Legitimate employment opportunities that offer work at home options are few and far between. We've solicited Sarah to assist us with research and participation in the work at home "business opportunities" your BBB hears about most. Here's what we found...
Company Name: Freedom Publications, DLH Services, Hill Marketing, Superior Publications
Type of Business: Home Mail Processors
Location: Lake Worth, TX
Upfront Fee: $40.00 +
Payout: $7.00 Per Envelope Mailed
Consumers who call the toll free number are instructed to leave their name and address so job information can be mailed to them. The informational letter received explains that this solicitation is not an offer of employment; it is an opportunity to become an Independent Commissioned Mailer for this company. The company states the initial $40 payment ensures that the employee is serious about working from home. Information received explains that payments of $7.00 per envelope are made to workers in advance of the envelopes being mailed.
Once signed up with the company, workers might be advised to place advertisements in local newspapers at their own cost. Problems experienced with this program include non receipt of products, misrepresentation of the business, and difficulty obtaining a refund.
