What "gift" ? "not be told to buy anything" ? Hmm...that seems quite suspicious. From when did *anyone*, in Mumbai, become so benevolent to give out free gifts? I used to receive several telephone calls where I would be invited to a "meeting" for an "hour" at the end of which we would get "gifts". I never attended one but I know they are scams or stupid marketing gimmicks.
Apart from that, there are several spelling mistakes, no professional tone and the email is quite sloppily drafted. Could these guys be genuine? or is it just a scam? Looking forward to hearing from the more "experienced" luggers :)
There is no such thing as a FREE lunch. Even if the offer is genuine you have to figure if the gift is worth 1 hour of your time plus travel.
Having said this, I have participated in online surveys and have actually received checks or books by mail. However, they were American companies.
