I think not! Quoting: Trample This is my bosses home mail... shes lives in a pricy condo, very nice area. I don't know if anyone in this area received one of these, but it did say we were "specially selected". The money is real too! A $2 Dollar bill? SO weird man... never heard of anything like this.

Anon1578 User ID: 21952662 United States 08/14/2012 01:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It's completely legit. They send you the most expensive top of the line wireless router (retail value $400) and send you $150 just for installing it. Every month they send you a check based upon your usage. The more information they receive, the bigger the check (up a certain amount). It's simply a survey system that makes it easier for them to calculate data and advertising optimization. Google is asking this company to do the research for them so they can use this with their future products (i.e. Google TV). They're basically lining up to compete with apple and it's product Apple TV. It's always good to be skeptical about "Free" money but some of you take it too seriously. What you don't realize is that most of you have Facebook accounts and facebook has been doing this since 2006. How do I know, you might ask? Look at the ads on your news feed. They are relevant to your "likes" and "dislikes" as well as your profile information. They have used what you've been looking at or your habits are and basing advertising around it. In the long run, they're paying you because you're making them A LOT of money. The data they give up is how much time the average person (based on the information you give them about yourself i.e. hispanic, white, 22yr, 38yr, employed, etc.) watches tv and what they are watching and when to maximize revnues or adjust pricing for shows and ads. It works, we've already made $500 from this in 2 months simply by clicking a button when I watch tv. And the devices they sent us are worth over $2,500 (3 Samsung Galaxy Players, one Cisco Wireless Router)that we keep after the survey. :) All for pushing a few buttons here and there. Fine by me if you ask :D :5a: |

hahahaha User ID: 18989889 United States 12/05/2012 03:08 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Hahahaha, I work for GfK. There's a very good chance I personally mailed this. This is not a scam at all. We do market research for a lot of companies like Google, Gerber, GE and others. We've sent out products to test like plastic baggies and those crunchy bottles that some water companies use. One of our surveys is for doctors and their checks are HUGE. Some people win iPads for doing surveys. We used to be knowledge networks but recently merged with GfK. Look at BBB for Knowledge Networks. A+ rating. |
kjsieps User ID: 30353717 United States 12/19/2012 05:28 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It's totally legit. I've had my devices since June and was making $65/mo. But just was notified that I was being removed from the program...guess I didn't give them enough info. You DO NOT get to keep the Galaxy tabs or router. The agreement even states that. They are sending me a prepaid label to send their stuff back to them. It was easy money...over $550!! |

And they've seen all the porn you've searched for Anything you searched, they've seen. But what I don't know is, who they are selecting for this. My mother got a 5 dollar bill in the mail and she's literally never turned on a computer in her life. So how did they select her or where from? |

WiFi at Starbucks is now Google, so they got ya there too. Wouldn't be surprised if they manage this site as an alter to their don't-be-evil slogan. Googs run by the international bankster stock-market CIA military industrial borg complex anyway. Openly stated that backdoors have been given. I think googs is just the happy, clean, corporate PR "we're the good guys!" wing of the sjrveilance apparatus. |
