Personally I can assure you with that company and some of the many others out there like this, I am sure their are a lot of people who have been scammed, and the problem is how to get your $$ back can be a Big issue for sure. I have never had problems getting $$ back when I use my Bank account, but am a little leary about who gets my information for sure. Personally I think everyone needs to do their homework first before spending $$ somewhere that sounds too good to be true. If you are looking for ways to earn extra $$ online look for a company that sells a product or service that is legitimate and go from there.

hi tikbalang, You know what, I used to receive spam mails about workathometypist as well and they offer a good amount of money once you've joined them which I find so ridiculous. Well, it was an obvious scam because first of all they were asking money from people in return for a typing job or research thing. I wonder if that site has already shut down.... I wish it was gone already.
