I haven't gotten junk in the mail, but my email is overloaded with junk.  But I just click the unsubscribe link on each of those and it's over then.

Every now and then I get a few pieces of mail from some offers I have completed but I wouldn't say its a lot.  And its not always bad mail like the consumer opinion offer came with a paper survey in it with 5$ in cash in the envelope.  I don't mind having a few colorful ads for my kid to color on and tear up if I get envelopes with 5$ in them lol.  Its funny though how we hate junk mail so much but kids love it for some reason, never fails every week when the walmart ad comes she steals it :)

I just joined FC last week, so I haven't received any junk in the mail. But I've gotten an ungodly amount of spam since signing up for all these surveys and offers!

I get alot of mail & emails. I have a seperate email just for my offers, that I check every few days. As for the mail not all is junk, I've recieved coupons & freebies as well (still waiting for my $5.00 though)

I get a lot of junk mail, but I signed up on a site that pays me every month to get it, so I haven't noticed an increase from signing up here. I was amazed that I got a piece of mail from a company that I had signed up with here at fc and it had a real $5 bill in it. I was so shocked that I asked my husband if it was real lol. Needless to say it was.  :thumbsup:

I haven gotten that much junk mail. I remember my cousin saying she had joined cash crate and eventually she had to close her email address... about 2000 spam emails per DAY. It's just horrid. So far so good though, my inbox looks pretty decent

I have yet to hit that point, but I'm averaging about 100 a day.

I do get occasional junk mail but you might want to open yours anyway. (See $5 in the mail in off-topics). Some of us signed up for an offer through FC and have recieved $5 bills in what appeared to be junk mail. Yes, I'm Serious. I took mine to the bank just to see if it was real. It was.

I think everyone gets junk mail wether they request it or not lol. I have been haunted by SMC for like 10 years now. They seem to have private investigators scoping out my house to see when I move and get my new address LOL! I also get a lot of garbage from Strayer University. I have never even heard of them and it cartainly is not from my paid to get junk mail site. I think you are going to get junk mail wether you do surveys, gpt sites, or anything else. The information is readily available and the hounds seek it out for potential prospects.

I receive insurance offers and grant offers in the mail all the time.  It can be quite annoying, but if I'm not interested I just recycle!!!!
I dont want to start getting junk mail from all these offers. Do any of you get junk mail from them?

Yes I have gotten some mail that is associated with sites I have signed up with or that reflects my interests that I have checked off.  Some of it is not really junk, but some is.  After all we are getting paid to sign up and provide our names for leads so that companies can send e mail and snail mail to hopefully interest us in their goods or services. So stand back everybody it will come.  I like getting offers and things in the mail.  You never know what you may find. It has been and can be something really interesting or worthwhile that you would like to try or use.
