What a scam on the internet? I never heard of such a thing! (sarcasm isn't my forte)
Seriously,,,I'd be pissed too if i put in that much time on a survey. I'm sure that if you read over their license and agreement and terms, they have some disclaimer that states "We have the right to withhold payment for yada yada yada & yada."
I have gotten screwed by these surveys too and,,it sucks but wgt has made them all 3rd party sponcers. I suppose wgt could drop their association with bogus companys,but i don't know much about it.
