Got this e-mail today from "CO/E-miles" Looks legit...appears to be OPM for completing surveys and the like.
Anyone else receive this or enroll??

I got it and deleted it. I've received them in the past too. Doesn't seem worth it as I have more miles than I need as it is. I imagine whatever email address you supply, it will be jammed with "offers."
If you are interested in the program, you might want to check out the SPAM forum under Miles & Points. You can probably find some better insight there.
Good luck.

I received it last week, but it was from my NWA account. Filling out the forms and completing the profile surveys took about 10 minutes and gave me about 300 points. I just filled it out for my husband with his CO account (had to use his email address) so he got the 300 points as well.

I signed up awhile back through Delta email but have not received any other offers... I don't even get junk-email and if I go to site is says nothing new, that I've completed all surveys.... so it appears to have been a waste of time.

The interesting thing about the E-miles program is that it takes a minimum of 500 earned miles to trigger a transfer to the airline programs. From the postings so far, it seems no one has received enough miles to actually earn miles in the airlines' programs.
On the face of things, it seems like a cost free way for the E-miles program to gain lots of info without incurring any liability for payment as long as the registrant doesn't get to earn more than 500 miles or points. E-miles liability for paying miles is limited by the number of surveys offered.
Cynical side of me smells a sham.

how is this different from the e-rewards concept? As in, why cynical of this one if e-rewards seems to work?

If I remember correctly, the fine print on this deal said that miles were only transfered "quarterly", not like the OpinionPlace miles transfer to American.
3 months wait for hardly any miles sounds bad to me.

I got it too. It was promptly deleted. More spam? Don't think so. Intuition told me it wasn't going to be worth it.
