GUARANTEED WAYS TO PROTECT YOURSELF FROM 99% OF ALL DATA ENTRY AND STUFFING ENVELOPE SCAMS.

The envelope stuffing scam… the order processing scam… the medical transcription scam… the medical billing scam… the email processor scam and many others. While real home-based employment opportunities are hard to find the scams are everywhere.

Follow these three easy rules to protect yourself from 99% of all current work from home scams:

Data Entry and Envelope Stuffing

Any real envelope stuffing job is going to be located within driving distance of your home and probably won’t cost you a single penny to start. But if you’re unwilling to reject all those other envelope stuffing offers that appear in your mail boxes and magazine ads you can still eliminate virtually all envelope stuffing scams with one simple action: Call directory assistance. Virtually 100% of all envelope stuffing scams are not listed with directory assistance under the name they advertise under in the city they claim they are located in. The same is true for all the other similar scams, the order processing, data entry, and email processing scams. If these companies aren’t even stable enough to invest in a simple business telephone number under the name they’re advertising, why would you trust them enough to give them an order?

Medical transcription and medical billing scams.

In past years the government has come down hard on companies promising work at home medical transcription jobs and medical billing jobs for people who are willing to invest in their training programs and/or software. Often the people who fell for these scams lost hundreds or even thousands of dollars, not thirty or forty dollars like other scams, only to find that after they spent their hard-earned money on the training and/or software, they couldn’t get a work at home job. If you are interested in obtaining training for medical transcription and/or medical billing, follow rule #1 before investing in any company. If they do have a business phone under their name in the city they’re advertising under, check them out with consumer agencies like the Better Business Bureau, and if that checks out, obtain written confirmation of any promises that you will be able to get a job in your field from home. Be sure you fully understand your prospects of getting a job after the training and get it in writing!

And for Goodness Sakes,
Run all offers past your God-given common sense test.

You have your own remarkable weapon to combat work at home scams: it’s your own intelligence! If you’re a female, you’ve got an added weapon that almost nothing can penetrate and it’s called your feminine intuition. (It may have been made unpopular in the sixties and seventies but it works just as well as it ever did!) The only reason these scams are so successful is because people abandon their better judgment because of their own greed or desperation. Learn to listen to your common sense. Pass any advertised work at home offer past your own common sense test. Would an employer hire people they know nothing about to do ANY job? No, of course not. Does it make good business sense for a company to pay someone eight dollars to simply stuff one envelope or process one email? Of course not. Are book publishers going to pay you hundreds of dollars to simply read books? Of course not.

Consumer agencies are almost totally worthless when it comes to detecting the worst of all work at home scams so follow these simple guidelines and rely on yourself. You’ll find that you can protect yourself from almost all work from home scams so you can spend your time and energy pursuing real work from home employment opportunities that will meet the needs of you and your family.
