Tips on how to tell a scam from a legitimate work from home opportunity – Part 3
3) When you find an opportunity for working at home through an email, a website, print publication, TV, postal mail or even a friend, check it out. Do your research before you even consider sending a company money. I highly recommend Googling the company name, checking them out at www.scam.com , or at the online Better Business Bureau at www.bbb.org .
4) Usually if they’re advertising themselves as being a “legitimate work at home job,” they’re anything but that. Legitimate work at home jobs don’t have to state this in order to get qualified employees.
5) Does the company webpage provide contact information, like an e-mail address, address and / or phone number at the bottom? If it’s a scam site / scan company, the most they give you in the way of contacting them is a support form that you enter your request to avoid them having to give out their contact information.
