Answer 7

Not all money making schemes are scams. There are many legit ways to make money on the Internet. The trick is finding the real ones and avoiding the scams.

One way to do this is, ask about a specific program here and find out if anyone is actually making money with it. Other ways are:

Find someone that you know is making money online and ask them how they are doing it.

Answer 8

Simply ask yourself this question : if you have a dead cert way of making money, why would you want to sell it on to other people? Why wouldn't you just run with it yourself?

If it seems too good to be true, it is.

Answer 9

You should have asked; Are scams money making schemes? then you would have answered your own question if that makes any sense to you.

Answer 10

Not all of them, you must be more specific if you want a true answer.

Answer 11

If it sounds too good to be true, it is.

In general, financial success requires some combination of working harder, longer, better, or doing something new.  

To some degree you have to go against the crowd a bit (not do what others are doing) or, better yet, find a way to turn something you enjoy and do better than others into a profit-making venture.

Money making and financial success does not have to be a drudgery, but most people miss the two keys:  (1) the answer for you comes from inside, not outside.  It has to match you in some fundamental way; be a good fit to your personality and your abilities.  (2) the answer is incremental, not "the mother load."  Very few successful people find a workable solution quickly or one that solves all of their money concerns at once.  By experimenting with opportunities as they come and by moving step by step to improve daily habits, successful people make things better one day at a time.

Answer 12

If they tell you about getting rich in less than a year.. then YES.

If they tell you about getting rich slowly over several years, then no.
