Why is the general public afraid of online businesses that have a start up fee?

i am a marketing executive II. People keep telling me that if it costs even one penny, then it's a scam. i don't understand this. If you apply for any other job on the streets, and they tell you that you have to have special clothes and shoes, you go right out and buy them so that you can work at that company. Where i work, the cost is less than $100.00 to build your own business, and it is 100% refundable if you don't want to continue. Why am i painted as the bad person, and street jobs that make you buy special clothing and shoes are ok? They don't refund the cost of what you purchased to work at their company, it's just your loss if you decide not to work there. Yet they aren't called scammers.........what's the difference?

Reply:Most are pyramid schemes.....








What are you trying to sell?
Reply:Many are a scam. You should know this. And when you get hired for a job you are guaranteed an hourly or weekly pay amount. Ever read the earnings disclaimers on the websites proclaiming you will make 6 figures your first year?


Many of them are scams in that you can't get a refund. Or you can a year later, and by the time you have tried it "risk free" for a year, it's not even worth it to try to get your money back. If they are still around and in that name by then.


Then there are start up costs that aren't mentioned in all the ad hype that gets you sucked in. And then "back door sales" which are what follows the original sale. They get you for ONLY $49, then get in touch to sell you the "whole" $7,000 system, GUARANTEED to work. Plus the weekly costs of actually putting this so-called $49 plan into action. Advertising? Is there product to stock? If not, what are you selling? Information? That is going to get put into the peer to peer sharing places, then where is your income?


And I can wear those clothes to my next job. Where can I use your plan after it fails? Before you have come THOUSANDS of scams. Pyramid schemes where those at the top made some good money, those at the bottom were screwed. Start your own business from your kitchen table and work in your undies. Oh, and the assembly at home scam. You BUY a kit of parts, they give you directions, then you send in the finished product. Word got around, everyone's work was "rejected" for payment. So many are scams. If yours isn't I will eat your hat. You don't mention how many hundreds of thousands you are making a year? And if you are making so much after not having to buy any clothes, then why are you here complaining? Are you 30 and retired? My dad owned his own legit business ( pizza parlor) and retired well before age 50. That wasn't a scam. People got real pizza, real pasta, and real ribs, and real sandwiches. And if a legit company doesn't pay you, there is the wage hour board, or some other comparable agency to get your pay for you.


That's why. Hope this explanation helped.
