We hear from a lot of people looking for work-at-home opportunities and we
thought we would share some advice.
Firstly, do not buy any books or pay money to subscribe to any work-at-home
Websites. From what people have told us, the listings are either bogus or
the companies listed are so besieged by people writing, calling and e-mailing,
that any job they originally had was grabbed a long time ago.
Secondly, do not pay for any training or equipment in the hopes of getting
work. We have heard of scams where companies are really selling transcribing
equipment or envelope-stuffing supplies and they never deliver on the
work-at-home jobs they promise.
To be quite honest, there are very few legitimate work-at-home jobs. There
are lots of jobs people can do at home, but getting them is difficult. Most
people who work from home work for themselves, in businesses they have created
themselves, or have convinced employers to let them work from home after
years of excellent work.
