Your reply was priceless. I am bombard...Love it!! Your reply was priceless. I am bombarded with unsolicited emails from con artists on a daily basis. Unfortunately, I was recently laid off and ever since I started job hunting the emails have gotten worse. The vultures on the internet are relentless. <br />As consumers, we are constantly bombarded with advertisements, business opportunities, and product offers that are, quite frankly, appealing. After all, wouldn't you like to know how an individual can "earn money stuffing envelopes at home?" <br />It seems like everywhere you turn that someone is trying to scam us out of our hard-earned cash.<br />It is often difficult trying to weed out the legitimate offers from the scams and the rip-offs. Here are a few of the scams and rip-offs that I have come to recognize over the last few weeks as I have been earnestly searching for career securement. Since I am a mother of three boys most of my scams seem to be directed toward mothers, especially stay at home moms.<br />Here are a few scams that have been coming to my emails regularly.<br />Parents Beware<br />1. Numerous Pyramid Marketing (Network Marketing) Schemes: The one thing they forget to tell you when they show you that person who is holding a check for $300,000.00 that he/she made in just nine months is they are one of a very microscopic minority. But they tell you: “Talk to a few people who talk to a few people” and before you know it, you’ve got an MLM Empire and you’re lying on a tropical beach sipping Pina Coladas! Real Network Marketing is a lot of blood, sweat and tears. There is a group of Network Markers that have an organization within themselves with sophisticated database management systems, lead capture pages and auto responders. These people go to different organizations and make it to the top over and over again. I guess this select group figured out how to make millions. Google them they are all over the internet with countless pages and different links.<br />I AM NOT saying that all Network Marketing Companies are scams. There are some good Christian based companies out there. But Beware!!<br />2. Envelope Stuffing<br />3. Paid Online Surveys<br />4. Paid Online Bloggers<br />5. Child Modeling Scams<br />6. Assemble Products at Home<br />7. Invention Submission Companies<br />8. Watch this 15 Minute Video and make $1500.00 TODAY!! (This was today’s)<br /><br />I thought I would put this out there. Your blog obviously hit home with me. While I believe that the internet is one of the best inventions ever made, it has also opened another new world of crime trade.<br />Maybe we wouldn’t have a 16 trillion national debt if more people would try to find honest jobs instead of making a dishonest living scamming people on the internet.<br /><br />Heather Tyrehttp://www.linkedin.com/pub/heather-tyre/48/ba/247noreply@blogger.com
