Tap Survey with odd message
« on: April 27, 2020, 02:47:39 am »
Yesterday, I took a Tap survey (a very easy one, as I recall) with very straightforward questions.  It took about 5-6 minutes and I was excited to get my .10 --- BUT, instead I got a message that I would NOT get credit because it was determined my answers were fraudulent.....they were not -- I can't even remember the questions now, or the survey company -- I just closed out of the survey, went on to another and earned more than I needed for today's PTC.  What the WHAT??

I had an experience like that a week or so ago on FC surveys.  This survey was really long too, at least 30 minutes.  After I went to 100% completion, it claimed my answers were fraudulent, WTH!   Can't remember the survey name now but then I did and I wrote them an email bc I was ticked off.   :turkey:

We do have some challenge here but also rewards.

I am sorry this happened to you.  It does not surprise me.  I can only hope that the same does not catch me, too.

I got this message just a little while ago. I was doing a TAP Survey for Opinion Bureau. I was on another site, not Fusion Cash and I got the following message:

You will NOT be compensated for this survey!
Due to discrepancies in redirect variables, your case has has been flagged for suspected fraudulent activity.

If you feel that you've been flagged by security incorrectly, please reach out to security@questmindshare.com and include your original survey invite URL.

Of course, I got out. Sounds very suspicious.

These are rather disturbing messages.  Or, perhaps, perplexing.  It sounds like a technical issue of some kind -- something triggers a warning message such as fraud when there is no apparent reason for it to do so.  I do not see how your typical answers in the course of a survey could be reviewed in real time and be evaluated as fraudulent?  Am I missing something here?

P.S. Great response, kjstruckel ~ "What the WHAT??"  If you don't mind, I plan to use this one going forward...WTW  :heart:

Yup, that's the message I got.  VERY suspicious, I think!

That's surprising. Quest has always been pretty reliable. I haven't seen a Quest survey lately but I've done quite a few of them and never gotten that message.

I have gotten to a place where I will not continue with a survey it says that it will take more than 5 minutes.  It does not seem to be worth it to me because of so many disappointing responses as you all have expressed.  I have gotten to the end of a 20 survey, thanked for completing and then not get credit.  ,
