Don't get fooled by Online Money Making Scams

You may be very wise and think you are immune to money making scams but unfortunately they exist everywhere and the scammers are getting better and better.

What is a scam?

Scams come in many forms. Their purpose is to defraud you. Whether it is to get your personal information, or to sell you something that is not as described.

Credit Card Fraud

Spoof emails claiming to be from official companies

Spoof auctions

The most one people will fall for, is get rich quick scams. These are tough ones, many cannot be classed as scams because the webmasters, are very careful how they describe the money making opportunity. The only problem with many get rich quick schemes, is that the only person getting rich quick is in fact the person who created it, the webmaster.

The only way to not get sucked into a get rich quick scam, is to apply the old saying " if something seems to good to be true, it probably is".

Not all money making opportunities are scams. Not at all, but what you do need to remember is, that making money online takes time. There is no get rich quick fix.

How do I know if a money making opportunity is legit?

Use Google and forums to check out if anyone has reviewed them.

It is only my opinion, but I believe the only way to make money, is to find a niche and make it your own. Create a way of doing something that is better than your competitor.Theres nothing wrong with getting involved with an opportunity that already exists. Use free resources sites that help you to earn money for free and give impartial advice.
