It is possible to work from home on the Internet, in fact I do, but I have never had to join a program that promised me great fortune and neither should you. In fact a surprising majority of these are nothing more than scams that make nobody any decent money except the con artists that claim you can get rich using them. To name and shame is not my game (excuse bad poetry) but all too many of these make money online scams will promise you the world and more than likely deliver you nothing!
Work from home scams will usually need you to pay some kind of fee up front *Sound The Alarm*!! Avoid any program that requests money from you on the word ‘go’. If a particular program is worth joining then those that run it will offer you a free membership and let the rewards speak for themselves instead of trying to hide anything from you before or when you join. You really need to be alert though as many of these scams make the future sound oh so bright and rosy through very believable and convincing blatant lies. Amongst their deceitful weapons is technical jargon which they often use to confuse people into paying a fee or fees up front.
Actually not joining something that requires any initial payment may be the biggest golden rule to follow to help you avoid being scammed. If you have to pay to join or to get further information about a money making program, chances are high that you are joining a scam to get nobody rich but the people you hand over your hard earned money to. Be careful.
On the other hand, there are some excellent programs that you can sign up for (free of charge) that will make you some extra money and with some self learning, patience and time can even become a good source of income. Among one of the best ways to make cash online is the Google Adsense publisher program, which is worldwide, or Traffic Synergy, which is an affiliate program for South Africans. Another affiliate program worth looking into is Offerforge, I recently joined these guys and already have some pretty impressive commission pending.
