Mom out thousands of dollars after internet job scam

Working in the hair salon is one of Stephanie Oliver's two jobs. A month ago, she picked up a third one.

"I found an ad on Indeed and it was for a work at home position. I already have a part-time job in the morning and a full-time job. So, I was trying to just make extra money," Oliver said.

Fake Check Scams and Work at home jobs

Oliver worked from home, inputting medical billing codes onto a website for The Good Feet Store in Texas. Or, so she thought.

"I talked to him on the phone. It seemed legit. It was Indeed, it wasn't Craigslist. I feel like it was a legit job," Oliver said.

Oliver was supposed to be paid three times by Paul Andersen, who claimed to work for The Good Feet Company.

She did receive two separate cash payments totaling $750. The last payment, a check for over $2,900, never cleared her bank account.

"I called the place, the Good Feet Store in Texas, asked for him. They said they did not know of him," Oliver said.

After paying for bills with the money she thought she had. Checks are bouncing, now she's out over $2,000.

"I'm just going to have some fun money for my kids. That's just why I did it. It's being returned and there's nothing I can do about it," Oliver said.

Andersen would not answer our calls, he blocked Oliver's number, his website has gone dark and the ad is gone.

Cherie Reese from the Better Business Bureau of Kansas City said things like this happen all the time.

"For scam artists, this is their job. They want to look as legitimate as possible. They're going to go through legitimate websites like Indeed. They'll have their own website that looks incredible," Reese said.

Beware of these common work-at-home scams

Reese said to protect yourself, you have to do your homework first. She suggests going to a company you know is real. If you have someone approaching you about working from home, say no.

Here's how to ask your manager if you can Work at Home

Here are five key things to keep in mind before you approach your manager before you ask to work remotely at at home!  

1. Be awesome at your job
If you’re awesome at your job, you can command the flexibility you want and need. Be the absolute best in whatever it is you do, and your company will bend over backwards to make accommodations for you.

You may be thinking, “but what about the 6-month probationary period before working from home” or “what will people think if I leave at 4:30 p.m. every day?” But the bottom line is this: it doesn’t matter. You’re more likely to get a “yes” from your employer if you do a killer job every day, make your boss’s life easier and be polite and friendly with everyone.

What does this look like? Anticipate your boss’s needs. Give her what she needs before she asks, heck, before she even thinks to ask for it. Solve problems. Work without needing micromanagement. Deliver and communicate the value that you are adding to your organization every single day.

2. Research
You may be doing an awesome job at work, but you still need to know what your company’s current policies are. Is there a probationary period before flexible or alternate schedules are allowed? What are the core hours?

Before you make your ask, examine whether you’re placing your boss in a bad position. For example, if you ask for telework a month before the probationary period ends, will your boss be in hot water for not granting another employee the same benefit

Talk to people in your organization who are currently on a flexible schedule. Is it formal or ad hoc? How did they arrange it? Are there any challenges in their schedule arrangement? Any minefields internally you should avoid?

Tone matters. You don’t want to come across as “I don’t care what the policy says, Sally is working from home on Mondays, and I want that, too.” What you do want to do is leverage the information you dug up for your own schedule needs.


3. Draw up a proposal
Bosses don’t like ultimatums, so put your flexible schedule request in a proposal format. Show that you have researched current policies and norms, evaluated any potential challenges, and anticipate and address any potential pain points.

For example, how will you handle time-sensitive requests from your boss if you are walking out the door at 3:30 p.m. to meet your kids at the bus stop? Maybe it’s promising to answer your phone from 3:30-5:00 p.m. with any urgent questions and will log in from 7:00-8:00 p.m. to answer any requests before the start of the next business day.

Propose a 30-day evaluation period. It’s hard for anyone to say no to anything for 30 days. Consider adding goals and metrics to your proposal and, if approved, schedule the 30-day check-in with your boss right there and then.

“You have to make a business case for what you want,” executive coach Dr. Kiban Turner, Ph.D., told me. “No business really cares about your feelings, your kids, or your elderly parents. But if you’re a great employee, they probably care a lot about you staying in your job. That’s your business case. This case will be even stronger if you have a very specialized skill - where you will be even harder to replace.”

See a Telecommuting proposal letter 

4. Be flexible
Yes, you have family commitments, but this is a J-O-B. You are getting paid to perform specific functions and services, and maybe your proposed schedule doesn’t fit into the real world.

Determine your perfect schedule, and work backwards from there. Maybe your goal is to work from home two days per week, but since no one in your organization is currently doing that, your boss says “no.” Don’t get discouraged. Ask if you can start with one day per week telecommuting, and make sure you absolutely knock it out of the park. When you reevaluate in a few months, you will be negotiating from a position of strength.

“This should be a win-win scenario,” said Andy Rosenberg, a Partner at Washington, D.C.-based government relations firm Thorn Run Partners. “In many sectors, employers who are willing to make flexibility accommodations are at a competitive advantage for talent, especially in a tight labor market like we have been experiencing the last several years.”

5. Over communicate
Keep your calendar up to date, always showing where you are and when. Before signing off for the day, tee up an email to your boss or your team that shows what you accomplished for the day, the status of pending items, and what’s on tap for tomorrow. Leverage all communication tools such as instant messenger and Slack channels to demonstrate that your flexible schedule doesn’t impact your work or your team’s ability to get their work done.

Once approved, own your flexible schedule. Flexible work is still work, never take it for granted and for goodness sake don’t abuse it. Instead, over-deliver while you are on duty and then when the clock strikes the hour of your agreed upon departure, log off with your head held high, knowing you deserve to be where you are.

4 tips to better your work at home experience

Welcome to the wonderful world of working from home! I just want to toss a few things in here that I  found have helped me  in my work at home experience. 

1. Make your area you are going to work, work for you  Set up your work space for what works for you, do you need a super quiet area? Do you need a ton of light? do you need things to keep you motivated? Set up your area to work for you.

How to get Started with Upwork

2. Figure out your desk situation, make sure you have enough room for 2 or more monitors as a lot of jobs do require them, your drink of choice, a place to write to take notes, etc. A busy desk area makes your day harder.

3. You need  good solid chair you will be sitting in that day after day  Good lumbar support is a must Here is what I use 

4. What motivates you? Why are you working are you working at home! Make a vision board with your why!  

How to get Started with Upwork

Upwork is one of the largest global freelancing platforms where businesses and independent professionals come together for online work services. It has 12 million registered freelancers and 5 million registered clients.

Upwork use to be free to apply for jobs this no longer the case. They charge $0.15 charge per Connect. Connects are what you use to apply for jobs each job requires at least 2 connects

Also they have fees these fees are taken straight out of your check. This is not taxes so you still have to pay taxes consider this when you create your hourly rate. **
20% for the first $500 billed with the client
10% for lifetime billings with the client between $500.01 and $10,000
5% for lifetime billings with the client that exceed $10,000

How It Works: You create a profile on Upwork you choose your own hourly rate (companies can decide if they want to pay you your hourly rate of not). Once your profile is approved you can start applying for jobs. You use the search feature to find these jobs (advance search to narrow it down). You submit your cover letter to the job you would like. If the employer is interested they will contact you for an interview.

If your hired on a hourly contract you must use the Upwork time tracker to submit your hours. If you don't payment is not guaranteed. If you do payment is guaranteed.

Fixed price contracts are short projects that pay a flat rate (you have no guarantee with these)

Here are 7 tips how you can get work using Upwork even when you have no experience at all.

1. Have  a Good Profile Picture

One of the very first things that your clients will see from your profile is your picture. When you want to request work from someone, people will want to know your face and who you are. So upload and use a more professional picture of yourself. Unsmiling, grainy and poor quality picture will only show that you are unprofessional and nobody likes to work with people who are not professional.

Get a high-resolution head shot picture with a pleasant smile. And please, no naked shoulders, and try to wear professionally. Never be too shy to show your face when you are out there looking for jobs.



2. Your Language Skills are Important

In the online world, you will contact your clients through the power of words most of the time. And it has no exception when it comes to Upwork. Even if you have no experience, you should mind your language skills because they can win you the contract or worst, fail you.

Small things such as misspellings, texting lingo, and poor grammar are red flags to clients, and this is especially true when you are bidding for professional writing work. You should always check your spelling and read through what you have typed before you send out to your client. Use tools such as Grammarly to help you in this.

3. Create Samples

When you are totally new, you have no experience, no credibility, and no testimonials, but there is one very powerful tool you can create for yourself, and that is the sample of your work.

For example, if you want to be a writer, create a blog and publish some of your own articles there. When you request for jobs, you can use the articles on your blog as your samples. Better yet, you can contribute guest posts on other blogs and then use them as your samples. This will immediately increase your credibility, especially if the guest blogs are popular.

Well, this can apply to many services and not only to writing-related works. If you are into logo design, just design a few and publish them on your websites. You can showcase them to your clients to get them interested in your work.

Side Hustlers Income Reports 

4. Low-Paying Jobs Can be a Great Start

This is one of the mistakes that most beginners will do. They thought that low-paying jobs are not worthy because they have to spend a lot of time to get the work done, yet, the payment cannot justify their effort.

Never underestimate the low-paying jobs. In fact, most big businesses and long-term clients come from low-paying jobs. No one will award a $10,000 job to someone that they do not know or have no past experience with. This means that low-paying jobs are your best bet to connect with clients with a bigger budget. Start small and grow, so never mind the low-paying jobs, just do them.

5. Don’t Be Too Desperate

It is absolutely fine if nobody wants to hire you. The beginning is the toughest. And sometimes, you just do not want to show that you are desperate to get the job. Your desperation will scare your clients away.

Your clients will want to see you as in hot demand and successful. People will want to hire someone good and someone who can deliver a great work, not someone who is desperate.

6. Stay Active

If you are serious to make some money from Upwork, you need to take action and submit your proposals. Do not think that once you have created a nice and great profile, clients will come to you automatically. It does not work that way. You need to go and put your name out there to win the contracts.

Winning a contract in Upwork is a numbers game. The more prospective clients you contact and propose, the more likely you are going to get the work. Somehow, somewhere and someone will want what you have to offer. By the way, never forget to improve as you progress. Learn to create a better proposal and customize it to fit your client’s requirements.

7. Build Your Portfolio

One of the most important keys to success in the world of freelancing is to create your own portfolio. For example, if you want to get jobs on optimizing the search engine for a website, and if you have the Google search engine optimization certification, people will want to give you work.

Credibility and a strong portfolio count. Yes, it may be difficult when you have zero experience, but that does not mean that you cannot build your portfolio from scratch. When you successfully completed a job, request a testimonial from your client. Many freelancers start by picking smaller jobs so that once completed successfully, they can add a testimonial to their victory list. And you should do the same.

Start with one service, make sure it’s something you’re really good at. Fill out your FAQ’s so buyers understand the limitations around your service.

Take every project that you feel you can actually deliver on and get 5 stars.

Make your prices competitive with the competition. The goal is to move up the levels as quickly as possible. Then you can increase your prices. It can happen very fast so don’t over think having your prices low in the beginning

Now that you know what you should do to get work from Upwork even when you have no experience. The best advice is to just take action and do it. It is absolutely fine if you fail to win any contract, but never give up and keep learning until you landed your first job. And things will just get better from there.

I've been using upwork for years now and for you to not be scammed, you have to make sure that all your communications are inside upwork. The contract must also be inside upwork, and don't start any work without contract

5 Places To Sell Your Stuff Online Besides Ebay

When you’re getting out of debt, Dave Ramsey  says to sell so much stuff the kids think they’re next! But how do you make sure you’re getting the most you can for your stuff?


One of the easiest ways to earn money online that just about anyone can manage is selling your stuff. We all have stuff we no longer want or need  hanging around in our homes .  Is your trash someone else's treasure?


And if you don't have your own stuff to sell, it's pretty easy to visit thrift stores, flea markets, yard sales, estate sales, and more to find things on the cheap that you know you could sell for a little (or a lot) more to make a quick profit.


So with that being said, below I've come up with a list of 5 places besides Ebay and Facebook marketplace you could consider using to start selling your stuff online. Many of these you've probably heard of, but hopefully some will be new and interesting.

Mercari


Mercari is a great site — I've bought some things on there myself. But it's not as popular as some of the sites we've listed above. This means that if you list items here, it may take longer for them to sell.


On the upside, Mercari has lower fees than most (just ten percent of the listing price).





Poshmark 


If you have clothes you need to get rid of, Poshmark is going to be one of your best options. It's a very popular app for used clothing, shoes, and accessories. And as a seller on Poshmark, you don't even have to have a computer. You can upload your items directly to Poshmark via the app, complete with pictures. If you sell over $15, Poshmark does take a 20 percent commission off your earnings. This is quite a lot. Still, Poshmark is a great way to quickly unload some of your used clothing. Go here to sign up as a Poshmark seller.



 Decluttr


Decluttr is a great platform to use if you have used books, video games, DVDs, CDs, or various tech devices lying around your house that you no longer want or need.



You are not selling your items to individuals. You're selling them directly to Decluttr. You share with them what items you want to sell, and they'll give you an instant price quote. If you're happy with the quote, they'll pay shipping for you to send the items to them. Then you get paid!

Do you have any makeup or skincare items taking up space in your bathroom drawers that you no longer want or need? It's understandable you'd think that stuff was fit for the trash. But you'd be wrong.

Glambot is a site that will actually buy your gently used or new-but-never-used makeup from you. You just let them know what you have, they'll give you an estimate, and then they will send you a shipping label to get the items to them. If your items are what you say they are and in the condition you described, you get paid!

Glambot will not accept false lashes, skincare, makeup bags or items with reusable applicators (ie. lipgloss, liquid lipstick, mascara, liquid eyeliner pens, etc.) unless you work in the Beauty Industry.

 Listia

Listia makes it possible for you to sell your unwanted items and get free stuff in exchange for those items.



How it works is pretty simple. You just list your used items (all kinds of things are accepted). When other people buy your items, you receive a virtual currency called “Ink.” Then, you can use the Ink to shop on Listia for yourself, purchasing items other people have listed.
