There are plenty of ways to make money online. You can build websites or you can sell products. Both are legitimate ways for people to make a living online.
However, if you want to avoid scams and get paid for your work, you need to be careful. Here are tips for identifying legit money making jobs online:

1. Research the company. Before signing up for any job, look into the company and its reputation online. Don't just check their website. Search for reviews about the company in forums and social media sites like Facebook and Twitter. If others are complaining about them, there's a good chance something isn't right with that company or their pay rate is too low.

2. Ask questions before signing up. Before committing to doing any work, ask questions about how long it will take and what they will require from you in terms of time commitment or skills/experience level needed for your job role at the company (if applicable). If they don't answer these questions, don't sign up because this could mean that they're not genuine about their intentions towards helping you out with your project or task requirements.

There are various scamming websites out there nowadays in the name of investment sites and some even called themselves forum sites and freelancing but all what they do is wait for the right and perfect time to wipe all their members and investor's miney clean and run away , take for example the ponzi and HYIP investment schemes that normally uses one customers investment money to pay the other because they know people will rush the investment of they realise they are paying , so they wait fornthe perfect time when people are trooping into the sites and run away with people's money .
So what you need to do in order not to fall into their dirty scheme is make sure you make the neccesary research on Google , YouTube and other places where you can get to know the authenticity of the site before investing into the investment site .

Scammers are always out to deceive people and I know the way anyone can stay away from being scammed online is to try not to be greedy.

I have come to realise that the scammers know that people are always looking out to double their money so they come up with all kinds of hypes for their site online so as to attract people so if you are the greedy one you will fall for it so the first thing is to keep do it or where so that you will be able to see when you are about to be scammed

Because truth be told the signs are always there but people are always blinded by the amount involved if it is a company it is good to do your research and find out how genuine that companies is, if it is an investment site also is to investigate and to be sure you are not dealing with the scammers.

well, as long as people keep showing desperation there would never be an end to online scam, as an individual, you should not be desperate to earn, take your time to research before committing and also make sure you check the website's security, before entering any personal or financial information on a website, make sure it is secure. Look for signs that the website is secure, such as a padlock icon in the address bar or "https" at the beginning of the website's URL. This indicates that the website is using secure, encrypted communication to protect your information.

You should also, be wary of opportunities that promise easy money with little or no effort on your part. Making money online requires effort and dedication, and there are no shortcuts to success, trust your instincts and be on the lookout for red flags. If an opportunity seems too good to be true, it probably is.

Scammers are devising new strategies in order to be successful in their activities on the internet and that is the major reason why it is important and necessary for you to be very careful before you sign up on any platform on the internet.

The first thing you should do before you sign up on any platform is to carry out proper research on different platforms to know the opinion of people about such platforms.

After that you also need to ask on different forums to see if anyone has actually worked on the platform before. As a newbie I will also advise you will never to invest your money In any kind of platfform until you have proper knowledge of how it works.

There are several Ponzi platforms online and if you're not careful you will get scammed. I have actually fallen for so many of them and at the end of the day I learnt my lessons.

The avoidance of scam when trying to make money online is definitely one of the most difficult activity in majority of people have been encountered with. And these have totally destruct and obstruct their ability to make money online as a result of them being afraid to invest their money so as not to be stolen by scammers and fraudsters. It is definitely okay to feel afraid to make money online as a result of scamming website and fraudulent platforms growing in numbers these days, however it is definitely necessary for each and everyone of us to understand that we cannot totally eradicate scamming and fraudulent websites online but instead we can reduce our chances of being a victim or subject to them.

One of the possible ways to reduce the chances of being a victim or subject to fraud event and scamming platforms is by making use of a scam site detector tool or mechanism. Basically this is a tool that helps an individual to detect whether a website is legit or not and if a website is paying or possibly a waste of time.
