I recently applied a home-typist work on line( internet) I've paid the person but I found out the training material was not what I expected I felt cheated. I thought I have to do typing work and submit somewhere but it was something like this ( I have to readvertise on any classified ad. so that someone will interested to do this home-typist work then bank in some money as is call (training material fees) then I will earn back what i've paid for) I feel like me too will learn how to cheat people.

This sounds like a pyramid scheme to me. Depending on what they advertised, they could possibly get into legal trouble but it probably would be more hassle than it is worth to do anything about it. I wouldn't readvertize if I were you.
I think there are some legitimate home-typist type things you can do, but I don't believe any of them ask you for an upfront fee. Here is a great website for people who are looking to work from home. http://www.wahm.com/

Sound like one of those pyramid scam where you have to sign up more ppl to earn money.
It is false advertisement since the typing job is falsely advertise to attract people and later on you learn it has nothing to do with it.
You should stop them before more people gets hurt.

Well unfortunely i have been there. And yes, there is alot of scam. It is always good to research the business if there is such one. Majority of the time is all a pyramid scheme. I am independent business owner and recruiter for a 14 year old debt free company, registered with the better business bureau and located in Texas. This is very legit and if your interested please email me: z_ameriplan@yahoo.com

To be honest, you are probably not going to find an honest job working from home. Most of what you are going to find are scams where you will be asked to pay money and receive a list of places you can contact to apply to work online.
The most important thing to remember about job searches is that you should use a combination of methods regardless of your location.
Networking - Register at your local Unemployment Office (you don't need to be on unemployment to register for their assistance). They often will have networking groups on a regular basis. They also are a good source for the jobs that never show up in the paper or online.
Check your local paper -- In many cases the paper's classified are now online.
Search Smart Online -- If you don't have a lot of time, spend most of your time at sites that aggregate the job feeds from several job search engines. Prominently these include indeed.com and thingamajob.com.
Organization -- I use a free online application that allows you to track your ads, jobs you apply for, send or print mail merged correspondence, and track your job search history. It is a very useful tool that saves everything for you on one site... JobSearchLog.com.
Good Luck,
Karen

I feel cheated when I will have the most thumbs up and I don't get picked. I'm lacking on my best answers myself. It's the first thing I check when I get up. I answered a question and got 18 thumbs down on a answer and deleted it myself. A lot depends on my mood and I can see in my answers the bitterness I have some days.

Try prepaid legal or automatic builder. They are both legit jobs.
