    This site flagged up on my toolbar with a red flag warning as a dangerous site and i struggled to exit from it.
    Obviously some sort of scam.

    What it may grow to in time, I know not what.

    It's a scam, just a one page web site made up to look like a newspaper site.

    If you check out the menu and other links on the site you will find they all lead to the same place, a site trying to sell you a way of making money on the internet.

    As everyone has already identified this website is a scam site. If it seems to good to be true, i'm afraid it usually is!

    If you are looking for any new survey websites to join i would definitely recommend the following:

    https://www.panelopinion.co.uk - this is my favourite survey website, it is simple but effective and I have won a lot of CASH on here...You can withdraw your money when you get to £10 and it doesn't take that long to build up a good amount.

    https://www.valuedopinions.co.uk - this website is good because they frequently have new surveys, which means you can qualify for them more often.

    https://www.surveyfriends.co.uk - this website rewards you with vouchers and prizes, which seem VERY easy to win lol. During 2012 I have already won a £50 amazon voucher and a £10 ticketmaster voucher and my friend won a 40" HD TV just before xmas. I am recommending this website based on our recent and previous success

    I have joined numerous other survey sites but have had the most success with the ones above, especially panelopinion!

    Remember: Never pay to join any survey site - its often a scam

    Hope this has been of some help, Good Luck :)
    :eek: 2014: £20 voucher from SurveyFriends, £10 cash payout from Panel Opinion too and working towards more from Valued Opinions currently.
    2013: £35 and £50 vouchers from SurveyFriends! More than £15 made from other paid surveys sites (Yougov, Panel Opinion, Valued Opinions, Pinecone, etc.) Happy so far!
