My coworker recently told me he moonlights doing an online job while working our normal job. I asked him what he does and he said that it’s hard to explain but there’s a powerpoint that explains when i get hired. He said it’s all legal and we get paid $10 an hour and pay goes out every week. He showed me he’s made an extra $250 this week on an excel spreadsheet. I think it sounds like a great opportunity/s

Anyway what flavor of scam do you think this guy is part of? I’m thinking mlm because he’s trying to bring others into the fold, but I heard him tell someone else theres a fee to join, and that screams pyramid scheme.

    I like how you can tell who didn’t read your whole post by them giving you real advice about not taking this job

        Even if you miss the /s, the second paragraph makes it pretty clear that was sarcasm. Unless you know people who think getting scammed is a great opportunity.
