Official Message from GlobalTestMarket

Official message from GlobalTestMarket regarding fraudlent accounts:


GlobalTestMarket has recently begun to conduct quality reviews of our membership to ensure that legitimate members continue to receive the maximum amount of surveys and thus the most cash for taking those surveys.

GlobalTestMarket’s goal is to connect members with market research companies and departments. Since the beginning of 2007, over 65,000 members have been paid over $4 million USD, and we expect that number to grow substantially in coming years. That being said, we have established procedures to close accounts when there is substantial evidence to suggest that continued involvement would negatively affect the quality of market research being conducted by our clients.

It is not in GlobalTestMarket’s interest to remove active, legitimate members, but as online panel-member quality becomes of greater concern to our clients, we need to respond accordingly. After all, without our clients, there would be no surveys for our members to take.

As some members have expressed concern over these changes, we would like to assure you that our legitimate members continue to receive – and get paid for taking – online surveys. These measures will not only help you to receive the maximum benefits from taking surveys through GlobalTestMarket, but will improve the quality of online market research.

Unfortunately, we cannot disclose our review process as this would provide clues to circumvent our policies to fight fraud. Again, we have our members’ interests in mind and truly feel these steps will benefit everyone.

If you feel your account was closed in error, you can contact us through http://www.globaltestmarket.com/. We will review each appeal thoroughly before reaching a final decision.

As always, thank you for your participation and your valued membership.

Sincerely,

Gabriella McNabb
GlobalTestMarket
