FIB - Scams 101 - Ye Olde Archives
Posted By: Bluto Samartino In Response To: Real home base jobs (Meri)
Thursday, 5 January 2006, at 8:49 p.m.
My suggestion is that you don't get your hopes up and be in a hurry and think you will find something in a jiffy. Real, legit work at home jobs are very few and far between and not advertised as other "real" jobs are. The fact that you can "work my way around a computer" is great but that isn't going to be the only thing that lands you a WAH job. These days just about anyone can "work my way around a computer". It's like saying you can spell out the alphabet and write out words. Who can't?
Many here have suggested to others to check craigslist.org for some legit WAH jobs, but to be honest with you I have to disagree with them. craigslist is simply a popular online classified ad site and therefore it is no safer than your local newspaper or any other online classified site and therefore will be chock full of bogus scams to "work at home". Be careful and don;t think you are going to find anything soon because you most likely will not. Everyone wants to work at home or telecommute but the fact of the matter is that there are not that many WAH/telecommuting positions available to hand out to just everybody that wants one and that is the main reason why scammers target this group so heavily. It's an easy scam for them because the prospects are very willing and will usually believe anything.
And remember, if you have to pay even a dollar to get a supposed WAH job positions, it's a scam. Don't even bother. Real employers do not require a fee to be employed by them. At least nonw that I am aware of anyway.

| PLEASE READ THIS LEGAL NOTICE CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU FILE A LAWSUIT OR EVEN WASTE TIME THINKING ABOUT IT. It has been done before, but never successfully. In fact, the last dodobird who tried it ended up being ordered to pay more than $77,000 in attorney fees ($65,000+ to my attorneys and $12,000+ to my co-defendant's legal advisor).
If your attorney is worth his salt, he's going to tell you that the expense of filing a lawsuit you can't win is a whole lot worse than any "damages" resulting from messages posted on this insignificant little chunk of cyberspace. NEWS FLASH: I didn't just climb down off that ol' turnip truck yesterday. I'm well aware that expressing a negative opinion, relating one's personal experience, and restating provable facts are all legal in this country and do not constitute libel, slander, or defamation -- so you don't want to play games with me, and you sure don't want to start something you aren't prepared to finish. I don't take threats lightly, and I don't accept bribes (or did you call it a "mutually-beneficial arrangement"?). I'll turn you in faster than you can yell, "ARREST ME, I'M SCUM!!" Do yourself a favor and turn your legal team loose in greener pastures.

In closing, I would like to remind you once again that it is still legal, in this great country of ours, to express a PERSONAL OPINION, as long as it is presented as opinion and not as fact. And finally, all you scammers out there will do well to remember that TRUTH IS AN ABSOLUTE DEFENSE against charges of libel, defamation, and slander... so if you're operating just a hop, skip, and jump ahead of the law, you might want to think twice before doing anything stupid... (AND SHAME ON YOU!!). |
