1 Question Survey:

http://hot-deals.mobi/

Click on Competitions & Prizes near the bottom of the page to reach the surveys

This link is to a survey designed to be viewed on mobile phones but firefox handles it no problem

EDIT2: Just found the desktop version of the site: http://www.mibuys.com/competitions.shtml

EDIT3: The terms and conditions there state closing date of 30th September, but the originallink definitely says 1st November - Now fully confused!!!

    Be very careful if you enter this survey as the site appears to be set up for marketing the information that you give

    if you visit there survey pages they ask different personal questions and it appears that they are designed to build a marketing profile of the entrants

    also from there privacy policy

    If you are in the United States, information which you provide may be transferred to the United Kingdom and additional European Economic Area (EEA) countries and those countries including Japan which do not have data protection laws equivalent to those in force in the EEA.
    In addition, personal information that you submit for publication on the network service(s) will be published on the internet and may be available, via the internet, around the world.
    looks like a great recipe for :spam:

    Best of Luck :)
