I know over the last year or 2 more and more people have been **** and lost almost everything they worked damn hard for.

I also know that there are certain things you can do to prevent this from happening IE change password on a regular basis.

I am aware that 80% (if not more) of the hacks are from spam sites giving away free zen etc --- The rest is from sharing account infor volentarily.

So my question is the following.

If sites that offer "free zen" are so bad, is it safe to follow the link for "free zen" on the PWI website? You know...the banner ad that promotes free zen if you do surveys through PEANUT LABS?

Your input would be appreciated.

Thank you
Me
I went to bed last night, lying on my back, looking up at the millions and millions of stars. During this time 2 thoughts crossed my mind:

1 - Do we really believe that we are alone in this vast universe...
2 - If only I knew who stole my roof....

    Id stay away from Free Zen sites . Also PW probably wants us to lose our account so we will make another account and spend more money.

    Also is it safe?

    It's safe to go to http://offers.perfectworld.com/ and participate in various surveys for Zen reward.

    I did tons of surveys there, they never asked me my username or password, and my account is still safe.

    Did you tried it? Why do you think it's not safe?

    As I said, offers on http://offers.perfectworld.com/ are legit, they will never ask you for your username or password. And when you complete survey, you might or might not get your Zen. They have very strict rules about that, and if you don't comply to them, no Zen.

    That survey thing is basically easy and cheap way for those companies to collect data, that other company has paid for.

    But there is also tons of other websites, that says "Enter your username and password, to receive your Free Zen", those are scam websites, and they don't appear in the link above.

    It's not bull ****, that's hosted by pwi themselves. If you go to Charge Zen, then Earn Zen you can do surveys and what not for zen. It's been in the game for a long time now.

    Just don't put in any information directly related to your account and it wont get "phished" or "****". And always whenever using a third party website. Use common sense. If it looks too good to be true it usually is.
