“Cheaters never prosper” seems to be a slightly archaic maxim these days, but in the case of Google Opinion Rewards, it’s accurate. Somehow, they know when your survey answers are inaccurate, and will punish you with a reduced rate of surveys. This is done by providing you with “fake” surveys; if a you receive such a survey, be honest.
Trick questions might involve asking you if you went to a particular location that you didn’t visit, or engaged in a particular activity (perhaps skydiving). They’re easily spotted, but you’ll receive fewer fake surveys if you answer truthfully. If you lie, say goodbye to Google Opinion Rewards for a while.
