It sounds like you may not be dealing with the real Survey Monkey.  There are look-alikes out there.  Just to be sure, I will investigate this with Survey Monkey.  We certainly don't want our members getting spammed because they participated in one of our surveys.

"Then I started getting 4 or 5 emails from surveymonkey urging me to SPONSOR surveys through them, and telling me I could make millions depending on the number of surveys I sent out and the number of people responding."

So are you a millionaire yet?

The second day, there were about 40-50 spams, including three or four from surveymonkey urging me to participate in other surveys and get paid for it. The third day I had more than a hundred spams from many different companies, everything from auto insurance to Viagra.
