I've bid on 3 or 4. I've had contact back from all, won 2 and got mucked about by one who had bid for someone to go to the cinema with him. He was Cheltenham based. He kept going on about being shy and needing to meet me first. At one point despite my instincts I agreed that he could come to mine for a cuppa, but after saying he was coming over all morning I delayed on answering one message and he said he was driving directly home. Needless to say I was fuming and no longer trusted him, so it never happened. I think he was a timewaster.
It can be quite good, especially if you are at a loose end anyway, so I would not knock it, but yes some of the requests make your toes curl and the rates they are willing to pay are ridiculous. It can be a good laugh just to read.
