I haven't heard of them but I don't like that you have to pay to join. Mind you the 7 day trial appears to be only $2.95 so it isn't a big risk. (Risk more on PTRs and Surf sites that scam) Googled it and couldn't find anything saying scam for this site. Couldn't find out how much membership was after the week? Also some people may do better than others because they have a better resume. So if you haven't worked in ten years and have no schooling, you may not do well there.
I wouldn't chance it. I hate loosing ANY money. But if I was a risk taker, I would try the week and see how much I made, and continued membership couldn't be more than what I earned that week so I would only be out the initial 3 bucks.

It seems to be the same as the survey sites which charge you for finding sites & programs which you can find on the web yourself.

Also this was at the bottom of the page.

That is a lot per month! Also I was thinking how alot of those Data processing, assistant jobs are listed in a VERY deceptive way. You could think you will get real job offers but it is just links to sites telling you to get others to do this and you will get paid blah blah blah....junk
Like I said, it wouldn't be for me.

Also sometimes check your national job bank. We have one here in Canada run by the government and its free. You can find some jobs that are work from home that are ligit, NOT MANY but sometimes. Also temp jobs and such. I just found one that is only for two weeks but I use my own car (which they pay you to do) and I work alone so I can load my herd in the back with snacks and XPs and do it without childcare costs.

Just keep an eye on those type of sites and grap something here or there. I do see a few work at homes and only go to the office once a week things, but never applied due to the offices were always four hours away, being I am in a very country area. But other people in larger cities could find more opportunities like that than I.
Good Luck!
