Article Body:
Think you already know what this subject is all about? Chances are that you don’t, but by the end of this article you will!

Now perhaps the infer you’re interested in site up a home base business is because you’ve seen an ad wherever on the Internet maybe, or you've been ask by somebody probably a family member. It was all about a great work-from-home money-making opportunity, and you're excited. Finally, you can suspend your job! Just wait a minute....

If you're thinking of working from home by somebody else’s rules, though, you have to realize that at slightest 99% of the offers out there are scams after all, if it was that easy to pay a few dollars and make thousands, wouldn’t everyone be getting involved with it by now? Here are the major scams out there, how to recognize them, and how to prevent them.

Location, Location, Location.

Where did you see that work from home offer? If you got it in the post, or by email, or saw it on a poster taped around a phone pole, then I can guarantee you right now that it’s not a legitimate offer. If you saw the ad in a newspaper, in a jobs magazine or on a jobs website, then it’s a little more possible to be legit but not much. Forever check out any offer, and think it’s a swindle until you have iron-clad resistant to the contrary.

Envelope Stuffing.

This is the most established work-from-home scam, and it’s been going for decades now. Basically, once you pay your money and authorize up to work from home, you're sent a set of envelopes and ads just like the one you responded to. You might make some money if somebody responds to your ad, but eventually there just wont be a promote for it any more. Anyway, works from home offers like this are dishonest pyramid schemes.

You won't make any money putting writing in envelopes get over it.

Charging for Supplies.

The prepare of charging for food is hard to pin down to any one swindle it’s the way almost all work-at-home scams work (including the envelope stuffing, above). You'll be asked to make a small investment for anything resources would be desirable to do the work and then you'll be sent very unkind resources that aren't appealing to anything like what you paid, and you'll find that there's no market for the work anyway.

As you can see, running a ‘home base business’ that just involves ‘working’ for one company is a bad idea. You don’t know who you’re dealing with. Here’s the clincher, though: even with entirely legal work-at-home offers that do pay you for your work, you still won’t make anywhere near as much as you can with your very own home base business. So why bother with them at all?

Over time, you will begin to understand how these concepts really come together if you choose to venture into this subject further.

Working for Free.

This variation on the scam is common with crafts. You might be asked to work at home making clothes, ornaments or toys. Everything seems legitimate – you’ve got the materials without paying out any money, and you’re doing the work. Unfortunately for you, when you send the work back, the company will tell you that it didn’t meet their ‘quality standards’, and will refuse to pay you. Then they’ll sell on what you made at a profit, and move on to the next sucker.

Never do craft work from home unless you’re selling the items yourself. Note that you don’t need to be selling to consumers (you could be selling to wholesalers), but you still need to be the one deciding what you make and getting the money.

Home Typing, Medical Billing, and More.

There are lots of work-from-home scams that involve persuading you that some industry has more work than it can handle, and so has to outsource to people working from home. For example, you might be told that you’d be typing legal documents, or entering medical bills into an electronic database. These scams have one thing in common: they all say that all you need is your computer and they all then go on to say that you need to buy some ‘special software’.

This software might appear to be from a completely unrelated company, but don’t be fooled – the whole reason the ‘work-from-home’ ad was there to begin with was simply as cynical marketing for the software.
