The Global Survey Group is actually a legitimate market research company that focuses on short and simple online surveys. It is exclusively set up for people 18+ in the United States and then based on your demographic data you will be sent various paid online surveys. Global Survey Group focuses on short surveys so it is never a major time commitment, each survey will usually take a maximum of 7 minutes to complete.
Paid surveys are one of my favorite things to review because the majority of them are indeed scams, but this company is legitimate. Each survey you fill out will enter you for a chance to win a prize from a large pool of prizes which is always changing up. At the time of this review there are a couple 50" plasma tv's, free gas for a year, and $100,000 cash as the major prizes you can win. This isn't something you need to do religiously but frankly it can be fun sometimes to provide feedback to companies on their products and get advanced notice of upcoming commercials, etc.
As far as I'm concerned I will put in a few minutes each day to do my surveys and if I end up walking out with the $100,000 prize then I'll be laughing all the way to the bank. Something tells me that "product scam reviews" will stop adding content pretty quickly after that happening.
