Compiled by the Librarians of the Akron-Summit County Public Library
Most Work-From-Home web sites require signing up for a fee or buying products, such as lists of companies. Some web sites simply provide ideas and resources on how to become a home-based worker. In many listings, leads are the same too-good-to-be-true offers found in junk mail ads. Check this article about how to look for warning signs for 'work-at-home schemes'. Although it starts out as an advertisement for the author's own guide, it does provide a valuable summary of how to spot a scam, a collection of current telecommuting job openings and links to other work-at-home sites.
