A recent "work from home" scam, claiming to be run by Google, but really isn't. I show why this one is a scam, and what red flags are raised by this particular scam.

Look for this stuff when something seems like a really good deal.

  • wow.. i thought this channel was dead (last vid 2 years ago).. went looking for those proprietary SFF computer videos again as an example for someone and noticed new videos :O

  • @Knaeckebrotsaege Yeah, I had an issue come up that took me away from extra non-essential work stuff like Youtube for quite a while. I'm hoping to get back to doing stuff regularly, but I'm still dealing with the ramifications of the issue years ago, so I may be sporadic for a while, yet.

  • Awesome video! I liked everything you pointed out here identifying this entire site as a scam, which it's verified to be. You gave some very good tips and I loved your observation skills. Nicely done :) (Just as a random suggestion, I think you should upgrade to Internet Explorer 9).

  • @Starwarsgalaxy1 I don't usually use IE, so I don't care to upgrade to version 9. The only reason I used it here is, as I said in the video, I shut down Firefox with 40-50 tabs open the day before, so it would take a good while to load them all up and become responsive, and since I needed a quick reference for something, I didn't want to wait.

    On the other hand, I do regularly make sure I've got all the security updates for IE8 installed.

  • update! someone that didn't like what you said and thumbed down (i think he works for internet payday)i balanced it out

  • @1638490 Thanks. Whenever you expose something like this, there are always people with a vested interest in it that want to shut you up. They'll either post fabricated comments that look like high praise for the program from someone who got involved in it, or they'll downvote anything that calls their money scheme into question.

    Either that, or it's some idiot that thinks "28 minutes is longer than my attention span! WAAAH! Dislike!" :)

see all
