If they ask you to pay ANYTHING to get info from them, then NO.

If you do some work, check and see if they will let you do one project, then pay you via paypal or something. That way you can both prove yourself to each other: you give quality work, they provide payment. Go from that initial building of trust.

Surveys are generally scams via the Internet. So don't go there. Instead, you can either begin a career as a free lancer, or you can start doing other things from home.

Yes, I would skip the surveys, as most want you to pay first before doing anything more, and that is a scam. Genuine freelance jobs exist out there. One place to look is guru.com, another is online-writing-jobs.com

A little more information on freelancing for you:
