WARNING from North American Consumer Opinion

[pepper60]

There is an email notice going around about sending money
to American Consumer Opinion (ACOP)...here's the official
warning notice from the company Vice President.

WARNING!
"North American Consumer Opinion" Scam

Do not send money to North American Consumer Opinion. It’s an
illegal and fraudulent scam. It’s a criminal attempt to exploit the
good reputation of American Consumer Opinion® to steal your money.
We hope that you will join the American Consumer Opinion® online
panel; it is always free and we pay you money to complete surveys.
You never pay us.

Thanks.

Anne Parks,
Vice President of American Consumer Opinion®

Note: Whoever is perpitrating this SCAM could do it to other
Survey, Product Testing, and Research companies. BEWARE
and stay alert...I've never know one of the reputable companies
to ask a panelist for money for any reason.
