Rule No:7 - Read the Fine Print

Scam Home Business as you know is based on deception and witholding of crucial information that prevents an honest buyer from making an informed decision and leads people into "thinking" that they have got the best offer in the world and if they miss out on it, they would never be able to forgive themselves.

Let me give you an example. Quite often you would have a $1 offer being given because the advertiser has made millions of dollars and he wants struggling income seekers to benefit from the offer and tell the whole world of how fantastic the advertised "program" has been to them. Another example would be an announcement of a lottery winners and you are "invited" to claim your "prize money."

Do not get me wrong, there are genuine offers on the internet. However, the ones to watch out for are the ones that do not tell you the actual cost or "requirements" upfront.
You never get to know the actual cost and all through the spiel,the price is $1 in bold print until you order it and then
on the order form, somewhere in the corner the price of $100 written in such fine print that you would need a high powered telescope to read it.

The question is: Why would any honest,legitimate business want to hide the price details until the very last second of a customer ordering the product?

So my advice would be to read everything, especially what's written in fine print and avoid being a victim of a bogus lottery organization or scam home based business

Hi Gabriel,

Keep writing against scammers! I hate those too!

People need more awareness on what's going on. Because of the internet rush, most of the people tend to lose their common sense and make mistake they would never make in the real world!
