chadarcy: Normally I will search "reviews for xxxxxxxxx business". This usually gives me good results.
Nowadays you actually have to really hunt down the accurate information you need.

Very true. I too have done the reviewing like that and found that in all the companies that I reviewed a few gave good and bad results - mostly good ones.
Others gave bad and good results - mostly bad ones and from that I deduced that I should opt for the ones that had more good results than those that got bad results - which to me had seemed scam like anyway. At the end of the day we need to learn to judge them from what we see or hear of them.

While looking for online jobs I was also conned of my time coz at initial stage I joined every site and worked for them, but came to know later that most of them were scams. I loose nothing because scammers made me more wiser.

Over the years, I've developed a thicker, more cynical skin towards business. I've invested in work-at-home "opportunities" that only profited the owner until he went to jail for fraud. I've paid money for so-called FREE "opportunities" that simply took your money and offered no contact number (and the poorest excuse for customer service on the planet).
These days, all you have to do is go to a search engine, type in the company name, and discover what kind of problems/scams await the "buyer". But don't be overly cynical, assuming every business is a scam. Believe me, good companies do exist.
Here's to your success!

Awesome advice. A few more things:
Payment processing jobs - Process check and money orders for an overseas company. Simply deposit the check in your account and send most of it back. Easy right? Until the bank finds out that the check is fraudulent and your are responsible for the entire amount and can sometimes even be arrested.
Start up fees - You shouldn't have to pay for work. These types of jobs are either a scam or total ripoff.
Extensive personal info - Your boss demanding your passport, social security car, drivers license, etc. scanned should raise red flags. This may very well be someone interested in stealing your identity.

Be wary! Scam artists are now posting on legitimate job search engines. Some list themselves as legitimate companies. Yet, when someone overseas offers to pay you 10% of thousands of dollars for simply cashing a few checks, you need to ask yourself "What kind of fool would do this?" The answer is these scumbags think you are the fool.
Here's to your success!
