Spot an Online Scam

There are a number of ways to legitimately earn online if you are willing to spend time and effort on your online work or online business. However, there are a lot of easy get rich programs out there that will lure you and your money to their website. They promise tens and thousands of dollars in one sitting just by either buying their product or just by getting the upgrade from standard to premium membership. These are common sites that you will encounter when you search for “how to earn money online” keywords on your computer.

These tactics have worked for a number of people already. These are people who were pulled immediately by the big numbers and easy investment schemes. And so, we're going to give you some information on how to primarily spot a scam so that you will not be another victim of this online scheme.


What an online earner should keep in mind is it is not a quick get rich platform. Even with an online earning program one would still need to give necessary time and effort on the online work or gig. Like say, a work at home mom with a call center job would need to do a number of calls before she’s paid for the job. Same goes with an online freelance writer, they need to write articles before they can earn anything.

Second thing is, if they require any form of payment from your end before you can join their website, then there is a good chance that that is a scam. Remember, your goal is to earn money by working online so they should be the one’s paying you for your service/work and not the other way.

Third, If they promise a quick S1000 deal in a day then I believe it is wise to just ignore these types of sites. Again, ill reiterate online earning is not a quick get rich platform. Keep in mind the saying, if it is seems too good to be true then it probably is.

Lastly, don’t sign up with sites that have a deadline of sorts. The common thing that they promote is a sense of urgency that their product is only available for a matter of hours sometimes even minutes. These types of sites are nothing but scams, they will just take your money and then their site will be nowhere in sight.

Always remember that the best way to deal with these scams is to just avoid them.
