If so how did you get into it and has anyone been ripped off with the many dodgy ones on the internet?

I have actually applied for a kind of mailing job from home on gumtree and send £30 to register with the 'company', but did not get any reply. It is now 2 weeks later and the money was banked... I took the risk, but be careful if you see any ad saying to text your name and address: they will send you a letter but will not contact you afterwards.

hi there Sandy01

i don't know what your skillsets are. i have worked as an audio typist from home with expedict.

http://www.expedict.co.uk/workopps.php?context=contact

for more details. They pay the best rates that i've come across in that field.

i've also worked for http://www.ebs-digital.co.uk/. IMHO the experience was not as good as expedict.

i also do work for an essay writing outfit. check this link. http://academia-research.com/writer/index.php?pg=join&PHPSESSID=3a7868429a7ae0236ae7bce40b1362b5

the work is not as well paid - plus it's in USD - but i enjoy it.


There are numerous rip off scams. the most freaky one i came across advertised for payment processors. when i got more info it turned out to be money laundering. be careful out there. as a rule of thumb avoid any "opportunity" which requires a payment up front. they are almost always not worth the money.

hope that helps!

Thanks for making that clear, taitts. Indeed - all opps I mentioned are self-employed.
