surveys that I do, that will send me a product to try, but it's stated clearly that the address is for mailing the product.

The only time I give this information out if it was a product test study where they send me a product to test and try it out. Then I do their follow up survey on the product I tested that they sent me. That's all I pretty much it.

I only give out what information is considered public record.  Your name and address is public record. I'm more leary of them getting my email address or phone number to spam and annoy me.

I don't give it out. I do not feel comfortable with it.

Usually those "surveys" have you registering for another site when you fill out that info,  that's not part of the actual survey,  then you get more qualifying questions and your normal chance of being DQ.  I don't waste the time, I might already be a member(I have lost track of all those place they make you "sign uo"for) or I get DQ.

I avoid those type of surveys, not comfortable with giving my info to some one I don't know.

I made the tragic error of giving my cell phone # on a survey... I have been bombarded with calls about my "request for Social Security Disability".  P's me off.  I have blocked those phone #s, and learned a valuable lesson..... NO CELL PHONE NUMBER, EVER!

Never give out your cell number that is how all the spam starts.   I really do not like giving out my address need to feel comfortable with the company.
