It's probably a scam. This is how my email went.

*** Please disregard this email if you have already completed the survey and we sincerely appreciate your responses. Thank you!

Hello,

We're collecting feedback about our virtual reality experiences and products. You've been selected to take a survey because you're a valued Meta Quest owner.

The survey asks questions about your experiences with your Oculus avatar and should take about 5-10 minutes to complete. We will be collecting responses until July 22. Qualtrics, an independent research firm, is sending this survey to you on our behalf.

The feedback we receive from this survey together with information about how you use Oculus will help us improve our products. We'll collect and use your data in accordance with our Oculus Data Use Policy.

Follow this link to the Survey:

Or copy and paste the URL below into your internet browser:

Thanks,
The Oculus Research Team

If you don't want to receive a research email from Oculus, you can unsubscribe here. For any questions or concerns, visit the Facebook Help Center or email us at fbsurvey@fb.com.

If anything it's probably just an IP grabber, or some information grabber. I don't recommend clicking any of these surveys.
