Not all which look promising is true on the internet. Think twice or ten times is better than be sorry later.

Hi there, I am a new mom gonna be and I am staying at home as we (my husband and I) agree that I shouldn’t go to work for the sake of my baby. So I just wake up in the morning, tidy the house a bit, cook a little and voila, the work is done. I have all day to myself.

I am new to computer and even newer to the internet (hello, where have you been all this time?). The fact that I am a new learner in this rapid world has given me a hard path to take and sadly, I fall too. Lucky that I didn’t have to be bandaged (or getting my wallet emptied!) but the experience is still make me uneasy.

As new mom gonna be, I think about money for the kid I am going to deliver. Although my husband works full time and already prepared for all necessities, I think a little extra income will not harm anybody. So I start searching, seeing if I can pull some fortune from the internet (as some people do). In one social networking, I saw the add telling that we can earn as “Mystery Shopper” or something like it. So I give it a click and see a site popping. The 6-figures immediately catch my attention and I almost sign up because the price is so low ($3.99 only!). But thanks to my husband (and God), who always remind me to double check all that I see on the internet, I search for some opinions regarding this site and all search results give out 100% scam. So I cancel my intention and take my rest. No money flowing in, but most important no money flowing out yet.

This is what I learn today, it is better to give it more research, more thoughts before deciding anything. Especially when you are just a newbie.

    Good girl. Glad you did a double check. There are lots and lots of scams out there 90% of it is scam. Be careful and be very discerning. Good article. I’m adding you as a friend. I hope you will add me too. Hey don’t sit in front of the computer too long at a time. It will hurt you, your health. Two hours and get up and move around for at least ten or fifteen minutes. Better for you baby too.
