What not to do

Stuffing envelopes; It's highly unlikely that there are any companies out there these days that require envelope stuffing. What they want is for you to send off some money to get you started ? don?t do it ? you will never hear back from them again. Many scammers out there ask for money up front to provide you with a ?kit? to get you started for whatever business it is they purport to run. Avoid the ?start up your own business using your home PC" type positions. Most likely you will have to pay something up front for their manual and that will be that!

What you do need to do

If you cannot find the company on the internet than see this as a big no no and avoid them at all costs. Search internet forums ? if the company is a bad company, you can be sure there will be plenty of negative press about them in the chat rooms!
