Make money processing applications!

Have you seen this one before?

This looks like a legitimate work at home opportunity. You have an email account. You have a PC and you know how to use it. This is the perfect work at home opportunity for me. Well, think again. It's not what you may think it is.

This may be a legitimate work at home job but most likely it's not. Usually this type of opportunity requires you to send money to receive instructions on how to process these applications. You send money, get your instructions, and promptly find out that all you have to do is have people respond to messages that you post on work at home forums that are titled:

"Make money processing applications"

Do you want to make enough money to become independently wealthy? Tired of working for a company that doesn't appreciate your efforts? Just send $4.95 via PayPal to:

 youvebeenhad@myemail.com

and we'll show you how you can get started in an opportunity that makes money all by itself...

(and so on)

Isn't this the same work at home job that I just applied for? Yup! The person that you just sent money to is "processing" your application. Don't get caught up in this type of scam. Yes, you can probably make some money, but you will have to spend an enormous amount of time posting on forums and sending emails to make it work. You will also have a hard time convincing people that your opportunity is "real." Also, could you sleep at night knowing what you do for a living? I know that I wouldn't be able to. Do everyone a favor and save yourself some time. Steer clear of this work at home scam.
