Desperate Job Seekers Letting Down Their Guard and Getting Ripped Off

[Sharon Hill]

Though this Arizona Republic article is entitled Desperate Arizona Job Seekers the message is applicable everywhere. Much of what is discussed are work at home jobs or business opportunities. In general I would say that you should never ever accept an envelope stuffing or assembly position. There may be legitimate ones out there but I've never found them. And never pay up front for the privilege of starting a job.
