working from home - too good to be true?

I have 2 small children and am pregnant with my third. I need to earn a little extra income. In today's local paper there was an ad for data entry clerks working from home. I've looked up the website (not sure if I'm allowed to link to it) and it says each "order" is worth 20 odd quid and full training is given. Trouble is they want a £25 admin fee. Do you reckon this is nothing more than a scam?
And does anyone know how you go about finding home work, especially data entry type stuff?
sorry if this isnt the best place to post

I'd stay clear - anything that asks you for upfront money is likely to be a scam0

Scam, sorry. You should never have to pay to work.
Put the link on, it's allowed

Do you sell on e-bay? If you do, why not look into becoming a trading assistant, it's really easy

I have sold on ebay, but not for a while, although I have a huge box of things waiting to be listed. How do I go about becoming a trading assistant? Do you have any more info or can you point me in the right direction?
