Dear All, I am the one of the so called “advertiser” in the category of “computer and internet” in cash88.com, But frankly speaking, I never join this program and never asked to be their advertiser. They simply put my company name and website on that category. I requested them to remove but still no feedback for them. For those member who joined please be careful.

Sorry to remove your referral link. If you have good thing to share, just post the website url will do. If the ppl wish to referral by you, then they will put your name. Please don’t simply put your referral URL here.

Hi,

I have read through your comments here, and it’s very interesting to see what you all think of taking part in online surveys.

I am sorry to read, however, that one or two of you, who happen to be members with MyPanel, are worried about their earnings and/or our company. I would like to set it straight.

MyPanel is a Malaysian based company, therefore you will not be excluded from our surveys simply because you live in Malaysia. On the contrary: we are explicitly looking for Malaysian citizens to share their opinions and experience!

If you have reached your 15 PanelPoints (RM15), you may redeem for cash. All you have to do is request this via email or phone. It will not be sent to you automatically as you may save it too.

Any suggestions for improvement of our website are more than welcome! We would love to hear them. We are always on the lookout on how to grow!

Hope this info is helpful to you. Please contact me with any questions you may still have.

Best regards,
Hubertien Koopman
Managing Director

Hey Ian, thanks for your valuable feedback on online survey. I do believe on there is Real survey. Most of them is limit to mostly Europa and US ppl. For SEA, they prefer to go for Survey Company like AC Nielson, Synovate, etc…

Anyway, never pay money to do survey. Back to the rule: You are Paid to work!

Well, i had joined more than 10 surveys companies since two years ago, and they are legit and 100% Free to join free to take survey of cause.

Making income by joining surveys? Well, not really, some surveys has geographical restrictions and thus makes SEA members loses chance to earns more survey points or rewards.

These companies usually reward their panel members after the member collect enough point to redeem rewards. such as cash through paypal, Amazon.com Gift Cert, Cheque and etc.. About international cheque, from what i know, the local bank will deduct fees and charges from the cheque, thats like deducts our earning yes, but not by the surveys companies.

So far so good for me. Yes, i did gives whatever information they need, such as names of family members, ages, my ID card numbers and etc during registrations or first survey.. What do they do with my details?

If i am not wrong, they need it to categorize their panel members for their clients, who are their clients? Well, companies that making product business.

So, have i receive anything yet from what i ‘ve join? Not really yet because i do no have enough points yet.

Back to the point, to answer you question, ‘Is online survey a Scam?’, well, my answer to you is, most of them is not, be cautious on those which ask for amount of fees to join.
