someone sent me this question. Are all job offers to use your computer, and work from home SCAMS ? I had thousands checked and here is what I found. Make money taking surveys SCAM. We'll pay you to read books. SCAM. We'll pay you to put machines together. SCAM ETC. . Can anyone come up with one make money from home, working on your computer jobs which is not a SCAM ? Also anyone have a perpetual motion machines I can borrow ? (smile)

Probably not all of them, but I bet most are. Heck I can't even find a job to apply for when I even LOOK online because even regular jobs that don't involve computers are worded in a way where practically all of them sound fake. It's like this dating site... all of these idiot scammers ruin things and need to get a life.

If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. I see it like this...it was a legitimate job, I think a ton of us would be very wealthy right now -- but are we?

I'm sure some of them are, but a lot of them aren't.

I worked for one that you did customer service from home for big company catalogs, took customer orders, inquiries, etc. that was here in Colorado. I'm sure other states have it, too. It was 100% legitimate.

I would have to venture to say that most are. You really need to do some thorough research if you are considering this route. Good luck.........

If you were doing customer service. You had a job. That dosen't mean that people the people taking survey's were making any money.

I think that I owe you an apology. I didn't realize you were saying that you worked for this company on your computer from home ?

I think a lot of the internet job listings are a scam. Something to draw someone in for some other purpose. It's kind ol like those things you get and if you fill out a survey you will gat a 500 dollar Walmart Gift Card. I went through one of those and about half way through were some magazines you had to subscribe to and if you didn't subscribe the survey ended. Big "come on" to get magazine subscriptions. Getting a Walmart Gift Card? I doubt it. So if you see one of these adds....forget it!

Remember Houdini's search for a real seer, to find his dead Mother. As I say I',ve looked at thousands of these things and haven't found one where there wasn't a catch, which stopped you from getting whatever was promised.
