Well they have for smart people. Maybe, my choice of words are a little harsh. After all yours truly has been taken for a  ride a few times which cost me over $500. So it’s not that I’m saying you lack some sort of intelligence. You must be pretty smart, otherwise you wouldn’t be on this blog or one of our loyal subscribers.

I guess what I’m trying to say is that most of us are very ignorant or naive when it comes to work at home opportunities and the scams associated with them. If you’re totally new to the work at home scene I fear for you the most because you’re an easy target. Con artist prey on you like a sleazy guy preys on drunk women at a bar during happy hour. Either way someone is going to lose something and it’s probably going to be you.

Then there are those of you who have been around the block a few times and possibly been scammed. Sadly some of you have allowed these negative experiences to cloud your judgement and you’re now more jaded than a broken glass bottle.

Where ever you are in that spectrum, I’m going to hook you up. I’m a big believer that an educated work at home seeker is the best work at home seeker. Yeah that’s my own variation of the Sym’s mantra so sue me. But seriously we’ve created a video on How To Spot A Work At Home Scam Using Google.com on our parent site WorkAtHomeCareers.com.

Watch the Video, Absorb it, Use the techniques and most importantly share it with others. It’s a lot harder to scam people when everyone is in the know. And this video puts you in the know. So stop being a dummy, I mean ignorant about work at home scams. Use what I teach you in the video to research any opportunities you were considering.

You don’t need me or anyone else to help you figure out if a company is a scam. You have all the tools you need right in front of you. Don’t get me wrong I love answering your questions and encourage them. But some things you’ll be able to figure out in a matter of minutes using the video below. So if all of sudden I’m no longer here, you’ll still be able to fend yourself. So enjoy. By the way if you enjoy the video, join our YouTube.com subscription page, vote for us and share the video. That’s all we ask in return for providing this free information.

If that’s too rich for your blood then I totally understand you cheap bastard. Just kidding. Cheers!

    Every day I receive countless emails about how I can get rich in 24 hours or make $5000 a week and so on and so forth.
    Most of the emails I do a read over and delete.
    If I receive an email for an opportunity which I have not heard about, well the first thing I do is type (”name of opportunity” scam) in my favorite search engine and see what comes up.
    If nothing comes up, then I try (”name of opportunity” review) to see if anything comes up.
    90% of the time I am discovering unfavorable reports and reviews on opportunities which I had not heard about until it arrived in my email.
    So many people are being duped out of money they cannot afford to waste.
    You can prevent this from happening to you by practicing due diligence in your opportunity scam research!

    Colleen,

    Thanks for reminding me about the trick using the keyword “review”. I totally forgot to mention in my video above. So everyone in addition to the scam keyword technique I mentioned in the video, please follow Colleen’s advice and do the same search with the keyword review.

    But a warning about that technique though, there are some shady affiliate marketers that create fake reviews. So keep in mind what I said in the video in terms of looking for patterns. If one review is saying that a given opportunity is the best thing since sliced bread but all your other research says it’s a dud then that pretty much tells you all that you need to know.

    Colleen, thanks for the additional tip.

    Eddy:

    I just finished watching your 1st video on “How to Spot A Scam”. It was the information I was looking for.

    I’ve been thinking of signing up with a company that I thought was legit. I checked Google and sure enough there were complaints about the company - Advanced Billing Network. I also checked with Better Business Bureau and they know about the company and advise that they are a bad risk.

    Thanks again and is it possible to email me the other videos about recognizing scams.

    Hi Ginny,

    I’m glad you used the techniques in the video and avoided a possible scam. When we create new videos we’ll be sure to post them here on this blog. So as long as you’re a subscriber, you’re all set.

    But honestly this video is all you need. The techniques I showed you in the video is what I’ve been using for years. So just keep following it and you should be fine.

    Feel free to share the video with others.
