Side income after the cut
Job offers that cut you first
Starter kits, paid training and sign-up fees: the money flows the wrong way. How to spot them.
If you must pay before you work, the kerf starts before any wood is cut.
Warning signs
- Starter kits, mandatory paid training or registration fees.
- Exact high earnings with no detail.
- No company name, address or contract.
- Pressure to decide today.
- Ask for the legal name and a written contract.
- Search the name with “complaint” or “scam”.
- Do not pay until those checks are done.
If you already paid, keep receipts, contact your bank and report it to your local consumer protection agency.
