Watch for Online Scams
By Gerry Lewis
People from all over the world make a
living off of the internet. There
are hundreds of different business
opportunities online that will allow
for anybody to make money. But
unfortunately just like anything else
there are also people out there that
will want to scam you and take your
money. Online scams come in many
different forms, and you really need
to be aware of what they are.
By being aware of online scams you
are cutting back on your chance of
being taken. Many people that fall
prey to online scams do so because
they do not want to believe that
these scams exist. This is a huge
mistake, and being so gullible will
only get you burnt in the end. This
is not to say that there are not
legitimate online opportunities
available; it is simply that there
are many people who will scam you as
a way for them to make money.
Another way to detect online scams
and decrease you chances of being
involved is to ask around. If you
have found an online business
opportunity that you are really
interested in, you should take a week
or two and ask people that you know
if they have any information on the
company. This will tell you if they
are legitimate or not. Think about
how much easier it will be if you can
get a solid testimonial from a
business associate. Knowing that the
opportunity worked for somebody else
will put your mind to rest.
Also, just like any other company
that you do business with, feel free
to ask for references. There is
nothing wrong with calling or
emailing the company that you want to
do business with and ask for
references. You can explain your
situation to them, and let them know
that you are leery of online scams.
If they are a legitimate company they
will be able to provide you with
satisfied customers in no time at
all. On the other hand, if they say
that you can trust them and that they
have been in business for so many
years, you should proceed cautiously.
Any company that cannot give you
solid references might be one of the
hundreds of online scams out there
today. If you still want to do
business with a company like this you
should be very careful.
Overall, using the internet is a
great way to make money.
Unfortunately, there are online scams
that ruin the trust factor for
everybody. But if you know what you
are doing, and take the appropriate
steps, you should have no problem
avoiding online scams. Find an
opportunity today, and research it
carefully before you get started.
You will be happy that you did in the
end!
