In that last part we discussed the 5 top home business scams online today. I wanted to warn you to avoid these scams if you ever come across these scams or home business promoters associated with these scams. The next step is to learn how to distinguish between scams and legitimate home business opportunities. Although these aren't sure fire guarantees, you'll be able to weed out about 95% of scams from legitimate home business opportunities and with that probability, you shouldn't have too much to worry about.

Okay, here goes:

1) The first thing you want to look at is the offer being made to you. Do you know what you're actually getting into? Look at the FAQs and see if the program is actually explained to you. There are many programs out there that are sold on total hype. You need answer to 3 things here. What is the company selling, or doing? What would you have to do to make any money? How much will it cost to you overall? There are many companies that will charge you extra for different things, or tell you that you need to upgrade to get the “actual” benefits of the program. You want to stay away from something that doesn't clarify all this.

I need all those above information to get an idea about how much money these guys have collected, so once the scam busted we can try to distribute the money back to the users. The same way scam solid investment was busted 2 years back. In solid investment case the customers had to wait for one year to get their money back since people came to know about the scam

hi leo, To run around 400 website, its better to have a webspace. Today you will get unlimited web space for unlimited domains. check out one at www.ixwebhosting.com it costs around $12 per month, which is nothing in front of $15000. Never think to get rich in one night, it really needs hard work in the starting. You have to understand what you are doing. what websites you are creating, whether people like it or not...whether its informative or not. its designs, content, keywords, heading around 65 things are there on which you have to look up. Who says go with 400 websites in the starting, .... go with one...today i'm giving my full time to my 400 websites which are from forum, and on every topic, i put contents which are service oriented, and solution base, and totally free...because everyone wants free..:-)... In the starting, i use to advertise my sites on blogs, forums, classifieds, directory like..but now its not required...they get traffics automatically... Another thing on

Hi Arvind, You've mentioned that you earn arounf $15,000 p.m. This is just to good to be true but considering that you have around 400 websites, it may make sense. Adding data onto those sites is no problem but the thing is, how are you promoting your websites ? Can you give some hints thanks. Also do you purchase web space and domain names or do you just get space from msn or blogger.com ? Thankyou

yes i do agree. All home job sites are just bogus. Not a single site, i have found who pays clients. might be they pay 1-2 months, but from 3rd month nothing. i'm a regular net surfer and i search every home job site...either they make you join for data entry which eventually turns out to be something where you have to join adwords and post their ads... As one fellow friend said here...better go for adsense, work for yourself, atleast here you are sure of earning, or check out some of the freelance sites, where you post your expertise and clients will contact you. Another option is go to www.liveperson.com --- go to -- experts section. Here register yourself and solve clients problem, you will be paid what you want. Its a live chat.. and clients will pay you for every minute.

I feel really angry for anybody who's been scammed by these people. I'm looking for internet opportunities to make some money and it's so hard to find genuine ones that you can trust, and that will actually pay you. I just wanted to add that I don't think this company have any right to critise any of you for making mistakes when their own message is so full of grammatical errors. That's really not very professional of them and just makes them look even worse. I know that's no consolation to anyone who's been duped, but I just wanted to add it.

i think its really very difficult to find something genuine and putting money. www.zenithinfoonline.com www.hylinemgmt.com www.easypostingjobs.com www.typeinternational.com ALL ARE COMPLETE SCAMS... I recommend everyone here is instead of working for them, work for yourself. Start your own adsense site. Its very easy, spend sometime on internet and learn to create simple website. put adsense codes and see the earnings. I'm earning around $5000+p.m. in adsense, my sites are 5 years old... it will take time around 2 months to get pickup...but worth compared to above sites.

Recently i registered with www.hylinemgmt.com and www.typeinternational.com They all gave me just ad posting work. I'm not sure whether they are going to pay me or not. Is anyone having any type of bad experience with them Is anyone scammed by them... let me know so that i should stop working with them

Zenith forex Enterprises is nothing, but google adsense They provide you the worst things. First thing is that they are not scholars, not professionals to create sites. they will just give you zip file of pages, and ask you to create yourself sites, by buying domain, hosting. they even don't know how to write email addresss,,, shocked yes...shocked they write email like this www.info@zenithinfoonline.com so beware of this site i agree with meshan its a scam site
