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.
He’ll only tell you what the job duties are AFTER you’re hired and YOU have to pay to be hired? For $10/hr? Even if that wasn’t a straight up scam I wouldn’t invest time, money, and effort into signing up and doing onboarding if I didn’t know what the hell I was doing.
Hard to say exactly what’s going on there with that little info, though.
You lost me after “it’s hard to explain but there’s a powerpoint presentation”. I would pass.
Sounds like MLM bullshit at best, or something illegal like being a money mule at worst.
If he has to explain that it’s legal, and refuses to tell you what it is until you get hired, it’s a scam. Probably an MLM he got sucked into.
