ALL – I repeat, ALL – of the work-from-home, no-training-required, no-risk programs you read about online are scams. All of them. Think about it: if a job existed that was as easy and as much of a "sure thing" as they promise, so many people would flock to it that the wages for it would get pushed down to nothing.
To make money in any job, you have to ADD VALUE to the process. An auto worker gets paid for weldingn parts onto a car. A financial consultant gets paid for doing research and advising people on where their investments can earn the greatest returns.
If you want to do home-based, internet-based work, start by asking yourself what particular skills/abilities/experiences you have that might be of value to a customer (individual or organization).
An "entry level" example of this would be writing resumes for job seekers or typing up term papers for students.
More advanced example would be doing CAD work as a subcontractor for an engineering firm, doing web site design and hosting or running an advertiser-sponsored Blog about politics or the environment. You get the idea.

Please remember that there is a huge difference between a job and a business. No, no, no, no…not all "jobs" and "opportunities" you find on-line are scams. You can though read up on just about every job and opportunity out there. Unfortunately, not everything you read is truthful either. I’ve tried numerous "opportunities" and by trial and error, I’ve finally found a legitimate business that I run from my home and that virtually everyone I talk to is interested in. When you find what you love, you’ll know it in your heart..listen to your gut…I finally did & I’m Proud to tell everyone about my business!

Research, research, research and research some more. Don’t jump into (or invest money) in the first business you come across.
Think about what you like doing, what you are passionate about and more importantly WHY are you looking for a home business?
Do you want more money? Or more time?
There is no way that every home based business is a scam. I personally know people in my company that are currently making $50,000 a week. If that is a scam, I want 100′s of those. This company has the best pay plan I have ever seen with some of the best products on the market. I am very proud to say I am a home based business owner. It is the best money I have spent in years and I will be financially free. The thing to remember though is that if you want a home based business, you have to treat it like a business. To many people think they can just join a network marketing company and get rich from spill over. This is not going to happen. A business is work and a home based business is no different. There is also no home based business that will just grow by itself. You will have to invest some money, not thousands though. Think what a McDonalds franchise costs. Network marketing is a cheap investment for what you can get in return. Do you know any business owner that does not have to spend any money to make his business grow? Network Marketing has probably created more millionairs than any other business. Network marketing is the best business to run and will lead to financial freedom as long as you understand you have to work your business. The internet is full of people working from home making a lot of money so don’t let people discourage you from following your dreams, your passion. Others have done it and so can you.

Tough times, everyone is cutting back. The "home business" that sells vitamins, lotions and potions are becoming a thing of the past as those are the first thing to go when times are tough. People are needing help with real life issues and everyday life events. Also, looking for a true opportunity where they don’t have to depend on a "downline" of some binary plan to be active and everyone spending $100′s of dollars every month. If you looking for something that is none of that, that is legitimate, how about join a company that has past Attorney Generals on board and is regulated by every states insurance commission. please visit http://www.teamvt.com and view the presentation. If it is something that makes sense, my contact information is there. Best of luck to you!

The first post is no where near correct. they are many legitimate online businesses available out there. You do need to do your research. Some of the best are in fact low or no risk, and provide the training and support to learn how to make things work. A few good options are in my links below…
