rogerssurvey@euro.confirmit.com looks like a scam to me

Hard to say for sure.  RSG is a real survey company, and Asking Canadians is a very large company that does surveys for many companies including PetroCanada.  Petro Canada used to do their own surveys, but put them out to Asking Canadians a few years back.  Could a Rogers person confirm whether this is real.

After doing a little digging around, I would say it's legitimate. I have not received this notice myself, though. That's probably because my marketing permissions don't allow it.

Hm. It looks pretty legitimate to me. I can't confirm if it's real or not but the links appear to be to actual sites and not phony 'phishing' versions of the sites. The survey site is real as well.

Not to mention the e-mail has proper grammar. The scam e-mails almost always have bad grammar. I'd say this one is not a scam. But again one of the regular employees might be able to 100% state it is legit.

What set me off was the link to the site which should have been shortened IMHO. I haven't looked at the other replies yet as trying to get used to this site. Thanks!

Scams generally offer a guartentee of some sort (Fill out a survey and get a $50 gift card or an iPad or some other such bullspit.)

They generally dont offer a contest entry or link to actual contest rules.  This looks legit on its face...
