In all sense, this is the basics of scams isn’t it? If you had to work hard at one and earn a little bit of money, or just enough, then it would not be a scam in the first place.

This is just a salacious sales pitch used in great effect to hook, line and sink you into a deep puddle, in which you realised too late that you are knee dip in an undesirable situation. The other easy way you can check for a scam is using the solid gold feedback system of the internet, which consists of other forums, news groups and collectives online that make it a point to review and rate other services on the internet.

The last thing you can look out for is the accreditation list of the company or website. No accreditation means no-go. And if it looks fishy or an obvious Photoshop effort, then move along to another website.
