The Top 10 Things to Avoid
and How to
Spot a Scam Now!
We're
not going to tell you specific programs to avoid but rather give
you tips on things to think about that will help you make the
right
decision for yourself. The truth is that, for the most part most
programs work for some people at least some of the
time, but there is no one perfect program
that works for absolutely everyone
all of the time.
So, what should you avoid and
How
do you Spot a Scam?
Those
Work from Home Programs or Work at Home Opportunities That Have Not
Been Reviewed by a Person You Feel You Can Trust
A
good rule of thumb here is that it is always good to get the opinion of
someone in the know and, particularly, someone you trust. The Internet
is a vast place and there are people everywhere offering their opinion.
You WILL be able to find someone who you can trust. In general, if they
offer their support after you purchase a program they recommend, that
is an excellent sign. If they don't, run as far as you can in the
opposite direction.
The
Scam-Scam!
What
is the Scam-Scam. There are over 7 million Internet listings for Work
from Home and Work at Home Scams. There are, indeed, scams, but even
more people taking advantage of people trying to avoid scams by
tricking them into thinking they are reading an honest scam review. The
tell-tale sign is someone who titles a web page or a blog page with the
word "scam" or "scams" and essentially tricks their readers into
reading what they have to say. At the end of their ad copy of course
(and that is exactly what it is) they have a call-to-action for you to
purchase a work from home program or work at home opportunity from
them. Buyer-Beware! This person really had no intention of informing
you about a scam but getting you to buy their program.
The
No-Involvement/No Support Programs or People
If
a work at home opportunity or work from home program or individual
indicates that there is no support, run! Does this happen? Yes! In
fact, there are people who promote a program or opportunity explicitly
stating that they have chosen an opportunity or program BECAUSE they
just don't want to take the time to provide support and their
opportunity allows them to do that! Think about it!
What have you ended up with? You just purchased an opportunity or work
from home program and then what? Everyone has questions and needs
support. The reality, as well, is that the primary program
administrators simply cannot provide you with the one-to-one support
most people want or need from time to time. So, our advice is this ...
once again, RUN. Everyone needs someone sometime!
The
Big-Ticket Items
Ok. For some people these
do work, but for most they simply don't work at all. We have 3
big-ticket opportunities that we promote but not directly because they
simply don't work for most people. Ask yourself if you are the kind of
person who has a "big sales" personality and, if the answer is "no" you
might do much better with some other type of opportunity.
Who
do they work for? Just the "big sales" people? No. There are others:
People who do not mind doing videos and audios as
well as directly personally promoting themselves do well with these
big-ticket home business opportunities. Most anyone who wants to hide
in any way behind their computer will not do well. The bottom line is
that 99.87% of all big-ticket item purchasers will not purchase from
someone who they do not talk to and haven't seen in one form or
another. And, even when they do purchase, most people don't come close
to even recouping the their investment.
Incentivized
Websites
Incentivized
websites that pay you for referrals or for signups do work for some
people but just keep in mind that you will be promoting opportunities
that are often woven into websites with phishing scams and take
advantage of people who simply don't understand the offer. Yes, you can
make money on referrals, but who wants to do this to other people?
Don't get us wrong here! There are a few legitimate programs out there
that use incentivized websites but the majority are merely money-offer
games and scams.
"It's 100%
Automated!"
Yep!
Right! :) It's amazing to us how many people still fall for this line.
There are, in fact, some opportunities that are extremely automated home based
businesses as
well as people who promote systems
that make home business
opportunities even more automated :) but nothing is 100%
automated...
period. We like to look at it this way: there are some programs that
are like having a automatic car and others that are like having a
chauffer. We like to think of ourselves as people who promote the
chauffers or teach people how to get one. Either way, you will need to
do something to make it go! If you've got a bit of "go get it," we
seriously recommend using it with The Work at Home
Insider. We are sure you will be delighted with the
Work
at Home Insider results!
"It's Instant Cash!"
Ok,
there are in fact some incredible programs that allow people to make
some very significant quick cash, but nothing is instant. The 3HourProfits
program is one of the best examples of fairly immediate income
possibilities. Instant
Cash for Newbies is another excellent rebutable program
attracting increasing interest.
Once again,
think about this like having an automatic car or chauffer. No matter
how much gas you have and how fast you drive, you simply can't get
across the country instantaneously. You can get very far in a day or
even an hour, but it will take some time to get the kind of cash that
most people dream about when looking into home businesses.
Paid Survey Programs
Paid
Survey
programs attract many people because, on the surface, they seem free or
very inexpensive
and do have the potential to generate considerable cash. They do, in
fact, work for some people and still others make a considerable amount
of money with the right ones. However, just like incentivized website
programs, there are more work at home scams and phishing scams for Paid
Survey
than in most other areas. You simply have to be very careful and, once
again,
make sure you are getting advice from someone you trust. The other good
rule of thumb here is to make sure you are a very organized person.
Have a system!
In order to be successful with these programs you have to (1) have the
right Paid
Survey or Free
Online Paid Survey Program, Get Paid for program or programs
(2) have an organized system and most of all (3) follow through! If
you can do all three, you will do fine. Otherwise, avoid them like the
plague! Statistics show that the people making the most money from
theprograms are the people that promote the products and services
through these programs. In fact, literally millions are made each year
for these big companies.
Data Entry and
Clerical Programs
Please Refer to our notes
on Survey Programs for starters. Once again, in
order to be successful with Data
Entry Programs you have to (1) have the
right programs (2) have an organized system and (3) follow through! If
you can do all three, you will do fine. Otherwise, avoid them like the
plague! Statistics show that the people making the most money from
these programs are the people that promote the products and services
through these programs. In fact, literally millions are made each year
for these big companies. We have found one data entry program that has
attracted about a quarter of a million people a month and
that is Data
Entry Made Easy. The company behind Data
Entry Made Easy has been around for about 8 years,
is established and reputable. It is not at all uncommon for individuals
to earn several hundred if not four figures a week and some have even
consistently made five figures a month wit Data
Entry Made Easy.
"Free" Work at Home
Programs
Once
again, there are some fantastic programs that initially offer free
ebooks or software for you to review. We represent the ones that have
passed our scrutiny and review. In fact, there are some people
that simply take the ideas in these ebooks and never pay for the
program itself, doing well with the ideas. These individuals are few
and far between but they do exist. The bottom line warning here is for
those programs that state they are 100% free.
The truth, as we all know
it, is that nothing is for free. A program or
opportunity could not exist if someone somewhere was not making money.
So, just keep this in mind. The good rule of thumb here is to look at
these programs as a try before you invest any significant amount of
money. Get the CD or information. Even if it costs you a few dollars,
our experience is that you gain a tremendous amount from these programs
and offers.
We use and
personally recommend the following:
Read them thoroughly and ask
yourself if you could get excited about what they have to offer. The
fact is that there are a
few of these programs that do quite well simply because people know
this and like to try before they invest into any work at home
opportunity or work from home business program.
Now. . . The reason many of you
