I have done surveys for ACOP for over a year. The initial sign-up was free. I have never been asked for any kind of money whatsoever. They are the most professional survey group I have worked for. You only get email from them when there is a survey coming up that they need respondents for. The pre-screening questionnaire is very short. If you are within the demographic they need, you receive another email within a few days or weeks with a link to take a longer survey. I received $3.00 twice for doing a survey that took about 15 minutes. Once I was sent a (free) product to use in the home and then give feedback for (for which I was paid.) I haven't qualified for many surveys, but I don't mind because it is very little effort and I haven't ended up on a bunch of mailing lists (which happens with MANY other survey sites.) My guess is that somebody set up a site made to appear to be hosted by this company, but wasn't. I have found it helpful to first do a search, check over the names as they appear, and go to those with the most likely reputable name. I then look on that site for a company history, etc. Only after seeing company data, contact numbers, etc., will I provide any personal information.
