Work-at-home schemes...Get Rating Widget!

Overall Rating:4.80 based on 5 ratings
ItemImage"The scam: You'll pay a small fee to get started in the envelope-stuffing business. Then, you'll learn that the email sender never had real employment to offer. Instead, you'll get instructions on how to send the same envelope-stuffing ad in your own bulk emailings. If you earn any money, it will be from others who fall for the scheme you're perpetuating. And after spending the money and putting in the time on the craft assembly work, you are likely to find promoters who refuse to pay you." FTC

I have to admit I fell for one a few years ago. It still is a popular dental insurance site on the internet. I'm sure some of these people do make a decent living at it but not before really sticking their neck out and putting out the dough. At first it was just purchasing the initial package, then the biz cards, then extra brochures, etc. I'd be willing to bet most people give up like I did before they ever make their first sale. It's because of fools like I was that the place is still up and running. To top this off, they don't even really cover the entire dental. It turns out, it's just a few minor procedures like fillings and most offices don't recognize it on their list of insurers.

Wow...you mean I could be making thousands a week just by ASSEMBLING PRODUCTS AT HOME? What a farce.

When I was a naive and poor student I actually got on the phone with one of these once ... wow, what an experience THAT was. When I learned you had to pay THEM to get the kit with which you would get rich, I just laughed and hung up. If it worked that well, why didn't they just use it to get rich themselves?

This is another shameful scam. Even if they are legitimate things which come in the letter box, I never trust any work from home schemes. Why would an employer go to all that trouble of making you work from home? Because they don't want to pay you the normal income and it is cheap labour. Work from home gives me a red alert feeling and plays on our laziness. If you want money, go and work hard because he that slumbers will go hungry (Proverbs.)

The old saying if it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is... applies here!
