How do you know if the home business you are searching for online is a scam? What are some of the indicators of an online scam so you can protect yourself from fraud?
Dealing with a business that offers neither contact information whatsoever such as a phone number or email address is one of the indications that you are dealing with a scam. You are definitely heading for trouble especially if it just asks you to send money via Paypal or Alert Pay.
When the business tells you that you don't have to do anything to make money and that it is totally automated, it is a sign of an online scam. Any business that claims to make money by doing nothing is simply bogus.
You are also being led into the online scam game when it doesn't actually give you a product save for a replicated website. Sure, it works for some, but only for those who have a huge mailing list, or for those who actually started these programs. You will just end u throwing away your money, so you'd better save it for something worthwhile.
Another sign of a scam, is if the business is promising you that you will make money in that same day or even week. They are appealing to your desire to get rich quick, and most likely the website will have dollar bills flashing all over the place. This smells of a scam a mile away.
Another sign of an internet scam is one that is actually a small pyramid scheme that doesn't work. You've got to trust me on this one because even if I am embarrassed to say, I got involved in something like this once. It promises you huge leverage of a small amount of money, say for example, leveraging $45 into $50,000. Speaking from experience, it just doesn't work.
A good online home business should have a professionally done and great-looking website. So, stay away from those that have poorly made websites because most likely, this is a scam. If a business cannot afford to pay for a decent looking website, them this is most likely run by scam artists who are probably in the most need of YOUR money! Stay away from these cheap sites.
There are other ways of determining whether the company you're dealing with is a legitimate business opportunity or a business scam. But nowadays, there are more scams out there than legitimate ones so buyer...be aware!
