Beware! Work-from-Home Scheme Looks Real but Isn’t

I know we usually do product reviews and discounts at 40SomethingReviews.com, but when I saw this I had to make you aware. This is a work-from-home scheme that disguises itself as news from your local area. With the help of a script, they insert the name of your city/town (which can be found from the IP address of your computer) to make it look as if the local news reported on this company. And it looks real, too. I have to admit, they did a good job.
What gave it away? The fact that we don’t have a News 6 in our area. Not to mention, clicking any of the other links at the top of the page (Sports, Weather, etc.) takes you to a sales/sign up page.
Don’t fall for junk like this!
