this sh1t seems too good to be true. i get an email on my college account saying earn money to take surveys....since its my college accout and i only have got official emails with no spam on it i open it up and take a peek. i start reading and its awesome, earn like $30 for a survey. well, it requires a $30 membership fee. its an online surveying filing out place, campussurveys.org is the site....

Campus Emails are nowhere near secure.

It is unreal how easy it is to get peoples campus email...all you have to do is search on most college sites and they give you a student contact list.

For example:

http://www.ulm.edu/cgi-bin/directory/search.pl

You can find the campus email for ANYONE connected to ULM campus.

Others:

Texas Tech
http://info.ttu.edu/

UCLA
http://www.directory.ucla.edu/

Ohio State
http://www.osu.edu/findpeople.php

Took my 2mins to find all 3.

I get spam in my ULM account all the time, and I dont even use it.

Hi Guys! Just wanted to confirm what you are all thinking, this is a fraud. I went for it, but I was fortunate enough to have the amount pending on my creditcard, just came from the bank and had the withdraw canseled. Campussurvei is a fraud - no doubt about that.

If you're interested in having a paying non actual job, look into one of those mystery shopper things. I did it this summer and just don't let them sign you up for their bullshiat packages. At first you earn free food, then you get free clothes, then they pay you. It's good stuff, check online or a pennysaver or something.
