Can anyone tell me if online jobs are for real and if they are, where does one find the real ones?
I have heard about online jobs, like customer support for cell phone companies, sales orders for manufactures, and other computer related companies. I have searched the internet with Google, Yahoo, and Netscape and I can not find them? If they really do exist, where does one find them?
Lots of people work at home and make decent money. Most of these do work at home that they formerly did in an office, often for the same employer – I know four people who do that. Others run their own businesses from home – I know two people who do that.
You probably won’t find jobs like customer support by searching the internet – most of those would be gotten through the company themselves, and some could be work-from-home.
If you are asking about the "jobs" you find on the Internet, like surveys, mystery shopping, envelope stuffing, they’re pretty much all scams, either looking for your signup fee or for your personal information so they can put you on a zillion advertising lists. You’ll probably get answers here from people touting some website – look at how long they’ve been on Answers, and be especially aware of anyone who just signed up in the last day or two. If they just signed up today or yesterday, it’s probably because Yahoo booted them off earlier for spam.
Yes there are some that are real. I was researching one called voice applied services a while back. I think that’s the name. I would try and google it. Good luck!
