I got this survey request from Amazon bribing me with a possible $50.00 gift card if I completed the survey, so what the heck, I'll bite. The survey was five simple questions and took about one minute to complete. Not surprising, I didn't win the gift card, but I was offered several other "free" gifts for my effort. A strange set of gifts, anything from anti-wrinkle cream to male enhancement pills. The only one that was any interest to me was some free watch from Miglia. The watch was free but you had to pay $6.00 in shipping.
I suspected something was up so I clicked on the "terms and conditions" (nobody ever reads these). The first part talked about your promise to pay the shipping, the second part stated that when you got this "free" watch, you were automatically enrolled in a program to get other watches at about $100 per month. NOT. I wonder how many other people signed up for their "free" product and didn't bother to read the fine print?
Amazon, you should be ashamed of yourself!
Are you sure it was really Amazon?
If itβs the same one I keep getting (mixed in with other emails purporting to be from various other sources), itβs not Amazon.
I always check the return email address of such postings and 10/10 it is not from Amazon
It doesn't sound at all like it is from Amazon. As raypep suggest, the best thing is to always such the email address.
It is not from Amazon. Look at the email link and also the bottom of the email itself. I get them all the time and in addition from CVS along with other companies. I simply delete them.

I get the same thing (supposedly from Amazon, Walmart and several others). They all come from the same "place".
Amazon sent me a request for a survey on the Fire TV product which I do not own. Actually survey would not even open. Can you say "Scam?"

I keep getting those and it usually goes through all kinds of bull. I sure wish there was a way to automatically trash them. They always change it so you can't redirect.

I did that to get a free super bright flashlight. Got the light and it is a good one. BUT, I did not read the fine print and also got a 40.00 a month Spy and Survival "newsletter". Finally got that stopped, I think. And my email address on another dozen lists for more spam.

I've been seeing these "surveys" show up in my spam folder. I've never thought that Amazon sent them, and I just delete them. We always have to be careful of what we click on.

Its not just Amazon. A couple of days ago, every time I opened a site, I got the same survey. It they are offering something for the best thing is to close out and go on. Don't stop!
ALWAYS BE SUSPICIOUS ON ANYTHING ON THE INTERNET. It's become a cesspool.
I got this same message when I logged into UHH. ANNOYING!. It's not from Amazon and as the fine print says you are entering for a CHANCE to win IF you COMPLETE all the REQUIREMENTS.
The problem I have with these pop-ups is that they keep coming up and I can't get back to the site I'm trying to get to so I don't often just move onπππππ
I get them too, if you read the fine print at bottom, it says ant associated with Amazon, it comes from people who sign up to send ads on the internet, it gives their name and address and if you want have the emails stopped.
