What I 'm going to do in this article is to show you the types of easy money making scams and offer the tips how you can avoid them.
Here are the main characteristics of scams:
1- Guaranteed income Avoid the program which guarantees you will make money. Nobody can guarantee this. Even the program is great, it will depend on your work how much money (or money at all) you will make joining that program.
You should also avoid the programs which promise you fortune in a short time.
2- No one answers your questions Don't join any program which doesn't answer any of your questions before joining. If they don't answer you before joining, probably they are not going to answer after you are in the program.
3- There are no earnings disclaimer, terms of service or privacy policy. You know, nearly all money making programs have these terms below the website. But most of money making scams don't put them on their website. You should not join any program which doesn't have these requirements.
4- Work at home jobs. Most of the work at home programs requires an initial fee to join them. When you join them you will have to apply the companies personally without any guarantee that you will find the work you want or not.
5- Get paid to surf and Internet surveys programs. They convince you that you will get paid for surfing the web and filling out surveys. It is lie. They don't tell you the hard part of the work (for example, an advertising part) before joining the program.
It becomes so difficult to get required credits for getting paid that most people quit in their fist days. Most times these programs require a certain fee to join them. Even it is free to join you will have to pay money to the companies inside your membership.
6- Products that "sell themselves". The key to selling a product is successful marketing. If you don't do any marketing for the product, there won't be any sales. So avoid these types of programs.
7- Data entry, envelope stuffing, coupon clipping. These programs most times don't work and include much more than data entry, envelope stuffing or coupon clipping.
Remember, it is not always easy to avoid the scams, but from time to time you will be able to spot them. I wish you success on your way of making money online.
