Freelance Writing Scam Update

by Amanda on September 23, 2008

A while back I posted about a website called How To freelance that was supposed to give you access to freelance writing jobs without having to bid for them.  You may recall that it was approximately $10 to sign up for this program.  I signed up and discovered that it was a complete lie and what you actually got was just a lot of rehashed information on how to become a freelance writer.

Today I decided to log back into the website to see if things had improved and if there really was a jobs listing area to this website.  You can imagine my surprise when I went to the website only to discover that it no longer exists and is just basically a page full of google ads.  I really as so disgusted but what can I do.  I have been conned and I’d say there are many more like me out there.  I guess it just goes to show that there really are people out there who will do anything just to make money.

Well I’ve learned my lesson and from now on I’m going to stick with the websites I know.  Has anyone else been scammed like this?  If so please share your story so that we can all learn.

Until next time,

Amanda
