Hi. I have come across many websites which offer huge amount of bucks if you work from home. But the risk is that they demand a initial investment of Rs.600 or so. So do anyone know any genuine WORK AT HOME site? And which doesn't ask any initial investment????
Plz help

check out www.odesk.com. it's free, easy, and payment system is uber reliable. i've been working there for more than 6 months and it's true that an hour of work is an hour paid. good luck!

As others have said, oDesk is great. I have worked for them for about a year and I love it. In my profile link is a blog that has some of my experiences with oDesk and some tips and tricks for getting hired when you're new. You may have to look through archived posts. There may be some other earnings opportunities that interest you as well.

You will be contacted by email for an interview. I have my account set up so that I get notified in my regular email if I have received a message in my oDesk email, but I don't trust it, so I check my oDesk messages regularly. You may find it hard to get hired in the beginning, so apply for many jobs and don't get discouraged, just keep trying. Once you get hired, it will be easier to get hired for the next job. Good luck to you!

You can check www.wahm.com. Then you can look for jobs locally at craigslist.com. I would suggest to avoid all sites that asks you to pay money. If you are good at writing articles, you can try Triond and others. I guess you are an Indian and Triond will certainly work for you. If you are interested, I will send you the link to join.

Well. If you can do mobile recharging as a business, you can give a try with AIMCindia.com (but you need a sponsor to join) The initial investment is Rs.1000. This would be accounted for as fees for opening a business account. But, the company is giving top up to members' prepaid mobile for Rs.100 x 10 months, as a gift. After joining, members can do the recharge business and earn a commission of 3%.
The beauty is, we can use our own single prepaid mobile for this business, instead of having separate mobiles for each network.
There is also referral commissions. But, most people are not good at getting referrals. They can just join this one and do the recharge business only. After 10 months, they have to pay again Rs.1000 if they want to continue. For those who are good at getting referrals, the renewal is done automatically from their referral earnings.
The company is 1 year old.

Well. Doing recharge business, I don't think, is outdoor business. We are just sending SMS for doing it. What is OUTDOOR here? May be, you are not willing to do business having to interact with people.
Referring people, I agree it's outdoor affair.
If you are looking for any online data entry, there is no such site. (Except some low paying sites or scams.)

Hi - It is true that many sites which look lucrative demand money to for you to start work. It is like a bribe for an agent to get you some work! I don't think anyone should pay money if he or she is willing to work online, mainly because there are so many options available.
I work on two sites where you can work online and earn a decent income. Depending on how much time you want to devote you can earn several dollars everyday. The work is also very simple and easy to understand. I don't want to give links in a discussion, but I can send you a message about the same. I have sent you a friend request.
