    Hi Folks,

    My friends have all become victims of the online jobs where they put in efforts and were paid in peanuts and sometimes the site closed down too!

    Beware gals.

    Hi Margg and Veronica,

    Girls, I wanted to share the experiences my friends had with the online jobs. They lost their effort and got peanuts in return! One of them was desperate as the site closed down!

    Friends, do not try to take this short cut methods.

    Beware of Work From Home Jobs

    Guys,

    I know that these days there are many opportunities for people who work from home. People are writing for websites, creating website designs etc. while working from home. But must warn you that not all jobs are fair an right. There are many crooks online which are just trying to fool you into getting your money.

    I am saying this because I have been fooled and robbed of Rs.1500 by one such crook. They wrote and told me to sign up for some pay per click website. They promised huge cheques and large income. I happily paid Rs 1500 to them through credit card. And guess what? The website was a complete sham.

    Thus, never ever pay for getting a job. If they ask money, run in the opposite direction.

    Tell me have you ever come across any such people?
