Earn from US$300.00 to $600.00 per week! We are seeking only honest, self-motivated people from around the world with a desire to work in the home typing and data entry field, from the comfort of their own homes.
Have you seen this ad? I’ve seen this ad countless times on countless websites. They promise you everything. The Catch: There is a “One Time Non-Refundable Membership Fee” of US$15.00. The cost will cover the training materials sent to you.
A Membership Fee?
Anyone that wants to pay you $300 to $600 a week for working at home, but charge you a fee surely isn’t telling you something. Any legitimate business will not charge you a fee for entry. Surely if they want to pay you, they could at least take the shipping fee out of your paycheck. Never give money upfront.
What Opportunities are Legitimate?
Here are a few of the things to keep in mind before taking a position.
1. Unless you are extremely specialized and qualified it should take a process to get a job, no one just gives jobs to everyone unless there is a catch.
2. How specific are they about the position? Most businesses who operate in the dark won’t reveal everything about the job. They tell you the rewards, but not what you have to do to earn the rewards.
3. What are the qualifications? Does the pay seem adequate for the qualifications required?
Keep In Mind
It is not easy to make money online, most companies won’t let you work from home until you’ve worked with them for a long enough time. Talk to your company, certain positions can eventually let you do most of your work depending on what it is… Sorry Farmers, Dentists, Surgeons (they make enough money anyway…)

I fell for this in my younger days. The entire job posting didn’t provide much detail and they made you name your price, well if you don’t know what range to bid within then obviously you won’t get the job.
This is another great post Nick full of really important information
