Eyewitness News Memphis - BBB Warning: Work At Home Scams

Eyewitness News Memphis - BBB Warning: Work At Home Scams: "The Better Business Bureau of the Mid-South has a warning for people looking for jobs online. Watch out for work at home scams.
The BBB received a call from a woman about work home opportunities she was contacted about after she posted her resume on an internet career site. The job descriptions she received were very similar.
The positions required the woman to receive phone calls from their customers that were in her region, collect their payments in the form of a money order, process them using her personal bank account, keep 10% of the charge as her payment, deduct the charges associated with the particular transaction and transfer the remaining funds to the company�s account. One company even included a multi-page representative agreement. The purpose of including such an agreement is to lend an air of legitimacy to the offer. "
