It’s no surprise that so many people are becoming interested in working at home. With gas prices obscenely high, and the economy on seriously shaky ground, who wouldn’t like to cut the daily commute out of the budget? I’ve read on forums about people who are buying $250 worth of gas a week just to [...]

I’ve received quite a few comments on my post about Payment Processing Jobs from people with first-hand experience with these scams. To say this type of con is alive and well is an understatement. Most of the commenters were people who were considering taking such a job, but once they became better informed, decided against it. [...]

I meant to post this some time ago, but life kept getting in the way. I’ve been receiving some emails claiming to be from employers going through CareerBuilder.com, saying that they saw my resume and would like to hire me. They were pretty convincing, and if it weren’t for the fact that I’ve never posted [...]

I was replying to a comment today, and was going to direct the reader to the scam resources in my sidebar.

Firstly, let me apologize for not posting anything in ages. I have finally gotten my home business going full-time, but not without some major obstacles in the way. I’ve been a very busy lady and just haven’t had the time to devote to exposing scams. Hopefully that will change soon. Now, on to business. I’ve been [...]

I’ve been getting a lot of bounced emails lately. It wouldn’t be a big deal, except they are ones that I did not send. After inspecting a few of them and finding that the attached emails were spam, I got worried. I thought that despite all of my efforts to keep my computer secure and free [...]

There is no shortage of scammers out there who want your money. But there are just as many, if not more, who are dying for your email address. Spam comes in many forms, about many subjects. A substantial amount of it is trying to sell prescription drugs and other such spam-typical stuff. But there’s also plenty [...]

Buying an established website is a great option for those wishing to work from home. If you’ve got the cash to put into it, you can get a site that already has content and an audience. Then your biggest concern is adding fresh content and keeping the visitors coming back for more. As with any work [...]
