This position is perfect for anyone who has spare time and needs to earn extra income quickly. The job requires no previous experience in any particular field.
We only require:

$500-700 a week!

I'm sure this particular post will be flagged for removal in no time, but it's a perfect example of this scam. To the new online job hunter, this might look like a dream come true. Sounds easy, hardly anything required and pays pretty good, right? WRONG!
Several things in this posting raise red flags. There aren't any requirements for the job. Just a computer and internet. That doesn't make anyone qualified to do real work for a real company. Real companies don't pay $2000 a month for part time work to someone with no experience in anything.
What happens after you respond? You get an email stating that for a small "Training Fee", usually $7 - $20, you'll get an email or an ebook that tells you exactly what the "job" entails and how to do it. So you send off your "small investment" and await yet another email that has your "training materials." These materials generally include instructions on how to post the same type of advertisement that you responded to, and will recommend places to post these ads. Then the people who respond to the ads you place will send you the "training fee."
This is not legitimate employment, nor is it ethical. It is a scam and the people who continue to make these bogus postings should be ashamed of themselves.
