Data Entry Work
I saw an advertisement about Data Entry work
on a website. They require me to pay $99 for getting work
assignments. I am an expert in data entry work and I
would like to take up the assignment. Is their offer
reliable? Would you please let me know?

One of the hottest scams on the Internet (and Offline
too) is to make unrealistic, tempting claims and
promises and relieve ignorant clients of their
hard-earned money.
I visited the website you had mentioned and noted the
following points: (1) There are no contact details such
as street address and correct phone number except a
vague email address. (2) They claim that by working for
an hour or two a day you can make thousands of dollars.
Many experienced software programmers in the United
States earn just a fraction of what these people
promise. (3) I tried to find out the website owners
through whois search. They have not given proper contact
information.
Then I googled for the website name and came up with
hundreds of complaints against the website. Anything
that looks too good to be true is in most cases fake.
I don't say all are bad apples. There would one or two
good companies for every thousand scamsters. Individuals
generally do not have resources to evaluate them. When
there are millions of genuine self-employment
opportunities, why do you waste your time on such
scams?
