I've seen so many scams out there and I was wondering if anything was legit. The latest thing I've seen is f You’re Interested In Doing This Too, Here’s What To Do:

(Just to let you know, this is not for everyone. You need to be self-disciplined to be able to work on your own at home. Some people really need someone to tell them what to do, and have a hard time working independently. Also, some people have told me that even though it’s easy to make money by filling out forms and doing searches on Google, they end up quitting after a week of doing it because they think it’s boring. I’ll admit, it does get pretty boring doing the same thing over and over again, but I’d rather be bored with lots of money in my pocket than broke! Just thought I would tell you this upfront so you don’t waste your time.)

Step 1: Click Here To See If You Qualify To Get Your Free Google Cash Kit

Step 2: Follow the directions on the website above and set up a Google account (not the same as Gmail). They will give you the links to the forms you need to fill out and what companies you need to do searches for. Google tracks everything for you automatically.

Step 3: Google will start sending you your first check in 5-7 days. Or you can start to have them wire directly into your checking account. (Your first checks will be about $200 to $650 a week. Then it goes up from there depending on how many forms you fill out and searches you do.)

Is this or anything like it for real?

If you mouse over that link and it is not a Google site, run away.

Everything I've seen on it screams SCAM. Yes, you can earn money with Google's AdSense...but if you violate Google's rules you are bounced right out of the program. And these things sure look like a quick way to violate Google's rules.

If you have a website and think you can actually qualify for the AdSense program...https://www.google.com/adsense/login/en_US/

It would be nice if you could get paid $33,000 a year by doing searches, but it isn't very likely in this economy.
If it seems too good to be true......

And if you give them your checking account info...well let's just say funds can be drained as easily as deposited.

Scams are worse than ever right now because scum bags are preying on those that are concerned about the economy.

Be skeptical about anything and everything right now. ;)

All of these types of things are scams. Not a single one is legit.

weight loss miracle pills, sexual enhancement pills, colon cleansers, omega-3 fish oil pills, vitamin C super pills, any commercial heard on coast-to-coast AM, anything with a "free" trial but no ability to actually purchase it, free vacations to Tahiti village, or Vegas, or anywhere, FREE IPODS/PS3/LAPTOPS/TVS, etc, All scams too!

as they say, a fool and their money are soon parted!

I realized this was a scam when they wanted you to pay money, but I remember a very computer savvy person making about $500 a month in a legit way putting up ads on websites of his. I don't remeber the details becuse I really didn't understand it at the time and I no longet work with him. That's why I was asking if there was anything legit left out there.

BTW thanks MJC, he was probabley doing something like that.

if you have a website, utilising Google Adsense might be worth a shot...

or... try setting up a website and look into affiliate schemes.. its not easy, but there is money out there waiting for anybody to take it... it just takes hard work... even from home

aint nothing in this life for free!

aint nothing in this life for free!Affiliate schemes and the people that use them are some of the major scourges of the Internet... Many of the SPAMmers we ban here are pushing affiliate schemes... They can be done responsibly, but many are not...

The best affiliate programs are those associated with major, well known, established firms. I can probably count on one hand those that I trust...
