Work From Home Plans: System or Scam?
More than likely you have seen them cropping up all over the
internet: work from home schemes promising participants vast
sums of money for selling a product, stuffing envelopments,
clicking ads, making phone calls, etc. The plans are as varied
as they are innovative. Unfortunately, many are scams meant to
extract cash from your wallet and certain to leave you feeling
miserable and stupid. So, just how can you make sure that a work
from home plan is legitimate? By continuing to read on for some
suggestions to help you avoid being cheated.
Better Business Bureau - Check with your local Better
Business Bureau {BBB} to determine whether the company has had
any complaints levied against it. If it is an out of state
concern, check with the BBB in the area [state] where the
company is based.
State Attorney General's Office -- Every state has an
Office of the Attorney General and in most cases it is this
office that is tasked with investigating complaints against
companies. Some states allocate this responsibility to their
Bureau of Consumer Affairs agency or similar department.
Online Forums, Blogs, etc. -- Google a search on
the internet for the company's name and narrow the results
further by including negative words such as complaint, scam,
judgment, etc. If a company is up to no good, likely that
information has been published somewhere. Caution: too much
praise about a company could be a company "plant" placed
online
to create a positive spin about their operation. Conversely, bad
news could be a single disgruntled person. Get as much
additional and independent information before making a
determination whether something you read online is actually true.
Personal Investment -- If you have to pay for the
product, i.e. to receive a list of companies providing
information work information, etc. this should be a warning flag
to you. Any outlay of cash on your part should raise some
concern.
MLM -- Some work at home businesses are nothing more than
multi level marketing [MLM] schemes. This means you make a
percentage of the sales of people you bring in to the business
below you. Not all MLM schemes are illegal...unethical may be
another matter!
In all, exercise extreme caution before agreeing to any work
from home plan. If a work from home plan sounds too good to be
true, than likely it is false. Ask hard questions and do not
sign a contract before letting a legal professional [of your
choice] review the plan.
