Survey Police Online Surveys Forum

[LizzieAnn]

I wanted to warn anyone else who does any surveys that my computer has just been trojan'd! Last night I went to a site called RED SHIFT RESEARCH and the pop-up for my AVG said virus, do you want to remove it to the vault, otherwise it could have been very nasty, so I removed it, hubby ran the anti-virus scan and fortunately our computer and data was saved. I think I did a survey for another company and it was hosted by Red Shift Research. I was just visiting the site to see if they had their own panel, but they do mystery shopping and have pdf files - I wonder if that might be responsible? I dont know enough about viruses to know this, but I also can't remember who I did the survey for...I think it might have been ipoints, or maybe testspin, but I am not sure, as I do so many.

I hope this warning is of some help to others.
