The caller requested that I participate in a survey, claiming it would involve very personal questions about my family and me, and offering a $50 gift card as compensation. However, they failed to provide any credible identification, leading me to believe it was a scammer attempting to gather sensitive information.
Survey scam offering $50 gift card? How to protect yourself!

Expert Opinion
Ever wondered why a call promising a $50 gift card for a quick survey feels off? Most reports point to a fabricated "Ohio Wellness Survey" that uses a generic spam‑risk label to lure recipients. The script typically asks for personal details under the guise of a research study, then disappears. Never share sensitive information unless you can verify the organization through official channels, such as the university’s website or a trusted phone directory. If the call sounds scripted or includes background noise, treat it as suspicious, block the number, and report it to your carrier’s spam‑filter service. Staying cautious helps cut down on these unwanted solicitations.
