I have posted about IMShopping a few times, for different reasons.

So, check out IMShopping to find the best deals around!
P.S. When your question is answered, please make sure to give a thumbs up if you are happy with the answer. And, please select a Best Answer.
And, as always, if you want to make a little extra money, you can always sign up at IMShopping as a Community Member and answer shopping questions!
P.P.S. I do NOT get anything when you sign up with my link. IMShopping is not a downline type of site, at all. The user specific links are for general tracking purposes only.
Hello, my name is Wendy, and I am a Stay At Home Mom. With the economy being as it is, I am looking to bring in some extra money.

Panda Research Scam
Here we go again - yet another scam.
Panda research is a survey site. Now, there are many legitimate survey sites, but Panda Research is not one of them.
Panda research offers surveys where you can earn from $3 to $75 each, and also offers email / ad reading for $0.03 to $0.25 each.
So where's the scam? You have to pay / buy one of the offers on the site, in order to claim your money.
Based on research, and forum posts from people that have been scammed by Panda Research, some people did buy the offers to try and get paid. They never got paid, and emails sent to the company went unanswered.
You should NEVER have to pay for a job. If they want your money - they are scammers.
Avoid the scams!

Counting and sorting emails $25h
Hello,
I have a new job. It's a very simple task. Done once a month, takes about 1 hour to do. The task involves you logging into one of my email accounts. Then counting up specific emails that came in for the prior month. Then you'd simply be copying and pasting data from each email into a notepad document. Then simply counting up all the posts. It's very simple to do.
It just takes basically one hour per month. Done each month on the 1st of the month. This is an ongoing job, so I need someone who's use to working from home and can fit this into their monthly task list, so it can be done on time each month. I see this continuing for a long time. The amount of hours could increase over time as the amount of work increases. If you're interested get back to me. You can contact me direct at: contact2222@gmail.com please reference the "Lead Counting Job". Thank you.

Counting and sorting emails $25h
Hello,
I have a new job. It's a very simple task. Done once a month, takes about 1 hour to do. The task involves you logging into one of my email accounts. Then counting up specific emails that came in for the prior month. Then you'd simply be copying and pasting data from each email into a notepad document. Then simply counting up all the posts. It's very simple to do.
It just takes basically one hour per month. Done each month on the 1st of the month. This is an ongoing job, so I need someone who's use to working from home and can fit this into their monthly task list, so it can be done on time each month. I see this continuing for a long time. The amount of hours could increase over time as the amount of work increases. If you're interested get back to me. You can contact me direct at: contact2222@gmail.com please reference the "Lead Counting Job". Thank you.

Changes at IMshopping.com
IMshopping.com is no longer hiring Shopping Guides to answer shopping questions. They have chosen to go to an all Community Member based answering system. I understand why the change was made - it was just good business for them.
For the Shopping Guides that were working for IMshopping.com (I haven't answered questions for a while. Got burned out, and was busy on other projects), it is a definite bummer. The Shopping Guides were guaranteed pay for each question answered, whereas the Community Members compete for Best Answer (worth $1.00), and any tips the person asking the question is offering.
With that said, there is still money to be made. So, give good answers and win Best Answer!
If you have a shopping question, are looking for a particular product, or the best deal, visit IMshopping.com and ask. It's a great website!

Burn Your To Do List - SCAM - Beware!
A WAHM from a forum I belong to, posted this warning about Burn Your To Do List:
Hello everyone,
I am so sorry that I have to come in and give anyone bad news about a company, but I wanted to make sure no other WAHM have to go through the hell I have gone through the last month at my now former job at Burn Your To Do List.
I started working at BYTDL 10 months ago for a very small amount of money (2.00 per article), and within a few months I was promoted to support staff, and subsequently promoted 2 more times to a management position.
As I became more and more involved in the inner workings of BYTDL, I started noticing dirty dealings being done on customers.
They had some policy's that I highly disagreed with, and it was becoming apparent to me that BYTDL scams customers out of money by trapping them into subscriptions.
This was not sitting well with me at all as I was raised to be an honest woman.
I stayed with BYTDL because it was up for sale and I thought maybe a new owner would turn things around as the former owner, Rachel Rofe, wanted to move on to other things.
BYTDL sold in mid-Sept, and I am sorry to say that the new owner, Joe Harkins, is well, not a nice person to deal with.
Over the past 3 weeks I have seen him:
1.Change terms of service without notifying any customers. He sent out an email with no previous warnings and changed the subscription terms and rates of older clients. He did not even have the nerve to sign it with a name, but instead signed it a generic "the BYTDL support team"
2. Has logged into his employees accounts (including mine) and pretended to be them and replied to clients and providers.
3. Called several employees (who have now all quit)and belittled them, (and in some cases flat out lied about them), and borderlines on being verbally abusive.
I handed in my resignation after he called me and spent over 2 hours telling me basically what a crappy manager i am.
I was approached by the former owner, Rachel and she (very nicely) asked me to stay and train a new manager they hired.
I agreed and spent the last week training her and doing my usual work.
I have 4 days worth of skype conversations to prove that I was on all day and made training videos for her.
This was along side doing my normal work, and putting in 9-10 hour days all week.
When Sunday rolled around, (which is payday), I was to train the new lady on how to do payroll. She never showed up. I waited for 10 hours for her to log on to skype.
Several of my friends and co-workers can verify this as they were on all day with me waiting and keeping me company.
When it became apparent that she was not going to log on, I did payroll and sent the files to Rachel (who had been acting as a mediator with me and the new owner).
Payroll subsequently did get done and my friends who work there did get paid.
I, however did not get paid.
They now owe me 600.00 for my last week of work which I doubt I will ever see.
I did not come here to whine, I can and will survive without that 600.00 but my main concern is for anyone else who might be considering working for this company.
It was bad enough that it happened to me, but I do not want to see anyone else get sucked into this scam of a job.
Avoid this place at all cost! They treat employees like garbage and all of their senior staff have left because of it.
They also treat clients very poorly, and are ripping them off.
It will only be a matter of time before they go under due to shady business practices.
I am sorry that it had to come to this, I have always been more of a lurker than a poster, but I felt in this case, everyone needs to know what type of business BYTDL (Burn your to do list) has become.
I had defended them in the past, but they are not worth working for anymore, and it is very sad because it was a great place to work at one time.
Again, I am sorry for this post, but I could not let anyone be put through the same situation as I was.
Since posting this, several people have contacted her saying that they had a similar experience. So sad that this 'company' is taking advantage of good, hard working people.
*UPDATE* 16.Oct.2010
This was posted(on the same forum where the first post is from) by a former manager at the company (she left when things took a turn for the worse):
We now have solid proof that the new owner is slandering former employees with outright lies.
Still not been paid and not sure if anyone else was either.
Avoid any ads for 'Burn Your To Do List'.

Proofreading job SCAM! IRC Publishing / ARC Publishing SCAM
Here we go again.... I belong to a Work At Home forum, where mostly legitimate job leads are posted. A Proofreader job was posted last week, and many of the forum members applied (myself included).
Each and every one of us got the following response:
First, thank you for applying. We received an overwhelming number of responses and have finally narrowed it down to a few candidates.
We've made the decision to work with you temporarily on one or two projects to make sure this is the right fit for everyone. I think this may be the best way to see if this is going to work long-term. I hope so!
There are several hanging projects I would like to finish before we can start on some new websites and newsletters. These miscellaneous tasks should take about a couple of days. I would like to have them completed by the first week of October.
We partner with an agency Real Writing Jobs to manage and track these projects. You will have to go through this portal to gain access and fill in your information on how to get paid as an independent contractor. Checks will come from this agency. There is a registration fee of $2.95. Click above link to go directly to the sign up page.
Once you have completed this process we can get started. I will email you some directions and logins to begin.
I look forward to working with you!

The immediate Red Flag is the fee. Yes, it is a small fee of $2.95, however, you should NEVER have to pay for a job.
In looking into it a little further, that small fee is for a 14 day trial, it is then $47.00 per month.
Based on my research, once you sign up, it is very difficult to get them to stop charging your credit card.
Looking a little further, the person that posted the job ad, and sent the response email is an affiliate of the site (Real Writing Jobs), and receives $18.00 for each person that signs up with her link (referral).
There is no job available (proofreading or otherwise). The scammer is just trying to get you to sign up, so she can make money off of you. Then you sign up for a sight that will repeatedly charge your credit card, for you to look at more fake / scam job postings.
*UPDATE* 14.Oct.2010
There are other people posting for this same job. Exact same form letter, different names, and using the company name i.r.c Publishing, IRC Publishing, a.r.c Publishing. Beware!
*Update* 27.Oct.2010
Thank you to a reader that commented that they received the form letter from a Beth Freeman. Another name added to the scammer list.
Watch out for those scams!
Wishing you all success!
