As a general rule, if you have to pay something up-front to a work-at-home company, then it's most likely a scamA confidence game or other fraudulent scheme, especially for making a quick profit; . Be sure to look them up on as many reputable sources as possible.

I would avoid this just because they want you to pay money. Beyond that, it sounds like one of those medical discount card deals that are not actually insurance. None of the medical clinics around here even take the discount cards, so in my opinion, they are a waste of money.

Being asked to pay is not always the first way to identify a scamA confidence game or other fraudulent scheme, especially for making a quick profit; . There is a difference between work at home job and a business opportunity. I picked that up along the way.

I did something similar, ended up paying over 300.00 for being a at home medical billing specialist. This was in the late 90's, but I still remember it to this day. They tell you they will send you all the software you need to do medical billing, with a list of clients that need the work done. What they don't tell you, the list is about 100 clients that have already been contacted, and refused (and sometimes I had found out put a restraining order against the company) - then when that list runs out or is no longer useful to you, you go out into the world and find all the clients, make a huge presentation to hope you get them as a client to then finally begin your medical billing life.

I too have faced a similar site offering me a healthy sum as a part time worker. All they asked me to do is to deposit a certain amount of money. I,unknown of their trick followed the instruction and later on I found it all to be a big bluff.

You must be licensed in all states, by the state to sell any type of insurance (as far as I know), and I know of no insurance company (reputable anyway) that would EVER ask for any money from their prospective agent, except perhaps tuition fees for a class, or licensing fees..I'd always check any and all insurance companies with your states dept of insurance, all companies have to register with their states. All have websites and most (if not all) have 'standings' of all insurance companies allowed to do buisness in their state....

Any job that asks for money up front CAN be a scamA confidence game or other fraudulent scheme, especially for making a quick profit; , but it may not always be one.

The problem lies with knowing the difference between a scam and legitimate job ahead of time, and unless you happen to be some kind of genius or psychic...you may not know until it's too late. Some people are better at picking out the "sure signs" of a fraud than I am.
