9 SCAMs in Work at Home to Avoid - By: Pavel

These are the top scams that have been identified by the (U.S.) Federal Trade Commission as the most likely to arrive via email:

1. Business Opportunities: Pyramid schemes mostly disguised as illegal opportunities to earn money. It looks for high returns with little or no effort or cash outlay required and makes money by recruiting members into the program without giving anything of equal value in exchange for membership fees which is scam.
But MLM (multi-level marketing schemes) are NOT pyramid schemes because they involve the sale of products and services in return for membership.
2. Bulk Email: Offers of lists of thousands of email addresses all of whom, of course, are just dying to receive your marketing message. What to look for: "Bulk Email Works! 10,000 addresses for $9.99."
3. Chain Letters: Send $5 to the next name on the list then cross the bottom name off the list, replace it with your own, then forward the letter to 500 of your nearest and dearest. What to look for: A jail cell. This is a pyramid scheme and is illegal. The letter goes to great pains to say that it is not illegal. Nigerian chain letter is common.
4. Envelope Stuffing: Think you're going to be paid for stuffing envelopes? Think again. You get a kit that you can turn around to recruit others to an envelope stuffing scam of your very own! Watch out for craft assembly work as well. You'll probably find all of your hard work is not up to their exacting "quality standards" and therefore you won't get paid for your work.
5. Health and Diet Scams: Magic pills that eradicate the need to eat fewer calories than you expend in order to lose weight. They don't work.
6. Free Goods: You're told you'll get a free computer. You have to pay a fee to join a club and then told you have to recruit other members. You get paid in computers. They're nothing but pyramid schemes.

7. Guaranteed Loans or Credit: Pay a fee and you're given a list of lenders, all of whom turn you down. Credit cards never arrive.
8. Credit Repair: No matter how bad your credit, pay these people and they'll fix it. They generally just advise you how to lie on future credit applications - how to commit fraud in other words.
9. Vacation Prize Promotions: Your accommodations will be so bad you'll want to pay for an upgrade. You'll probably have to pay to schedule a vacation at the time you want as well.
