Twitter Scams Lure Work-At-Home Victims
Scammers are using Twitter to lure victims into work from home scams. During this economic recession, workers are desperate for job opportunities and not paying as close attention to potential scams, especially if the job posting is only 140 characters long.
According to the consumer alert, “The ads say “Twitter needs workers..so apply now,” or make cash with Twitter. Twitter is a hugely popular site where people communicate with short phrases. The ads promise big money and say they are trusted ways to make cash. All you have to do is buy something first.”
“It’s the latest twist on the old work from home scam. The Better Business Bureau says these websites have just surfaced, with names like TwitterProfitHouse.com and EasyTweetProfits.com. They promise a risk-free trial period, but the time starts the day you place the order. And if you don’t cancel in time, they charge you.”
