Madame M asked in Yahoo ProductsYahoo Answers · 5 years ago

Did anyone else get a survey about Yahoo! Answers from Amy Jie?

Update:

It's via survey-monkey, so it's all looking a bit sketchy to me. Is it legit? If it isn't, who should I report it to?

Update 2:

Why am I suspicious? Well, the email is ugly(er than usual). It doesn't have proper punctuation. Yahoo! has been known to be quite hackable. When I googled Amy Jie, I got a Twitter account for Amy Jie Hackenberg . . . hacker name? Dumb hacker name? Unfortunate name for cyber employee? Also, I've never seen the term "Top Answer-er" -- it's Top Contributor. I think it's some sort of scam. Unless I see something here from someone with a staff badge.

    Yeah I got one for this account, but also for my other account as well which is currently suspended, so I am also suspicious.

    I noticed the same points about it as you and was suspicious. However, surveymonkey is a reputable site. I'll wait till I see something official from Yahoo.

    Just now....I have serious doubts about any benefit to users over these things; they are just trying how to manipulate advertising so they get the most money....that's my bet

    Yes, I just got it. No way am I gonna respond until I find out what it is. "Top User" Survey sounds suspicious..
