How can you check out a work-at-home site is on the up & up and not a scam?

Answer 1

Are they asking for money up front? Is promised pay excessive? Is it too good to be true?

Most work at home opportunities are scams. Either they want up front money or they are collecting personal info. The handful of legit call center companies have long waiting lists and even if you do make it to the top of the list, you won't get enough assignments to make any real money.

Start your own business. What do you already know how to do -- babysit, cater, sew ....
