subject: Don't Work From Home Until You Read This [print this page] You might think you would never fall for a work at home scam, but you might be surprised! These scams keep popping up because people really do fall for them every day. Work at home moms are most often targeted in order to play on their hopes of staying home with their families. Why not make easy money while doing it?
That's the first rule to remember to avoid work at home scams. If it promises easy money, be careful! If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Work at home businesses are just like any other business, and you have to put a lot of effort into them to make the big bucks. If someone promises you will make thousands of dollars every week, they are probably trying to hook you.
If any work at home business asks you to spend money to start working, that's a big red flag! Don't ever spend money to get information on a home-based business. If they are a legitimate business, they will send you all the information you need to get started. There are some businesses, such as Mary Kay or Avon, that require you to buy a small kit to get started - but these are not scams, considering how long they have been in business.
That leads us to another point to remember when avoiding work from home scams. Check into the company! Talk to people who have worked for the company, and get their verdict on whether or not it really works to make money. If the business is legitimate, there will be several people willing to talk about their experiences, and you will have the peace of mind you need to move forward with the job.
Work at home moms are big targets for these scams. Protect yourself with a little common sense and be sure to watch for those red flags! Don't let a work at home scam take away all the good paychecks you so richly deserve.
