I worked for many years at the BBB. We took several complaints against companies that fell in the work at home category. With all the years dealing with this subject I have never heard of one company that really provides you with work. They make their money by getting you to send in a "deposit" for the materials. These scams are illegal and it is very tough to find the "company" to get your money back once you have paid. They use maildrops and change their phone number often. My best advice is find something else. Good luck!

Most people who work at home and are successful are doing one of two things - getting paid a commission on everyone they convince to join the program (also known as MLM or pyramid plans) OR they have their own business. Your own business is something you create yourself, not find on the internet. You create it based on your skills, your passions not on what someone else tells you is the GREATEST thing going.\n\nIf you are looking at one of the endless "opportunities" out there be careful - most are scams. Here are a few questions you should ask to help figure out if the one you are looking at is for real or not.\n\nLegitimate work-at-home program should tell you - in writing - what's involved in the program they are selling. Here are some questions you might ask:\n\n* What tasks will I have to perform? (Ask the program to list every step of the job.)\n* Will I be paid a salary or will my pay be based on commission?\n* Who will pay me?\n* When will I get my first paycheck?\n* What is the total cost of the work-at-home program, including supplies, equipment and membership fees?\n* What will I get for my money?

I completely sympathize. I actually am at home now, out on Medical leave since September, and my prescriptions are quite costly also. I've done a lot of research on the internet for work at home jobs, and honestly all I have found have been scams. I did however pick up a book at my local bookstore, called "The work at home source-book", and they have hundreds of work at home opportunities, some of them as simple as light assembly, or stuffing envelopes. I'm also going to get some information about selling on e-bay, since I have heard that most people can make a very lucrative income without much energy output. I hope that helps. I will have u in my prayers and thoughts. Good Luck.

I've always wondered what kind of work, exactly, you'd be doing at home.. I think it's most likely a complete scam, used to sucker people into things. Maybe they want you to pay money upfront and you get cheated.

Not ALL are scams.. but you shouldn't have to pay to work for an employer. The minute I see dollar signs I turn the other way and RUN!! I currently work from home as an independent contractor for www.liveops.com (dont know if they are hiring or not) but I LOVE it!! I didnt not have to pay a cent. The requirements are listed on the website and its fun and easy!

Most places want their call center agents to be under their direct supervision, so if you need help...it's readily available.  You will not find a legitimate call center agent job that allows you to work at home.  Just not feasible.  They can't track your hours, or your proficiency.  So how would they pay you?  They wouldn't.  Work at home call center agent = scam.  End of story.

The best work-at-home idea is starting your own business.  That is not something you find on the internet - but something you create on your own.\n\nLegitimate work-at-home program should tell you - in writing - what's involved in the program they are selling. Here are some questions you might ask:\n\n    * What tasks will I have to perform? (Ask the program to list every step of the job.)\n    * Will I be paid a salary or will my pay be based on commission?\n    * Who will pay me?\n    * When will I get my first paycheck?\n    * What is the total cost of the work-at-home program, including supplies, equipment and membership fees?\n    * What will I get for my money?

Yes there are. I know someone who actually makes a nice living answering online surveys. She actually gets paid to answer them. I can't tell you where to sign up, cause she won't tell me. I have watched her filling them out and then a window comes and tells her what that survey pays. I watched her do  5 surveys in about an hour and a half. Two paid $100 ea. and two paid $75 ea. and one paid $45. She was mad about the low paying one. After these five she quit for a couple of days. Just as the other answer, be careful when you check them out. My friend says the legit ones will not ask for any money from you.\n\nThe company she does this for had her fill out an application and then did a background check. When they decided she was legit they sent her an email.\n\nAs she says if they want money from you, they're crooks.\n\nGood luck.

Honestly I have been looking for the same thing. I have been on the net for the past 4 months looking for honest work at home info. Through trial and error and lots and lots of research, I've found very few honest companies. I have a list that I have made myself. e-mail me and I'll send it to you for free ( I usually charge $6.00)!! adisa_charles@yahoo.com

Most of your valid work at home jobs are going to be providing services on the internet.\n1. Copy Writer\n2. Graphic Designer / Web Designer\n3. Programmer\n4. Selling a product through a website. This can be a product you make, a product you buy locally, or a product someone else makes that you "drop ship".\n5. Creating websites that generate traffic on which you can sell advertising space (Yahoo's Overture is a great program for this.) See \n6. Search Engine Optimization services\n7. Scams (Selling guides, systems, etc.)\n8. Pornography (I don't recommend this one, but it is very profitable.)\n9. 100s of other things that can be sold online.\n\nIn my experience, a talented copy writer is very hard  to find (This means you would be in demand.) and can demand top pay once they are established.  However, getting established can take some time and effort.\n\nGood luck.
