How many of you have an experience with work as data entry/typist online from home???? Is it real this job??
It's been years, that I look for work from home as data entry/typist online. And what I found is always they ask money first before work :(( it said for administration fee, training material, etc. I just don't trust that. Do you??
Why we should pay first when we need a job isn't it. How about ur experience....

hello friends,
just register 1 account and try to bid on projects,
for example: DATA ENTRY PROJECT
DESCRIPTION PROJECT:OUR COMPANY REQUIRE A MAILING LIST U.S LAWYER, AT LEAST 1000 ENTRIES
NEEDED:NAME
ADDRESS
ZIP
CITY
COUNTRY
PHONE
FAX
E-MAIL
WEBSITE
If you bid on this project must to select the budget & delivery time.
For example i can get the dates in 3 business day, i require for this job $ 100.
I will PM the project owner and maybe offer 1 small sample for example 3 entries, for review.
If the project owner select me as service provider, than i won the project.
Before start the work i am asking for escrow payment, & release the escrow at the end of project when the owner have all dates.
After i can withdraw to paypal, moneybrokers, bank etc. All freelancers sites working same!
Hope that`s make sense!
Good luck!

If there is an upfront fee it is not a real job it is a scam. You should never have to pay for a job. I have not seen any legitmate opportunities like this. It would be nice, I would love to see if anyone has, but usually they are not legit. Best of luck.

I regret to tell you most of the data entry jobs are scams!!
If one can earn $200 per day easily,there will not be so many poor in the world~Right?
To tell the true,I have been scammed by a data entry program: 365jobs4u.com
Even though it looks very professional, once you have registered (after paying the register fee), they ignore your questions and never pay you!That's true...Be far from this site,remember..remember..(i'm being sad...haha)
And I have found a site maybe it can help you something
scamxposer.com
many real money making opportunities, and many scams for you to avoid

I joined a data entry work from home program by paying $49.45 and was directed to a directory of addresses of the companies for applying for the data entry jobs but I did not get a single response I was scammed . Similiar are the email processing ,type at home programmes nicely cloaked in a juicy sales letters what they do is to give you a pass word and user name to an unrestricted entry to a database of prospective companies which require data entry or typing job workers from home that's all and when you contact the company or the person you do not get any response for the overwhelming numbers of such companies who entice you for joining such programs have no contact link or email except the hyped sales letter with glittering promises just to deceive the common honest person So do not be ensnared by them at least I have not across any such honest company I even got swayed by paying $15.95 for email processing but did not get any response I was scammed or let us be very clear duped by the fraud Here our greed is the culprit and real mischief makers gulp the money and go scot free how to rope in such miscreants ? can any one suggest?

My internet rule is never to give any money... because if they ask for some... then something must be wrong... i have searched and searched for an online data entry job... but was never able to find one... most of the ones i found would always ask for money to be paid through credit card... and i do not want to take any risks...

Yhea me too... I encountered one site that it seems so interesting, I try to study their site and if it is legit or not, as I was thinking if it is a legit site why do they have to ask us to pay first before they will give us our job. Isn't appropriate to give us example first and if we are passed and really have to pay the first job we done must deduct in what work we have already done. Thats why I did not took that kind of job I think it is not a legit site.

I have searched for data entry jobs online for over two years and there just aren't any that are legit or are worth the time it takes to do the job. I have signed up to a few of the ones you are talking about, that have fees to join, and for me they were just scams. They make it sound so good and that is how they suck us poor people in. But not anymore as I will never pay for anything again, to make money. They are the only ones who make the money, not their members. I did get a job once from one of them, but it took me about 30 hours to do the job and I only got paid $10 for it, so it was just a waste of time, as far as I am concerned.

I am not actually sure what data entry is!!but lol if there is any money involved ,and a payment is asked for up front ,then the golden rule has to be dont go near it with a bargepole!there are so many people that will be only too happy to take your money and run,so dont even give them the chance,just steer clear and stay well away from it all.

I do not see this is a real job. I would not 'invest' even a dollar to earn online. Because it is not dependable. If at all required, one should take the money from the balance that is earned. I suggest mylotters to not fall prey to such invest and earn online opportunities. I know several of my friends are cheated by some of the online earning opportunities.
If you are intersted I can recommend a few online earning opportunities, which require no investment and 'real' earnings. Yes visit my profile, you have a few of them. I would recommend wellness360 the foremost and rest of them also. You may like to join one or all of them.
Let me know if you have any questions...by making me as your friend and message me..
Best of luck,
