Industry Tips

Every day, ads for work-at-home jobs appear in newspapers across
the country as well as in national magazines and on the
Internet. Some of the offers include stuffing envelopes,
assembling products, reading books, reviewing movies, medical
billing, or selling advertising on the Internet.

The BBB suggests using extreme caution when
responding to any such offer. While ads claim high earnings and
short hours with little or no experience, BBB files
nationwide indicate no evidence of anyone making the promised
money. Rarely, if ever, are these ads an offer of legitimate
employment. Generally, these "jobs" require up-front fees for
information or supplies, and only the person who ran the ad
makes any money.

You should be aware that the United States Postal Inspectors
regularly investigate these fraudulent schemes, and that you
risk investigation and possible prosecution by postal or other
law enforcement agencies if you become involved in one of these
schemes.
