Signing up for spam = money!

Last night, I signed up at CashCrate AND made some money. Companies pay CashCrate to list their surveys and signups, and Cashcrate then pays users a small portion of that money to complete the various offers. From the CashCrate FAQ:

"We assure you that this is not a scam! Companies need consumers to try and review products, services, and websites and are willing to pay money to have them do so. Most of the time you're asked to do this without any compensation, what we do is take the money companies give us for YOUR participation, and give you back up to 75% of it!"

I'm guessing that the email account I used for the signups will be inundated with spam, but that's what I use that account for anyway :). I went through a half dozen or so of them, and today my account says I have a confirmed $8.05! The minimum payout is $10, so I'll probably try to do a few more signups tonight to get there. I've seen other people posting that they do pay, but I'm cynical about this stuff.
