work at home scams- what is real?

August 1st, 2009 | by admin |

|J|A|K|E| asked:


I am 19 years old, and I work 3-4 days a week and go to school. I really need to supplement my income and was told by a friend to look into medical (transcribing?). Is this legit? Does anyone know any thing similar to this? Any info is appreciated.

    You need to have experience and familiarity with medical terms to do this.

    Medical transcripting is NOT a scam, but it is a very difficult field to enter as the present players guard their empire jealously.

    It would be very, very difficult ( probably impossible ) for you to be able to get into this kind of field without knowing something about the medical industry, and knowing people in the industry.

    Hospitals and doctors need to assign their paperwork to trustworthy people because of the nature of the business - so they will not simply up and give you business just because you hang up na sign saying Medical Transcripting here.

    There are many scams on the internet offering huge pay for this - but they are scams. They want money for “instructions” or a “starter kit”, which is just useless stuff.

    i was once like you.i am 20 years old and i was at school not long ago and only working on the farm. I was fascinated about ways of making money on the internet.I went searching for a real work at home business and came across a website that ended up changing my life.

    at first i was skeptical.the guy on website claimed to make over $100,000 a month. I thought it looked like a bit of a scam at first as i was used to seeing websites that looked similar to this and made outrageous claims.

    but as i read further and listened to the audios/videos where you could actually see and listen to the millionare owner of the company was actually when i realised that it was for real.

    I got signed up straight away and within my first 2 months made on average between $1-$2,000 a day. It is quite easy when you have quality support and ongoing training as well as excellent marketing material to get people to your website from online millionares that actually know how to make a real living online.

    Medical transcribing is a very lucrative enterprise. Unfortunately, you have to be very well versed with medical terminology and have a good ear to discern the voices of medical practitioners who may have heavy accents when dictating tapes. On the other hand, here’s another alternative home enterprise which is outlined below.

    If you have a functioning telephone with call forwarding features, you can set up a small phone answering service which can provide the lunch break and appointment relief for small medical and legal practitioners. This is how it works: You have a contract with these practitioners to allow them to forward their switchboard calls to your home telephone. While the regular staff is on a lunch or regular afternoon break, you answer the phone and take down any appointments and relevant notes. You charge a fee based on .10th of an hour, i.e., up to 15 minutes is .25 hours, a half hour is 0.50 and 45 minutes is .75 and finally an hour is 1.00. The attractiveness of hiring your service is the clearness of your voice [hopefully without an accent] and the savings to regular staff members not having to stay around or arrange their breaks just to cover switchboard calls. And you may not want to limit this service to these practitioners and offer it to any number of restaurants [taking reservations]; private schools [which gives out information to prospective students], etc.

    Good luck!
