Typing from home

Options
Has anyone heard of www.nethomeworkers.co.uk, a company that offers typing from home. They ask for a one-off non-refundable fee of £25 to get you started. I wonder if it is a scam?? Does anyone know of any reputable companies that offers work typing from home.

    Anyone that asks for money from you is likely to be a scam I'm afraid ... x

    Nope, how would they get the typing to you? I suppose they could type it into an email, but they could just print the email and not send it to you.

    Home typing died when everyone got a computer.

    Home typing is alive and is done on a computer at home - and it's called word processing!

    Some companies do use local homeworkers to do word processing.

    I found one local solicitor advertising on local notices board in a Budgens supermarket.

    Certainly agree that OP should not think of paying £25 to a company offering to "get you started". They could only make suggestions about how to market your services and advise on what equipment you need. And you don't have to pay for that sort of advice.
