Opini Pix promises to pay you for sharing your opinion, but this promise may turn out to be too good to be true.
Getting paid to share your opinion online seems pretty harmless, but there are a few things about Opini Pix that just do not adding up.
Will Opini Pix really pay you for your opinion?
Regular pay checks are certainly not stretching as far as they used to these days, and people all around the world are looking for ways to generate an extra income on the side.
If you are looking for a new income-generating side-hustle, chances are, there are few options on the web that seem as appealing as Opini Pix. This company that will reportedly pay you simply for sharing your opinion.
Given that most of us share our opinions free of charge anyway, getting paid for this simple task certainly seems like a good deal. But with so many scams doing the rounds on the internet these days, it is better to be safe than sorry.
Understanding how online survey scams work
If you are having doubts about signing up for any new online survey service, it is always best to protect yourself by studying how the newest online scams work and what you should look out for.
While completing an online quiz or survey seems pretty harmless at first glance, these scams usually revolve around the collection of your private data. Some of the tell-tale red flags to be on the lookout for include:
- Requests for personal details that may be irrelevant to the quiz
- Requests for sensitive information in exchange for special rewards
- Obvious grammatical errors, typos, and unprofessional design or formatting
What you should know about the Opini Pix app
The Opini Pix app is rather difficult to track down online. And even when you do manage to find a listing of the app on Google Play or the Apple App Store, there are no real screenshots or reviews to give you a glimpse of what interacting on the app is really like.
The website listed on the App Support section of the Opini Pix Google Play page also leads back to a simple privacy policy explanation for another app called WhatsPix.
Furthermore, the email does not seem to be affiliated with any official business email address.
What the reviews say
Opini Pix is still fairly new to the South African market, and as a result, the app does not have many local reviews just yet.
However, Opini Pix only has a score of 3.3 out of 5 stars on Trustpilot. Though most of the Trustpilot reviews are in another language, the most recent English review mentions a lack of payment from the platform.
