The Honest Work From Home Success Forum Helps to Stop Rip-Off of Internet Workers

The HWFHS Forum is continuing its fight to make the internet a safer place in 2012. The section has already received several hundred posts and thousands of hits. Some of the most common scams the FTC found online included business coaching, home crafting jobs, rebate processing and conducting internet searches. The "Scam Beware" part of the forum has several sections where members of the forum can post warnings about potential scams and their experiences with them. Paul Lynch said "While the new guidelines are welcome the best thing consumers can do is research thoroughly before they give anyone a cent of their money". New FTC guidelines for business opportunities came into place on March 1st 2012 with the aim of providing additional protection to consumers seeking to work from home . A recent report from the FTC in the USA has recently estimated that just 1 in every 55 work at home opportunities is legitimate. Paul Lynch the founder of the forum said "We are finding that many of our new members are coming to us having lost hundreds or even thousands of Dollars on internet scams". From this date people selling and promoting work at home business opportunities have to disclose a number of key facts. These include the sellers identifying information, refund policy, claims about earnings as well as previous legal action involving the seller. He went on to say "Forums like ours offer people a safe community where they exchange ideas, experiences and opportunities safely with like-minded people".
