Breaking News: Mom makes $379/day Working From Home

Many sites showcase people making as much as $300+ a day working online from home on their computer using Google.

SUN VALLEY, Idaho - Is working from home the next gold rush?

For Katie Matthews it sure is. Katie, a mother from Orlando, Florida is thriving, in the middle of an economic recession working in the comfort of her own home.

"I earn on average about $25 for every link I post on Google and I make around $8,700 a month right now" says Matthews.

But Katie’s life wasn’t always so prosperous. Her recent employer, a well-known insurance agency, did some downsizing and let her go.

Her husband James now became their only source of income, which they both knew they couldn’t live on. That is why Katie took the job at the insurance agency to begin with. They needed extra money and they needed it fast.

Katie’s family had 2 choices. She could either look for another job in her industry (but in these tough economic times, she knew that was a long shot.) Or her husband could take night classes and try to get a promotion at work. But that too would take too much time. And where would they get the money for school?

Katie says, “I was in tears one Saturday night because things were getting tough and we couldn’t even afford to take the kids out to dinner like we do every Saturday night. The kids asked why we weren’t going out and we had to try and explain to them that times were tough. I don’t think they understood. That’s when I knew I had to take matters into my own hands and find a solution for my family.”

That’s when Katie found an advert for Home Online Jobs.

"I read the ad, and at first I was skeptical because they said you will get paid over $300 a day and that seemed like a lot of money to me. But I suspended my disbelief and got started."

She started making money right away and she got her first week’s paycheck of $2,100.

“This was more money than I used to make in a month,” Katie adds.

Home Online Jobs is a risk free course that can teach anyone, regardless of computer skill level to start making money online.

2. I ran across this today on what I thought was a respectable site . . .
(although I don't remember which). Maybe the sponsors of the ad will now get a lot of email originating in Nigeria.

3. Much like any scam around today.

And boy are the scam artists everywhere.

For another example, see: http://www.brooklyncommunityacupuncture.com/faq.html

"What can Acupuncture Treat?

* Chronic pain
* Musculoskeletal disorders
* Arthritis
* Fibromyalgia
* Women's health
* Diabetes
* Headache & migraines
* Post-stroke syndromes
* Insomnia & depression
* Hypertension
* Digestive disorders
* Cancer management
* Allergies & asthma
* Colds & influenza
* Immune system disorders
* Addictions
* and more - ask us!"



Talk about treating people without evidence to support the treatment for, well, just about everything.

If that isn't a scam, what is?

7. Disgusting Filth taking advantage of Desperate People! They got away with it over and over
and they NEVER GIVE UP on it!

It will get worse...! But, these scams on Internet go beyond what a few folks used to see in "back of magazines" from years past. It shows that Wall Street/Advertising EMPIRE never give up the SCAMS on folks who are told that "Entreprenuers" are what MAKES AMERICA.

So many see these ads in DESPERATION...and think THEY are the NEW ENTREPRENUERS that BECK/LIMPBALLS AND REPUGS TAUNT US WITH...all day long on Corporate TV and RADIO..

So..INNOCENTS are SUCKED INTO THIS CRAP/SH**T! Sadly...I have Relatives who are suckered into this stuff......I try to tell them...they don't listen... the lose and lose......They are victims to this Sh***t. When WILL IT STOP?
