I found a web site for work at home.
http://ucanworkfromhomeonline.com/
Has anyone ever done anything like this and do you believe that this one may be lagitimate? I heard before that if you have to pay for it they were taking your money. This company is here in Ga.

You are right..if you have to pay for it, it's not worth it. You can check them out with Better Business Bureau too.
Years ago, I did a Work From Home. Did Secret Shopper. Made a little money, was nothing to make me rich, but in the end, the taxes killed me.

Just be careful........

I have seen this before, you can get the same info for free. Try this site everything is free she is a correpondent on Goodmorning America. She has a list of part and full time jobs you can apply for on the web. My sister did it and got full interview and even had to take test. The only investment is many times they want you to use a regular PC not a lap top and you have to purchase phone headset. They even do background checks. It is just like any other job you apply for. Many of them are customer service jobs. You know how you dial that 1800 number if it is someone that doesn't have an accent is is probably someone sitting at home on their computer.http://www.womenforhire.com/
www.chacha.com also hires people to work from home no fee.

Someone is selling a product: information. How good that information is... they may be legitimate, but that doesn't guarantee you'll get a job with any of the employers listed. It does look like they're trying to be honest.

The website looks amateurish, but I've seen amateurish websites before that were completely legit. I do like that their Contact Us page has a live chat link. Why not use that before purchasing? Ask your questions and see how they sound.

any of those 'offers' of work at home that requires you to pay them up front are scams. beware.

I totally agree even if it is just 25 dollars, the are just sending a list you can get free from the site I sent earlier.

I am always afraid of sites like this. Look for something else.
