I just logged in and once again an offer from FTD was available.

I would not wait for emails to arrive in your in-box this is now the second offer I got by logging in to my account.

If you look at these 'surveys', it's really a method to gurantee that you read their ads. The survey is secondary. In comparison to other pay-for-survey sites, e-miles ask minimum # of questions and is aimed to market product to you.

zactly, and that's totally fine by me... as long as opening pages does not give my email box any spam and cause harm or annoyances to my PC. Hey, if someone wants to give me points for glancing at something, I will take it

I signed up for this, but I am worried that they might give out my email address to their sponsors. I don't mind receiving the questionaires but I would not want the ads directly from the advertisers.

yeah then you'd have an inbox like mine... ( I think many are from MyPoints spam) which has like 1001902830123 new spam messages a day and every time I refresh, there are more.

That's why I cancelled MYPoints. I was sick of all the spam messages.

I've gotten emails twice now telling me I had new offers to check out. I've done several but havent checked my total miles yet. I just went thru and dont several and removed some from my list. Now I'm anxiously awaiting more offers...

I'd never use my real email addie for this, please tell me people dont still use their actual real emails for these types of things..Say it aint so...


Whooops...Just checked. I'm only up to 315 so far...
