There are too many work at home scams out there. The number one give away are those companies that ask you to pay for a job. I've been told to never pay just to work for someone. Jobs have always been FREE. I anyone have posted resumes' on careerbuilder or monster please be aware of the job scams. I was recently contacted by a company by the name of "Shamz Trading BV". They wanted me to cash checks that they sent to me and send them 85% of the check while I keep 10% commission for me and 5% for the company. They actually sent me a check in the mail for $3,336.00 and expected me to actually put it in my bank. I did my research and found out that they are a scam. They target innocent jobseekers as myself and want to try and get into our bank accounts. I was smarter than they thought I was because I did my extended research and found them to be scam artist. Have you experienced anything similar? Don't fall for every work at home job that comes your way. You may just end up losing more than ever.

I agree there are a lot of scams out there. I also am put off by the home business offers of we will show you how or you can get the job if you pay for our training material. Seems to me, they make money by selling the training material for $10-$30 a pop.
