Warning – Home Typing Scams
I personally have been earning my living on the Internet by typing or website designing. There are Home Typing scams but today they are few and far between. Further on in this article I will give some pointers as to how you can work out if it is real or a fake.
Medical Billing Scam
If you are asked to pay for billing software, take this as a warning sign about a scam and surf on.
Craft Assembly
How does this work? You are sent a pack to make crafts from I.e. wool to make scarves. Once made ‘they’ claim you can sell the completed items and make a profit but be warned you will be competing against places like China and you are likely to be left with many of the items yourself. What is worse, some scams ask you to send the items back to them for a quality check which you are likely to fail and therefore you never see the items or your payment again.
How to sniff out a scam
Some measures have been put in place on the Internet to protect you but here are some questions you could ask yourself to sniff out a scam:
Does the company have a website?
What is the quality of the website?
Is it well explained and is there a lot of information available?
Are there any testimonials and do they have pictures and contact details?
Does it offer video or other training?
Is there a money back guarantee? If so does it have a big black and gold logo giving the timescale for the guarantee? Does it simply offer a lifetime guarantee? If the company is paid via Clickbank/PayPal or PayDotCom you will ALWAYS be able to get your money back in 60 days.
You can also look out for other organisations that have trust logos on their website. They come in various shapes and sizes so be diligent and look carefully.
Do your research, we have done ours and found a few sites that are not scams.
Another method for sniffing out scams is common sense. If the deal seems too good to be true it probably is. For instance earning $25,000 in three months is probably a scam. There is no way easy way to make big money fast.
