I've joined tons of these stupid scam "work at home" jobs and I'm getting pretty frustrated. Has anyone actually gotten paid by one (regularly)?????

I tried and keep ending up with herbal life blahh
same here, none that i could find.
the same here as well...hopefully someone out there has better news for us.
Sorry..i've ended up with junk
I know there are real ones out there. I just dont know where to find them. Hubby says there is four or five people where I live that do the stuffing envelopes at home or crafts. I've seen them with huge boxes of envelopes dropping them off at the post office. Too bad it's so hard to find them though!
I've had the stuffing envelopes offer before, but you have to pay before you can stuff..i don't know about you guys, but I don't want to have to pay for a job.
Agreed. I think thats DEFINATELY a scam...Quote:

I just tried the hausernet.com site and got through to the last page that asked me to print it out and write my social insurance number on it with my signature and mail it to them. I really hate giving my SIN # to anyone especially a company I don't know.Quote:

Any job you were applying for would require that info would it not? I think that is more a sign of a legit company that actually takes the work seriously?Quote:

Interesting... for all my job applications (Not work at home jobs mind you) a SIN was always required just to apply!
same here..but i've never tried working from home either..Quote:

I have found success with a website called the Rat Race Rebellion. This site gives you many links to legitimate at home work. I recieved my first job interview yesterday.
Here's the link if anyone is interested..dunno if it's a scam thoughQuote:

Welcome to SC boyzmom & yummymummyincornwall !!!!
Btw everyone, they ask in the one link for your Social Security or tax i.d number. Social security IS NOT Social Insurance. Social security is in the U.S and you WILL NOT get paid if you put your Social Insurance number. Never ever ever ever give out your Social Insurance over the Internet, EVER!!!!
Great advice you must protect yourself on the internet!
I don't think a company should ask for your SIN number until you're actually hired!
Exactly :top:, too much fraud nowadays.Quote:

My wife has been working full time for ten months now with one based out of Ontario. They are usually hiring and have callers in most provinces.
I see their listing in the Job bank frequently.
