Common work-at-home schemes to avoid include:
- envelope stuffing;
- rebate processing;
- online searches; and
- medical billing.
If you feel like you've been scammed, you can report the company to the FTC by calling 877-FTC-HELP, as well as your state's Attorney General's office.
Do your homework and check with the Better Business Bureau to check the legitimacy of a prospective work-at-home program. There are a lot of valid opportunities out there, but a little caution can save you a big headache down the road.
