Like many adults today, I am interested in working from home and having more freetime. I'm not interested in a get rich quick scheme, I just want to work and make honest money. Unfortunately I am finding that the internet is full of work at home scams, many of them linked to ABI Enterprises.
ABI's website reels you in with an ad that states you will get $4 per circular that you stuff. They even go on to explain that big companies do this so that don't have to hire someone and pay them health insurance. They then ask for $24.95 to send you the start up materials, stating that you will never have to buy postage or other materials.
A few days later you receive a package explaining that there are no companies that would pay someone $4 per circular because they all have a machine that can do it faster. Basically you make money (but not $4 per envelope) by xeroxing their flying and getting people to buy the same booklet you just bought.in the end nothing ever gets sent out but this same booklet.
Of course I was outraged and asked for my money back. I was sent an email telling me I should be more openminded and respectful of their business. I was then told that sure, they will refund my money, AFTER I get 20 more people to buy there booklet. No thanks, I'd rather make an honet living.
