Are all work-at-home data entry job listings fake/scam?

Question

I already have a full time day job but I would like to earn more on the side without commuting. I am very good at typing and inputting data but I heard that work at home data entry jobs are fakes.

Answer 1

DONT CLICK THAT LINK... HACKER

Some are legit.. check them out, call the BBB

Answer 2

I am trying to figure out this exact same thing!  Let me know if you find anything please!

Answer 3

They are usually fakes, Which sucks because working at home would be oh so wonderful :]

Usually the jobs that your work at home are like Proctor & Gamble, Or companies that you work in the office for a couple days a week and at home for the other few.  

Answer 4

I've been doing some work with www.elance.com the past week, all the work is home based, data entry, transcription etc. The only thing is you're competing against people from countries where the hourly rate of pay is a lot lower, so not sure if it would be worth it for you.

Also have a look at the jobs listed here, most are applicable to us,canada,europe, its quite good, thats where I found the above link.

http://dataentry-jobsearch.blogspot.com/

Its been updated today to include some Craft type jobs which can be done from home, mainly re-distribution, but it possible to make good money from it if you work hard.

So many online jobs are out there. In fact, to do any online job, you need not want to invest anything. Make sure, you dont pay anything to get jobs online. It is just that need to pick the one that suits you the best. I hope this helps you and I believe you will find the online job that you love the most. Thanks

Answer 8

Hi! You should never pay anyone to have a JOB from home. If someone is offering employment and asking for money then it is a scam. However, a HOME BUSINESS is different. If you and I decided to open up our own coffee shop then there would be start up costs right? It's the same for home businesses. You work for yourself and the income potential is unlimited. Not to mention the great people you will meet and the fun you will have along the way. You have to be sure you choose something you are passionate about. You can market makeup, candles, health products, etc. I chose to help people save money on their health care. There are many many people that need medical, vision, or dental benefits. 56 million Americans do not have coverage. Even more need a dental plan.

If you would like to own your own business helping people save money on health care, please listen to a 15 minute recorded overview by calling 712-432-9598. If you love what you hear..then request an interview by visiting http://www.FreedomAtHomeTeam.com/TCothre... ,or call me at 1-866-400-8716.

Answer 11

I looked for a long long time for legit opportunities that have no cost, and that you can actually make good money at. I finally found one, I make good money, it has no cost, I set my own schedule and its a lot of fun. We even get bonuses for recruiting right now! If you are interested please contact me, its a great opportunity!

Answer 15

More than likely, and your first answerer POSTED a scam FYI

Answer 16

No, not all are fakes. You need to join those companies that do not require you to pay them any upfront fees and you should be quite safe.

See: http://www.MumPassiveIncome.com

I know this website offers some work at home jobs which include online data entry jobs that do not require you to pay them in order to work for them.

Hope it helps.

Answer 17

No. Key for Cash is a legit data entry company with no joining fee, but they have a long waiting list. If you are a good listener and can type fast, you can also apply for transcription jobs listed at http://de7.info . Local businesses may also outsource their data entry, so you should contact them directly

Answer 18

no.. becuase there is REAL things like that. sometimes.. all you have to do is make calls allday or you have to go on ur comp.. go on the internet and count numbers... but u hav to watch out for fake ones..

Answer 19

well once i remember they where advertising something similar and obviously I wanted to try it but ya sure enough it was all a scam.

Answer 20

no these aren't

Here is how i made 350$ online in one month,

I do a number of GTP sites (get paid to)

These GTP sites pay you by paypal or they will mail you your check. They pay you to take surveys, do free trails,referer your friends, and join other websites!

The best site of them all is

http://c a s h c r a t e.com/691093 - take out the spaces

Second best

http://www.treasuretrooper.com/412900

And third best

http://www.swatcash.com/htmls

keep in mind that there are dozens of these kind of sites, i have done them all and i recommend these three.

Answer 21

I honestly think that a LOT of them are... I have yet to find one that actually paid without you having to put in some money first.  The way I look at it, you should never have to PAY SOMEONE ELSE for you to get paid.  If they ask for that, then it's probably a scam or a pyramid scheme or something like that.  And that also goes for those lists/companies that you have to pay for in order for them to tell you about other people/jobs.  Don't do it.  Seriously.  You'll just be wasting your money.  But if you every find anything legitimate, be sure to let me know :-)
