in these tough economic times ,many of us are looking for work to make ends meet .the internet is great globle marketplace for different types of work which can be done at home ,freelance wrting ,editing ,data entry ,blogging ,forum posting ,homr-based call center and alot more .isnt it great -to avoid office environment and wear your pajamas as a uniform ?
the internet is very convenient for job hunting because you can find vacancies in different vacancies in diferent parts of the country and even the world .your new employer can be from usa ,british ,france ,australia ,china or hungary .however the same feature makes the internet a very effective tool for fraudulent activity .that is why looing for decent project jobs onlian ,you can become a victim of scammers .
increasing unemployment makes job hunters more and more desperate .if you have been out of work for a long time ,you can be ready for any kind of work .it can make you lose the commen sense .scammers are captilizing on job seekers'desperation .beware of online job scams inorder to protect yourself and your money !

Thats actually not very new, most of those sites online are really scams. Its just that they are becoming more active now due to the downturn of the economy. Most of them are just taking advantage that most people are becoming more desperate to earn at least something online. They know that people would do almost anything in this time just to earn online and they are really on the move in taking advantage of these people.
All i can say is that, before you even join a site to earn better do a lot of research and hear about other peoples comments on the site to be sure that the site really pays and is not a scam. I think its much safer that way.. :)hehe

For a month I search jobs on the net. I'm very careful not to be scam by the sites who asking money to have a job. Now that the money is difficult I don't want to be a victim of them. We can also find sites that we can earn like mylot. I believe there are some honest and scam free sites but it's hard to find them.

You are so right about all of the scams on the Internet. I try to be very careful about the different sites I get involved with. Luckily I have only encountered one that didn't work out. I am constantly looking for new things to do on the Internet, as I had to quit my full time job about 5 years ago because I have a very bad back. I do not make a lot of money, but what I do make helps a lot. I look for sites that have been around for a while, and that other people have already tried. I hope someday I will find something that pays better. Surely there is something legit out there that pays a nice salary...but I haven't found it yet.
