Surveys, yes or no?

Has anyone ever experienced this?
Was told some time ago, never enter into "surveys" because they gather your info and sell it off to interested parties and you'll get bombarded with spam.
Shrugged it off at the time.
Recently I liked the look of a survey and decided I'd participate. WRONG!
Within days I was receiving discount offers etc etc from companies I'd never heard of or had any dealings with. One of the main offenders were lowlifes offering incredible deals with crypto currencies (Can't remember actual name)
Moving right along lesson learned will never complete a survey again.

unfortunately pete you are a victim of cookies .get use to it

I agree. Stay clear of surveys and shopping memberships. Your in box will fill up over night with all manner of bs offers and it will continue for as long as you have a computer plugged in.

Yes, i made the same mistake.
Lesson learnt.

A few years back I went to an "outdoors and fishing" show , paid to enter and just inside the door was a "free raffle", a boat with every thing included, just put your name, address, phone number on the ticket to enable contact if you win. After a couple of weeks I started getting hammered with phone calls from telemarketers and charities from everywhere.
NEVER go in a free raffle, they sell your name and contact info to pay for the prizes.

Scrubby.
