@bejzik... Looked at the link you gave which basically tells people to use a proxy to hide their location and enabling them to complete surveys multiple times. A few examples of people earning 2,000- or so boost. My question is this... The average survey takes round 15-20 minutes to complete, and it would probably take around a couple of hours to earn say 2,000 boost. If you purchase boost using Poland as your country, then 3,500 boost costs 1.15 PLN (around $0.36 USD).
A person spending a couple of hours doing surveys for less than 3,500 boost is giving their time a value of less than $0.18 USD an hour. In a few third world countries that might be a reasonable rate, but for anybody who has the ability to play this game, that, to me, simply seems crazy. Why do surveys in order to save about ten cents?
Anticipating response of, but I am a kid and I have no money...there are always heaps of ways for an enterprising kid to earn money. In Australia lots of kids collect aluminium soft drink cans and return them to recycling centres for cash. A kid who cannot generate an income is a kid without hope or imagination.

Agreed.
I offered possible solution, no harm ment.
