Opiniongurus is a on line commercial research group. They send me mail to participate in their various on line survey regarding various matter ( i.e. survey on Automobil, Environment, Tourism etc. ) and earn 50 to 100 points against eacg survey . As per their advice I particaipate on those survey and completed correctly. After that they send me incentives in the form of Gift Certificate that could be redeemed online at http://www.indiaplaza.in to purchase Books, Mobiles, Digital Camera, perfumes etc. They also advertised in their portal as

\" Some more surveys to get you more Gift Certficates. Spare a few minutes and

participate on our current live surveys. You will have a chance to win more points

and redeem more gifts for yourselves and your loved ones.

Surveys where you can earn more reward points.

25 Early birds will have a chance to win NANO IPODs worth Rs. 9000! \"


I received two nos. Gift Certificate from them ( FAB********153019 & FAB********153022 ) on 20 & 22 Feb 2010 . When I reedemed them in Indiaplaza for online purchase the tag shown \' the mentioned GC are already used by another user \' and rejected online purchase. After that I send three reminders to Opiniongurus via mail regarding this but they don\'t give a reply till date . I assumed that all their above words are false and a sure harrasment to online subscribers.

Pls look into this matter so that justice should be done

Till date opiniongurus did not contact me in this regard , the only send mail
that contains misrepresented statement.

Your ( icomplaint ) immediate action is required

Thanking You
