Hello, The position for Online Data Entry Clerk/Ad Typist that you inquired about does require you to have a computer with email access. Printers are not at all required, but can be helpful. You can begin working FT or PT; the choice is up to you. You will need minimal typing skills for this position. You will be processing orders from your own computer via your email. This work from home opportunity will make you real money. You will not have to contact anyone; you will be contacted through your email. Now you must be willing to work as with any job, and it does require some time and effort to be successful. You will be paid R50.00 for each order you process, for example: if you process 25 email orders a week, you will make R1250.00 weekly. The amount of money you can make is virtually endless. It only depends on the time and effort you put in. There is a "One Time Fee" of R50.00 to begin. This is the cost of the Training Materials. The Training Materials give you the step-by-step instructions on how YOU get started. When you receive your Training Materials you may begin working that very same day. Once you have processed your first order you will have already made back the cost of your Training Materials. You will receive your Training Materials through your email. This work from home opportunity is legitimate, and how successful you are only depends on the time and effort you put in. I am here to help you get started and answer any questions that you may have. If you are serious, and are willing to put forth some time and effort, then I look very forward to hearing from you again.

Now it all sounds dandy up until the R50 fee. Im very skeptical of anything like this and thought id ask your opinions.

So any thoughts will be appreciated.
 
Hmmm.

Sounds a little but dodgy, but then its only R50 so may be worth trying.

Best thing would be to try and get in contact with people who have done it.
 
Dude i enquired about these type of things when i was looking for a job as well, u only earn something like 10c PER AD

NO NO NO NO NO NO NO. Been there, tried that.

Kiss your R50 goodbye.

Gumtree is especially crooked with all these things.
 
Majority Rules. 4 opposed 1 maybe. So its a no. Thnx for your input. Guess the rule still counts, if it sounds to good to be true then it is.

These are indirectly the 419 scams... I have seen this before and its aimed at the people who are less fortunate... dont go near this its bad news... and as soon as they get a feel for your emails and then its what is your bank account details and they move up and then next thing you realise they dig into ur piggy bank and take you for all you are worth...

Do they have a website???
 
Thnx again guys. Thought so, like lydon said until it gets to the fee. Knew i could count on you guyz. Ive told my fiance to steer clear. If any of you do know of a ligit date capturing job that she can do from home PM me the details.

She must go onto to IOL or pnet if she is keen on doing data capturing because they double check on these companies...
 
oh no oh no this is not legit, they get you to pay, do the work, if there is, then tell you your work is rubbish and that you have to re-register. as they say been there done that and lost over R1000 (didn't have a printer so bought one). pinned my hopes on that and lost out. does she have a good camera that can take pics in size of 4MB and more? if so (yes i know a lot of people aren't into photography) tell her to look at www.shutterstock.com. they sell your pics but are very strict about quality and you need to pass a small test but you don't pay anything (except for using your bandwidth lol). nothing and i mean nothing that says work from home and earn R1000 a week blah blah blah is legit. watch out for a company called freshmarketing, they only tell you after you sent in your CV that you need to pay up and by then they have your details.
