Being Entered Into A Sweepstakes
« on: November 16, 2018, 08:08:14 pm »
I am on survey sites that enter you into a sweepstakes when you do not qualify for a survey. There are also other sites such as Fusion Cash that have some clients who do the same thing.

I have been entered into too many to count sweepstakes instead of receiving a small amount for not qualifying but have never ever won a sweepstakes.

Has anyone on FC ever won a sweepstakes for not qualifying for a survey?  Do you know anyone who has?

I used to belong to a site that did that..so I got entered into a lot of sweeps but never won one.  There a survey that I've done many times that has you pick a grocery bag of stuff to win....I wonder if anyone ever wins it  ???

One site use to give you a spin of a wheel were you could get .01, .05, .10, $1, 1 sweeps entry, 5 sweeps etc.  Generally you either got .01 or a sweeps entry (which you never won).  I think they went to all sweeps.

I've never gotten a sweepstakes entry, but I'm not all that lucky so probably wouldn't win anyway!  It would be interesting to know if anyone ever does!

I've never won so it does't matter.

I have one site that I get a sweepstakes entry every time I claim a cash prize ($0.002) as well as another one if a referral does it. I must get a couple dozen a day, but no winners yet.

Has anyone on FC ever won a sweepstakes for not qualifying for a survey?  Do you know anyone who has?

I'm wondering if anyone has ever actually won or if it was a gimmick. I've not come across any sweepstakes as of yet though so I can't say any opinion personally.

No, I have never won a sweepstakes but this year, I'm very hopeful that I will get the Publisher's Clearing House prize.  LOL   ;D

I may have read on a forum somewhere that somebody won a prize in a drawing.  It was a long time ago and I don't even remember where I read it.

To me, I believe that the odds of winning one of those improbable prizes is about the same as stepping outside, walking onto an open area, jumping up and down and eventually breaking the law of gravity and floating off into space.   :silly:

Anytime it says sweepstakes entry I delete the page.   They are all scams as far as I'm concerned.
