Rebate Processor Jobs Are Scams!
[See our analysis of Angela Penbrook's rebate processing offer here.]
Steve is in the shower washing the scam off, so I get to write the full review of rebateprocessorjobs.com. Like absolute suckers, we had to spend $39 of our hard-earned dollars, signed up and prepared to make tons of money. However—surprise, surprise—it’s not what the sales page led us to believe. Here’s the short review: to say that these are “jobs” is a bald-faced lie. It’s affiliate marketing. The sales page says you’ll make $15 per rebate processed. What it doesn’t tell you is that the $15 is what’s left of your sales commission after you send a rebate—from your own money—to your buyer.
Here’s the long review:

How to get real jobs
Together we can put misleading Web sites out of business
Why you’re here
You’re probably here because you’ve searched for ways to earn money online. The Google gods sent you to sites saying they would help you get a job processing rebates at home. You thought, “Hmmm…that sounds pretty good. I can do that.” But you decided to look around a little to see if the site is legit. You searched some more and that brought you to us.
You came to the right place. Unlike other sites that say “we’ve tried them all and THESE are the legitimate ones,” we are not an affiliate of rebateprocessorjobs.com. We try stuff out and give you the straight truth.
What the site leads you to believe
Rebateprocessorjobs.com targets people who are searching for online jobs or other ways to earn money from the Internet. It counts on you being a little bit desperate and it appeals to your emotions by telling you that your money problems can be over and you can have the lifestyle you’ve always wanted.
It claims that you can make a lot of money by processing rebates at home, and it leads you to believe that this processing is “a job.” Well, it kind of depends on the meaning of the word “job.” If it means “work in which you throw up advertisements all over the Web in hopes that someone will buy from your ad,” then yeah, I guess it’s a job. But Rebateprocessorjobs.com knows that you don’t think of a job that way, so it’s lying by intent. Note to Rebateprocessorjobs.com: Hey! Yeah, you, “Cindy Dalton!” Here’s what “job” means: An agreement with an employer in which you exchange your time and skill for an agreed-upon amount of money. Of course, they already know that. They’re counting on you thinking that. The sales page is expressly written to lead you to believe this.
The site leads you to believe that you’ll get a job processing rebates. You think, like I did, that such a job would involve companies telling you which customer have made a qualifying purchase, and then paying you to do the necessary typing and stuff. This is not the case. The “company” making the sale is you through your Clickbank ads. The “forms” you’ll fill out to “process” the rebates are the fields necessary to send your money to the buyer from your PayPal account.
Rebateprocessorjobs.com also claims:
- “Make money simply by filling out online forms”
- Enter the data into the forms that we provide you, click submit, sit back and collect the money
- You’ll earn $15 per rebate processed
- You can make this much money:
2 a day @ $15 each=$210 per week or $840 month or $10,080 a year.
6 a day @ $15 each=$630 per week or $2520 month or $30,240 a year.
15 a day @ $15 each=$1575 per week or $6300 month or $75,600 a year. - Opportunities like this do not come by every day.
The truth
All of these claims have kernels of truth to them, but they are intentionally misleading.
- “Make money simply by filling out online forms.” This is a lie. You won’t make money by filling out the forms like you would if it were a real job. You make money IF someone clicks on the ad you created by filling out the form AND THEN buys the product!
- Enter the data into the forms that we provide you, click submit, sit back and collect the money. Again, it’s far from that simple. The forms are not “provided” for you by this site. They are part of the process of creating a Clickbank ad. And you can’t just create the ad (i.e., “click submit”) and expect to make money. You have to somehow get that ad in front of LOTS of people so that someone will click and buy. There’s no “sitting back” involved.
- You’ll earn $15 per rebate processed. Yeah, and my grandma’s a super model. Here’s how they came up with that number. IF you sell a $37 product from Clickbank and IF the commission is $23.50, and IF you offered a rebate in your ad for $8.50, the difference of $15 is yours to keep! Woo-hoo! What about the bajillion products in Clickbank that are not $37, and for which the commission is not $23.50? Rebateprocessorjobs.com doesn’t say.
- You can make this much money:
2 a day @ $15 each=$210 per week or $840 month or $10,080 a year.
6 a day @ $15 each=$630 per week or $2520 month or $30,240 a year.
15 a day @ $15 each=$1575 per week or $6300 month or $75,600 a year.
This is utter nonsense. As you know by now, you won’t make $15 for each form you fill out, so all of these numbers are purely theoretical. They are only possible IF you put your ads in front of enough people AND enough people click on your ads AND enough of those who click make a purchase AND you’ve chosen Clickbank products with a commission of $15 or more. - Opportunities like this do not come by every day. Yes they do. Hundreds of them, day after day after day.
Once you’ve paid your money (which is nonrefundable), you learn the full story. Here’s how it all goes down:
- You sign up at Clickbank, an online clearing house of thousands of products
- You choose products you want to sell
- You create ads for those products
- You plaster those ads all over the ‘Net (this step could cost you money)
- You somehow get people to see your ads. (the site doesn’t tell you this, nor how to do it)
- You somehow get them to click on your ads, not the
dozens hundredsthousands of other ads from your competitors (the site doesn’t tell you how to do this) - You only earn a commission IF someone buys the product you’re selling after clicking on the ad you created. Read that again!
- You send part of your commission back to the buyer
Wait…where’s the rebate? Where’s the processing? You see the last step? That’s the rebate. The “processing” is when you look at the email addresses of your buyers and manually send them money through PayPal. Not quite the “job” you were expecting, is it?
Inside Rebateprocessorjobs.com
When you pay your $37, you get instant access to the member’s area of Virtual Training Solutions. The first page you’ll see in the “members area” is a list of other money making scamsopportunities. The generous folks at Virtual Training Solutions (which is the “members area” of rebateprocessorjobs.com) give you access to all of these for no additional charge! The links below are to I’ve Tried That reviews on each topic:
- Paid surveys
- Mystery shopping
- Rebate processing
- Pay to read e-mail and surf
- Data entry, transcription, customer service jobs
- Non-computer work from home
- Hand out free samples
- eBay and wholesale
- Paid to drive your car with ads on it
If you click on the links in the members area, you’ll be taken down an endless road of the site’s affiliate links: things they are trying to sell you so they can earn the commission.
Continue to the Rebate Processing section and you’ll get full instructions on the steps I numbered for you above. The steps they outline are true, and the instructions are reasonable, but by now, a buyer will have realized that this is not a job like they were promised. There’s no way in hell you’re going to sign up for this bullshit “opportunity” and start pulling in money right away.
Other rebate processor “jobs” sites
Seen one, seen ‘em all. Folks, they’re all the same. I don’t care what the url is or what the sales page says. If they promise you big money processing rebates, they’re selling you the same stinky cheese. EZrebateprocessing uses identical images to show you how the program works, so I know the program is the sam. But it charges $197!! If you must throw your money away, I suggest flushing $37 rather than $197. Or better yet, send it to me via PayPal at joe[at]ivetriedthat[dot]com. I’ll at least say, “Thank you” and will still be here in the morning!
Be wary of the following individuals and sites:
Angela Pembrook (or Penbrook) at myrebateprocessor.com (BBB Report: F) (Also see our write-up of Penbrook here.)
Cindy Dalton and Rebate Processor Jobs at rebateprocessorjobs.com/ (BBB Report: F.)

But Joe, don’t people make money with affiliate marketing?
Of course they do. A lot of people make some money. Some people make a lot. But it ain’t gonna be you! Here’s why: “you” are the target audience of rebate processing scammers, and you’re here to check it out. You need money soon, not years down the road, which is how long it will take you to build up a respectable income with affiliate marketing. Most people will give up with Step 1 when they see the hopeless volume of products and commissions that is Clickbank. And if you really want to build an affililate marketing business, you don’t need a membership to some crap site to do it. Just sign up at Clickbank and then educate yourself online about how to do it successfully.
How to get real jobs
Whew! That just might be the longest post I’ve ever written. If you’re still with me, I hope you trust me by now to give you the unvarnished truth. Here it is: you’re not going to get rich by processing rebates, data entry jobs, paid surveys, etc. You can make some change with these programs. The best source we know of to get real jobs with real paychecks is our e-book. It will teach you exactly what you need to do to get a job using the Internet, without all the BS. And best of all, you get to decide how much to pay. Get yours now.
Together we can put misleading Web sites out of business
Scams like this one thrive on ignorance and emotional appeal. You can help put these guys out of business by spreading the word about this post and the dirty tricks of scammers that want to kick you when you’re down.
Hi, I certainly thought you were onto something with the”Bans sites”. Why have you digressed to an obvious waste of time such as Rebate Proccessor Jobs? I suspect your Bans site would become profitable if you explored and applied methods of promoting it. Herein lies the difference in making it and notmaking it. Mick
That’s what we do, Mick. We try stuff out and report it here. And the BANS review is still ongoing.
Thank -YOU—–YOU just saved a great deal of time and money
What do you know about Global Cash Flow Network?
Glad to hear it, Ron. Have you seen our “I was saved” total on the front page? It’s a count of the dollars our readers have not spent on junk after reading our reviews. How much were you going to spend?
No, we don’t know anything about Global Cash Flow Network. Just the name sounds fishy, though.
I wish that i would have come across this before the money was spent.
what about angel brooks with processing for blockbuster, home depot and the gap? do you know any thing about that processing?
I tried to buy this $197 prgrm 3x unsuccessfully because of the service they use to purchase the prgrm. Thank goodness too because I really do not have $200 to flush down the toilet. I decided to check the BBB on this company and they have 3 complaints that can’t be researched because the company wont respond. I still was going to spend the money (why, I don’t know)until I came across your site and found out why there were complaints with the BBB. Thank you, you saved me $197.
Michelle it just so happens we’re having a special sale on our book for only
$451,$321, $196! The offer is good today only and will only last for the next seven seconds. So, buy now!In all seriousness, glad we can help. I’d hate to know someone was scammed out of nearly $200. It’s disgusting what these people get away with.
LOOK WHAT I FOUND….
After futher looking into things an the rebate processing on the blockbuster with angel brooks, more research has found it to be angel stevens. THE LAST NAME WAS CHANGED. was it due to marriage or just a ploy to get someone to buy? even if her real name is angel? MAKES YOU THINK.
Brenda, we haven’t looked into “Angel Brooks” or Stevens or whatever “her” name is. (I guarantee you it’s neither of those.) I couldn’t find the site, actually. I found Angel Penbrook offering rebate processing secrets for $197. Could that be it? Maybe I’ll write up a review based only on the very large warning signs all over her site.
I’m excited, Michelle! Go treat yourself to dinner and a massage with the money. You’ll get a much better return on that investment.
Well, add me to your total saved for $197.00. Angela Penbrook was the name I found. Glad I researched a bit and found out that all is not as she would have me believe. Thank You so much for putting this info out there !!
this is the link that was given to me to register myself in the program: Link removed. Sorry Brenda, can’t have spam affiliate links floating around. -Steve
by the way if you are interested in knowing the type at home program is something simular instead of clickbank it uses paydotcom.com .food for thought. i have spent loads of money on these different programs and nothing to show for it but myself futher in debt.
Thank you, thank you, thank you. I almost spent the $197 on Angela Penbrook’s rebate processing scam. I am so thankful that I decided to listen to my spirit and do a little investigating and I found you and your site. Keep up the good work. God knows I don’t have $200 dollars to spare or I wouldn’t be looking for another way to make income besides my regular job as a bookkeeper. God Bless you and the work you are doing in exposing those people out there who are exploiting the desperate people who are in need of supplementing there income because of a need.
I always say i will not pay money to make money and I was getting so desprate with money problems that i actually was considering paying the $197 dollars. Thank you so much for saving me from flushing what little money i have left for the week. cindy
I wrote a detailed Email explaining what rebate processing is, but apparently the owners of this site are afraid to let the truth be known. Basically you try free products, or spend $1-$5, and are paid $25-$150 for completing a rebate offer. You can also make over $2000 for refering others to do the same. I would explain in much greater detail, but I doubt they’ll allow this to be posted.
Jeru, your comments were picked up as spam. Why not just post the “greater details” instead of asking people to email you first?
@ Jeru: No, apparently you’re just paranoid. There’s no grand conspiracy to hide “the truth.” Maybe our spam filters picked up your email if it contained links? At any rate, we never saw it.
The rebate processing you describe is nothing like the program reviewed here, so don’t act like you have some magical rebate processing job that we’re trying to keep secret. Go ahead and explain what you’re doing in detail. No links, though.
The only link in the original post was my email, which I see you removed. And FYI to anyone else reading this, there was a sentence instructing people to contact me for greater detail about rebate processing. Thats what STEVE is refering to. Honestly, I thought maybe you took my original post off either because you don’t want you readers to be aware of the real rebate processing, or it was too much information in the first reply, so I shortened it. Anyway, the real rebate processing idustry works like this:
At the top you have major American & Canadian companies that pay Rebate Marketing sites to drive traffic to them, they in turn pay independent reps and companies to bring people to them to process rebate offers. I have no idea, what companies like Blockbuster, NetFlix, Stamps.com, Paypal, Disney, and several others pay the Rebate Marketing sites, but apparently its enough where they can in turn afford to pay companies like mine $250-$2500 for the rebates being processed. We in turn pay people anywhere from $25-$150 for each rebate that an individual processes. There are four major boards that the vast majority of rebate processing companies and indepdent reps, that will pay you $25-$150 for each rebate you process, can be found. The rebates consist of trying products on a Free Trial Basis, although you may have to pay a small fee for shipping & handling. When you become more experienced you can then collect the $250-$2500 and pay someone else the $25-$150 for processing the rebates. Realistic income in this business, with 40-50 hours of work per week, the propper training to maximize your speed and development, and all the neccesary tools (which should cost you no more than $200.00 total) is about 3K per month your first month, 5K your third month, and consistently 10K or above by the sixth. We created a program which allows a person to be trained properly for a cost of $95.00, we then give them (8) rebates for our company at the end of their training, (which is no longer than 5 hours) and we pay anywhere from $18-$50 for each of these rebates, which totals $228.00 paid. This covers their expense of training and puts money in their pocket, and teaches them everything they need to continue generating income in this industry.
To my knowledge, there is only one (1) other company that offers training on real rebate processing, and they don’t take you by the hand like we do. The other people in this industry make to much money processing rebates to care about selling programs or training others. We take the time to do it because its profitable, and it increases the size of our industry, which is good for us all in the long run. Angela Stevens, Angela Pembrook, Cindy Dalton, and all of the rest of these crooks, trying to pass off sales and marketing crap as rebate processing give our industry a bad name. I hate them as much as you do, it takes potentially productive rebate processors, and turns them into skeptics, or worse, completely turns them off on the idea. If the guys that run this show would let me post our Email, I would give all of you an opportunity to get started in the real rebate processing industry.
Steve,I am sorry I do not want to spam. That was not my intention. I thought it would be helpful to you in you research on the matter.
Jeru, If what you say is true then I know that i would surely be a person interested in more details. The problem I see here is that I do not know how you would get it to me or how I would be able to request it from you.
??????????????How can i get the information????????????????
Jeru, thanks for the additional details. We will be happy to post your email, and maybe even have you write a full review of “real” rebate processing jobs…when we’re convinced that that’s actually what you’re offering. Our readers are often desperate for at-home work, so we’re pretty strict about screening job offers. If you’re telling the truth, you won’t mind a few questions, I hope?
1. Does the training your company offers include instructions about affiliate marketing? Is affiliate marketing any part of the potential income you cite above?
2. What do you mean by “process rebate offers?” As you acknowledge, there’s lots of room for skepticism when the rebate processing sites out there think “process rebate offers” means “sell stuff through Clickbank ads and send some of your commission to the purchaser.”
3. I don’t understand how a rebate is involved in trying something on a trial basis. Does it mean, for example, that I could buy a widget for $50 less a rebate, try it out, then send it back and get my $50 back and keep the rebate?
Care to send me a link to your offer? joe[at]ivetriedthat[dot]com.
Our training program is four basic parts.
1st - PART 1: (BASICS & PROCESSING YOUR 1ST REBATES)
2nd - PART 2: (HOW TO FIND AN UNLIMITED AMOUNT OF REBATES)
3rd - PART 3: (MAKING LARGER PROFITS BY PAYING FOR REBATES)
4th - PART 4: (MAKING ADDITIONAL INCOME FROM DAY 1 WITH REFERALS)
To answer your questions one by one:
Yes, part four is refering others to my company for a 50/50 split ($47.50/$47.50) on all sales generated by your refferals. However, this we feel is very fair, since we answer any questions the potential customer may have and accept payment, you do nothing more than post ads on free sites toward the end of your work day, refering them to us. This is the last thing you learn, and is additional income to whats listed in the other post.
Process Rebate Offers in detail means exactly this. Go to the link provided by the rebate processing company or independent rep…..choose a prize for completing the requirements of the site, NOTE*(This prize is in addition to the payment you recieve from the refferer, and is usually $250-$2500)…and sign up. Once you sign up you then order products on a free trial basis, to complete your 1st part of the offer, NOTE* (This is what you recieve $20-$150 for from the refferer), and that is it. Big Note* (You do have to cancel the offer before the end of your trial, and you may have to try more than one product to complete your requirements. Also the pay is relative to what your expense is for shipping/handling and other mandatory fees). If you get $15-$25 your expense is $0, if you get $26-$50, your expense is $1-5$, if you get $51-$75, your expense is $5-$10, if you get $76-$100, your expense is $10-$15, if you get $101-$150, your expense is $15-$25. When you have done enough of these you will have experience and money so that you can pay others and instruct them on how to complete the same offer sites the most efficient and fastest way through your link. For reffering 5-30 people to one of these sites and walking them through completing the offer you get your prize of $250-$2500 from the site. You don’t give any of your commission to the purchaser, or even deal with Clickbank, we pay you for completing the offer, and you learn how to do the same. Simple math will show you that if you complete 6 offer sites a day averaging $50 after expenses, than you make $300 in your Paypal account. If you complete the refferal requirements of the same 6 sites in a month and the average prize payout is $1500 you make $9000.
I do not have a fancy ripoff site which lies to you. I do not have links to blinking offers that tell you buy within the next 30,29,28 seconds. We market our training minimally as the real money for us, is in both processing rebates and reffering others to process rebates. The crooks of the internet world specialize in tactics designed to make you buy, and giving you crap that is worthless, because their profits come from how many financially hurting people they can trick. We simply advertise on the free classified sites, and allow others to refer people to us, than we explain the whole shebang to them just like this. If they want to train with us we actually pay them ($95 in, $228 out), of course the real dough for us is in getting the $1000+ prizes. Thats pretty much it and if you guys or anyone is interested in the training we offer, its $95 and we are more than happy to answer any and all questions you may have. We can be reached at
I like the sound of that last paragraph about not having a flashy site. Brenda, if you look into it, let us know how it goes.
I’m glad I decided to research “rebate processing” before I blew my precious hard earned money on such a scam. Thanks for the heads up.
i think all online money making markets are scams,why don’t they let you try the site first and make some money then pay them back after you make the money? because they know you won’t make the money they just want your money!
DON’T BELIEVE WHAT THESE SITES SAY. JUST GO WORK FOR YOUR MONEY THE OLD FASHION WAY OR FLUSH THE MONEY DOWN THE TOILET AND SAVE YOUR TIME!
Your friend humbolt
i have purchased this andtried to get on the site and couldnt. it was bought on feb 14 at 7;29 pm. i was lead to believe it was legiate. i am a single mom who has lost her job , with a daughter who has cancer. i only went this route so i can be there to take care of her. i have been trying to find ways to get my money back. no head way. i need the money real bad. if you could tell me how to get the money bacck it would be greatly appreciated. the ladies name on the website was brenda meyyers thanks terry
i got suckered for 197 bucks i just didnt see your site in time and just started to try to get my money back rite see how that turns out any way just think ill shoot this computer being that im not responsibe enough to have on any more or so my wife will think
Josh, I feel for you, man. You could point out to her all the scams you didn’t join.
I was interested in website that Joe is offering. If I understand you, I will reply to the e-mails I get for free items (just spend 4 hours jumping through all the hoops we can come up with). At the end I give you the prize or cash and I get $25.00-$50.00. I don’t mean to sound cynical, but that sounds like as big of a scam as going through the hoops for myself. Am I missing something. I am hnestly loking for a legitimate at home business and am really getting sick of all the cr%p. And how come when you google thomasprocessingenterprises the first line is to send you money for a “report” and then the link goes to classifieds where the add has been removed. You just wrote your entry here on the 1st. I am a very hard worker but my wife and I have a special needs child. Her job pays more than mine did. Now Ineed to suppliment our income from home. I am a strong believer in entrepreneurship, but i HATE con-artists. I look forward to a response. Bobby
Good job Joe and Steve, looks like you may have saved some people more money!!!! I have researched as well and cannot find a rebate processing online job that I feel like throwing money into. Proof of payment would be nice. Jeru put us in touch with some of your happy members and we can hear what they have to say as well.
Sorry about the mistake. I meant the company that Jeru was talking about
Good luck finding work out there Bobby, but it can be had online, for free!!!! But it is all work. Check in the forums here and look at my site as well. Sign up for the forum, and connect with others with the same concerns and issues, we can all trade ideas there.
@Mortimas: Yeah, it’s been pretty cool. We love it when people speak up in the comments and say we’ve saved them money. Search engine traffic on “rebate processor jobs” is pretty hot right now.
We also love it when they buy our book for
$50$40$25$10whatever price they want to pay, but whaddya gonna do? Can’t hard sell to people you’ve just saved from spending money.Whew!……am I getting an education, unfortunately it cost me $197.00. Like so many well meaning people I to was looking for a way to supplement my income by working online. I admit I fell for the add of Angel Stevens, and I quote “#1 work at home consultant in America”. All I needed was 60 minutes and she would show me a certified, proven and guaranteed way to make $225 and more every day. After paying my money I filled out a form to see if I qualify to be coached by an internet guru who did not know anything about Angel Stevens program. I decided to ploy along anyway and like most I found what was promised was nothing like what they were instructing me to do. I then started to do some invesigating and googled Angel Stevens and found many sites like yours that cofirmed my suspicions I had been had…..I also received another email from “Process from home”…This time the name was Angela Pembrook claiming to be the ” #1 work at home consultant in America ” Angel must have left the country….with my money. I would like to know if anyone has ever got the money back from this group?
Nice one Joe, I just bought the book, just because of that comment.. I bought the cheap version and will buy a second copy if I like it!!! make sense? Thanks for the options.
Good job, guys. I sense your sincerity in this project of “outing the bad guys”. Don’t have any misgivings about selling your book, either — the time and research you put into this project is valuable to those of us out there nearly victimized by these scams. It’s worth paying for that information; so much better than paying for a deceptive scheme that just leaves us more broke, economically and emotionally.
BTW, please don’t post Jeru’s email here. If you do, I suspect you’ll have given in to a spammer’s relentlessness. Though Jeru may (possibly) sincerely believe in his program’s legitimacy, he can’t sincerely expect to post a link that will potentially be perceived as spam by the participants of the “I’ve Tried That” community. If he wants his program to be tried, he simply needs to fill in the Website field when he makes his post; people can choose whether they wish to visit or not. Also: Would there be a way to ensure that the Website URL can not be an affiliate link?
I’ve posted my email address in the Website filed of this post simply to see if my email address would be appear there as a link. I understand if you fellows delete this post; I don’t want to give any potential spammers any ideas.
I’m not a SEO expert, but my understanding is that nobody knows precisely how Google’s algorithm (search engine nuts & bolts) works. What *is* known is that when you allow a website’s URL to be posted to your own site, it seems to help that website’s ranking in Google’s listings. In other words, the more site’s that link to a website, said website will be listed higher in certain search queries.
I wonder, however, if a website will be ranked *lower* when it is linked to by a site that is publishing *negative* terms? ivetriedthat.com includes terms like “scam” and “spammer”, et cetera — there’s even the term “scams” in this particular page’s URL — and I wonder if allowing a poster’s URL in the Website field (while posting) will either a) improve their Google rank or b) lower their Google rank?
We’d have to seek out SEO expertise to know for sure. Does this all make sense to you guys? It boils down to this: Whether or not you should even allow posters to plug their website in the Website field. If you allow us to do so, word will eventually get around and the scammers/spammers may begin to hang around in our community here. However, if it turns out that by posting their URLs here turns out to be detrimental to their website’s rankings, then by all means allow them to post so that we can bring them down.
Unless you guys know or until we know otherwise, I would suggest removing the ability to allow posters to include their website URL in the Website field when they are posting. That’s my suggestion, and you can take it or leave it.
Sadly enough responses on this post are a clear example of why a lot of people fail at working from home. True, there are a lot of scams out there, but (2) posts above show why a lot of people fail. The first is BRENDA she claims she would like the opportunity to try real rebate processing, I post our Email, and she never contacts me. First reason people fail, they never actually try. Apparently BOBBY never bothered to read the posts above, because what he thinks we’re about is vastly different than what I posted above. This is the second reason people fail, they either try something without fully understanding what they are getting into, or get bits and pieces and form their own ideas. BOBBY…..READ THE DETAILS OF THE POSTS I MADE ABOVE, DOES THAT SOUND LIKE WHAT YOU SAY MY OFFER IS ABOUT IN YOUR POST? We have classifieds on several sites, so I have no idea what Bobby is talking about, but then again, what does that have to do with what we offer. If you really want to investigate an opportunity, don’t you think you should go to the source and get as much information as you can. The point of posting on the site was to let you know that there are real rebate processing opportunities out there and to give you an opportunity to try a real one out. We offer to pay you for trying our system out which I wish someone would have offered to me when I started in this business. I’ll say that one more time for Mr. Humboldt, WE PAY YOU. And we’ve got another individual named MORTIMAS who suggests to us to post names of satisfied customers. Not one of these people has contacted us for more information, so for all MORTI knows, a list of happy customers could be in our presentation. Look, we would like to help everyone out there whose looking for a real work at home opportunity, which is why we created our program, but we can’t force you to get off your lasy azz and do some work. Research is key before trying anything new out, and you will find zero complaints about us, which says a lot more about what we offer and who we are, than people we may or may not be paying who tell you we’re the greatest thing since sliced bread. After all some of you bought Angela Penbrooks system, and that was exactly what you bought into (flashy buy now signs, this guy made millions, that girl was so happy after she bought my system, etc.) If you are a serious individual, and you’re interested in real rebate processing, we are more than willing to help you, and we’ll answer any questions you have before you buy. Previous posts on this thread explain a great deal about how our program works.
Jeru
Sorry Jeru, I read what you do and don’t exactly agree with it. It’s not a work at home job by any means. I’m removing all email links you posted and request that you refrain from posting it again.
jeru, for someone that complains that no one follows through and tell me that a list of satisfied customers may be in your presentation, you spend a lot of time typing and explaining.
Is a list of satisfied customers in your presentation? And this group here is a skeptical bunch, we are not a bunch of discussion board trolls trying to earn 8 cents a day doing some ptc, ptp or otherwise tedious program. People here want real legitimate ops. If your program passed muster here, then trust me you would definately see an increase in traffic to your information. Harold said it, why dont you just fill in the website line in your comments block and we will go directly to your site…. that would be easy.
STEVE, what don’t you exactly agree with?
Look, I as well as many others make a good living Processing Rebates. I have never told anyone that this is a work from home job for hourly pay. Its rebate processing. You process rebates and get paid for them, and more (all listed in previous posts).
Funny that Steve and others posting on here have quite a bit of negativity to say, but other people not posting who simply read the posts, have contacted us and some are already working with us. Well, I wish I could help you all, but Communist Sensor Steve has removed all of our contact information because he don’t agree, with what I’m not sure, but he don’t agree. Nothing like a runaway computer Stalin.
Well anyway, anyone who gets a chance to read this before Commy Steve edits it, should know that I sent Joe 2 rebate sites to complete for free, and if he had completed them I would have shown him how to get referals for free so he could have $3700.00 in his pocket in 2 weeks, minus the free trial expenses. Its a small part of the training, but I wanted him to see the income potential. He didn’t complete the rebates and chose to quit, and Steve hasn’t contacted us at all. I doubt these individuals will allow you to get a shot at real rebate processing, because like a lot of you they don’t follow through.
Jeru
Mortimus you are correct, but we don’t have a flashy website, as mentioned above in previous posts.
Steve, you communist.
Actually steve is quite the capitalist, and bottom line, this is his site, so his choice of what to permit is entirely Steves.
Flashy or not, the info is available, correct… join the forum and send me a pm as to the details jeru.
I doubt steve is even a democrat, so I know he is not a communist.
Jeru, you really shouldn’t get so upset about your links and email addresses being removed from this comment thread. I can’t speak for the boys, but if I have it right, I think I’ve Tried That is not only about debunking the scammers, but is also about discovering the authentic Work at Home offerings. Maybe I’ve got that wrong; Steve or Joe please correct me if so.
If so, then blatantly posting a URL and/or email address on a Comments thread like this would be a tactic of many scammers/spammers would use. Fortunately (or not), the guys behind this blog have allowed us to place our URL in the Website field I mentioned before. That way posters like us can not-so-blatantly “spam” the Comments board with a link to our website, so that others may check us out if they’d like. You can’t expect to be allowed to place your URL in any old blog’s Comments board; it’s enough to make your case without providing a direct link.
I’d like to know more about what you’ve got there, so I wouldn’t mind you contacting me. Simply click my name to go to my blog and collect my email address there; it’s as simple as that. Make sure to send it from a legitimate email, though, else it’ll be automatically routed to my Spam folder by Gmail and then I’ll never know it was received.
I may or may not try your business — I don’t have a bank account or any savings to take a gamble with. But if there’s no up-front costs, I may be game, and I’ll be sure to let alot of people know the results of my experience, positive or negative (or both).
You’re absolutely right, Harold.
All right, Jeru, if you want to play it that way, here’s why I lost interest.
Jeru sent me affiliate links to two sites: highrollers.v-bux.com and cash.zeropricetags.com. Both are sites where you sign up for free offers in exchange for cash and prizes. For example, you might get a free iPod if you complete trial offers from, for example, Netflix and others. I’ve never been a big fan of those things, but for $2500 I was willing to give it a shot.
He also said he would give me the training free of charge that he sells to others. Another bonus!
I signed up at the first site and selected my free gift of $2500 to be delivered via PayPal. Here’s what I will have to do to get that $2500:
Now, if I had paid Jeru for the training rather than getting it for free, he would have paid me to complete my offers, because he would be the one in Tier 1, and I would be one of his referrals completing offers in Tier 2. So if he gets (in this example) 20 people to complete their offers, he’s got $2500 coming. You get people to complete their offers by paying them.
I have no problem with any of this so far. If Jeru and I can both profit from American consumerism, more power to us. I don’t even mind that in this example, I might make $100 while he makes $2500 because I could learn how to be the Tier 1 guy. I have no doubt Jeru makes good monoey doing what he does. It’s not for me, though, and here’s why.
How do I find the 20 people who want to get paid to complete trial offers? I plaster my affiliate ads all over the Net saying I will pay you to “process rebates,” and all you have to do is pay $95 for this training. (I pocket half of each sale, but I won’t tell you that.) How is signing up for a trial offer, even when I get paid to do so, a “rebate processing job?”
I would make my pitch to people who are desperate to supplement their income, and would call it “rebate processing” because “get paid to sign up for trial offers and send your name and contact info and maybe your credit card all over the Net” doesn’t sell as well. I would sell to people who are desperate enough to fork over $95 they can’t afford in the hopes that they’ll be able to make decent income working from home “processing rebates.” When they realize they’re not processing rebates at all, they’ll feel cheated. And that I do have a problem with.
You call it not following through. I call it integrity.
Oh, and Steve isn’t a Commy! He’s a Fascist. Big difference. Look it up.
Joe wins. Jeru is banned. Steve still knows everything.
Just another day at I’ve Tried That.
Thanks joe.
That is the basic x-box 360/ ipod giveaway crap, that has been around for a while, get 20 people to join up and do all the offers… very hard to do… even if you get the item, it is quite scammy… (There is no way you would have got the 2500)
Now get back to the subject!!!!
rebate processing?? what in the world is that all about?
It all reminded me too much of those “Make Money Stuffing Envelopes” scams I’d first encountered as a child. I remember the slight feeling of disappointment I’d had after first sending in my S.A.S.E. and a dollar only to receive some vague flyer in my return envelope. Even more, I remember “investing” another $10 or $20 I’d scrounged only to receive some lame book describing the process of placing ads in various newspapers with the same message I’d received and then asking them to invest more of their money for some lame book and who knows what else…
(continued on my blog, “something that happened”)
I began writing a post here and then realized it was worthy of posting to my blog. It’s more of an article than a comment, so if you want to read the rest of it then check out my blog, “something that happened”. It’s easy to find using your favorite search engine. I hope this isn’t considered spam on my part; please let me know if it is.
I have to protest about the satatement made from Jeru for it is in fact untrue. I did indeed try more then one time to get a responce from him threw e-mail. He can not say he sent me the information either because I have my e-mail set to all e-mail is excepted, purposely. IN other words, I do not have a spam blocker set. Thinking ahead, I did this for the very reason so he could not claim that he tried to send me any information.
On another note Steve is absolutly correct in saying that the sites that Jeru gave him to look at are not rebate processing.
There is no rebate to process. Those sites work very differently. I know because I myself have over 35 sites like that that I work. highroller.v-bux being one of them. This is a one credit site and if you change your prise you will see that you can cash out on one referral.
Another point is that no one should be haveing to pay Jeru $95 for this information because I like I said I do those sites and it is free to register. All I do is if someone is interested I give them what is called my referral link. After they complete the offers required to make the credit(s) requirement I send them a personal bonus from myself, threw paypal, which is free to set up an account. All Jeru is doing is makeing something good look bad by chargeing people $95 for his referral links, which is very wrong of him to do.
The reason for me putting credit(s) like this is because some sites require more then 1 credit to be complete.
I make good money doing the referral sites but I have not mislead anyone in how it is done either. What Jeru is saying is misleading, it is not rebate processing.
When a person that you have referred completes the offers and gets the amount of credit(s) required it is called going green. Now before the trial ends the person may cancel the services and no longer be bills, you do not want to cancel to early for then the credit will revert back.
The way that it really works is that you as the person referring (person 1, example : me)cashes out on the referral (person 2, example : steve) I get $125 to cash out on the highrollers.v-bux if I do not want to wait for another person to green, then I in return send steve a part of that cash out if that was agreed on. If I told Steve that I would pay him $40 to complete the site then I would indeed send him the money after I cashed out the $125. Now then Steve in return does the same thing, gets a friend to sign under his referral link and then he collects on his friend. He may choose to pay or not.
Yes you can get people to go and register with out agreeing to pay them anything. That is 100% your collection.
As far as the cash.zeropricetags site I do not do have that one, I have the doublecash.zeropricetags, now this is a site that requires two credits to complete the fisrt step “going green”, which is a site that you do not want to give to someone who is just starting out in doing the referrals. you want to start them only on one credit sites and build them up before you move on to two credit, or more sites. I have a site that I do that pays out $200 on one referral but I do not give that site as the first site to start anyne out on because it takes 5 credits.
futher more Jeru should never have given the highrollers site as a begining site either, even that it is a 1 credit site it takes many offers to complete to go green. The smaller paying sites are faster for a beginer and easier as well.
On that all being said now, yes I do make money from the sites that I work and you all are probally asking yourself then why am I looking for yet another way of makeing money from home, it is simple, my grandmother use to all ways say never put all your eggs in one basket.
A person is not guarenteed that they will make $3500 in a month from doing this, yes it is possible to do but it is not guarenteed steady. Some months you may only come out with $200. You may even decide that you may not want the money but to collect something else instead, such as an i-pod, a laptop, a tom tom for you car, a computer game for your child, the list goes on and on.
I pay people who complete the offers under my referral links for me, depending on the site from $20 - $100, it is worth it to me to pay those who do complete because I to have made money.
Jeru, in no way shape or form is this rebate processing.
Thanks for the info, Brenda. I have a question for you, but I’m moving the conversation to the forum to keep this thread on topic. Please head over there and post a reply if you like.
Joe, I have registered to the forum as per your request and as soon as i get the post reply privilage I surly will answer any and all questions that you may have. I am thinking that I have to wait until I get an e-mail notice correct? Because I tryed to post a reply and it has that feature inactive atr this time.
I did not say any thing about sites before because that is not what this subject is about, this subject is about rebate processing (at home work)
Jeru is the one who tryed to say that this was a part of rebate processing and I had to speak up for the sites that I work with because it is not a scam. He aparently is a very greedy person and is selling his referral links (information) for $95.
I’m glad I found your review of rebate processing. Angela Penbrook almost stole $197 from me. I really want to be a stay at home dad. Are there legitimate ways to work at home using your PC? How do I find them?
WOW!! Definitely glad I found this! Very informative and a saving of, $197, then $39, then $29… that’s the priceline I saw for three different rebate process job offers. Oh yeah, and every one of them had the countdown clock. Thank you for your help and thank you for the postings. I have been pretty stupid, I guess. I( have ‘Flushed’ money a couple of times. My latest was for $29.95 for a “Financial Success System” (FSS)disc. It’s “Beautiful” You pay $9 for what is basically a ‘Come-On’ power Hype disc that tells you zip about the product, but you “May” (Keyword) make “Thousands…..somehow the little disclaimer throughout should be the “Headsup” on how the huge sums “…are not typical…not a guarantee of your income…” It sets up an appointment with someone and then another $29.95 is taken from you to get you started; basically, calling others to set up appointments to sell something.
Is there ANYTHING that a person can do to make money from home working ‘Online’? Please tell me cuz’ I’se been lookin for a LONG TIME! Thanks for your Post and Time.
Hey steve Boroski, I tried to go to your website!!! That was funny ;} That would be a good start. get one, free or otherwise.
research is the key, you found this site and it saved you money, maybe you find a site that makes you money. My advice is to stick to places like this that have open discussion about online business, sometimes your best leads are found at places that “bust” scams. I bought joe and Steves ebook and it might help someone like you.. If not then just keep digging.
Or you could just sell all your stuff on ebay!!!
Mike and Steve B: I’m glad to hear we saved you some hard-earned cash. The ratio of real work to “opportunities” or “programs” or outright scams online is really discouraging. Yes, there are legitimate ways to make money with your PC from home. However, if you’re looking for a full-time income, Mike, so you can be a stay-at-home dad, it would take you some time to build up to that.
My first advice to people that have fallen for gimmicks like “data entry” or “rebate processing” is to change your expectations. Chances of you finding an “online job” that makes a lot of money are very slim. Instead, work on finding a “job online.” There’s a big difference. In most legitimate “jobs” we have seen, you don’t do the work online. You find the job online, and then do the work on your own computer at home, even if you’re not online while you do it. You don’t use the Internet to do work, you use it to find real jobs that you can do from home.
Of course, there are ways to do work online and make money (this blog you’re reading is one such example), but based on your questions, it looks like you’re not asking for that kind of work.
The most complete advice we have about finding jobs online is in our book. But basically, you need to treat your search like a normal (offline) job search. Have a good resume and cover letter, sharpen your computer skills, look for the right keywords in job advertisement websites, and learn how to quickly weed out the advertisements that aren’t real jobs at all.
If you (or anyone else reading this) want to tell us more about your work experience and skills, we might be able to point you in a more specific direction.
Do you know anything about processing government rebates? Is that a legitimate job or another scam?
Stupid me looked at all the reviews of the scam AFTER I hit “continue” to place the order with my credit card. When the order process errored out, I finally thought to google the program and fast changed my mind about ordering. The money got taken from my credit card anyway, but they were good about honoring thier guarantee. I just called the 800# that appeared on the credit card charge, asked for the $197 refund, they did not ask why, and less than a week later I have my money back. Lesson learned…again…this time.
I’ve gotten tons and I mean tons of these “rebate processing” emails. It’s really crazy how many go out each day! I did go to one of the websites in the beginning but when they wanted to charge me even “$39″ I click off of the website and went my separate way. Thank goodness of this site “I’ve tried that” that told me any legit job online will not cost you a penney!
Thanks again for the information!
I recieved one of these scam emails as well for rebate processing. My first thought was why would a company pay someone $15 for 5 min. of work when they could pay an employee an hourly min. wage which is less then $15 an hour. ??????
Yeah i recived this stupid email from a James, funny how the email came from foreststrawberry.com. I looked up that website and NOTHING came up it was not a valid website. So be careful!
Really like your info site here! I just ‘lost’ $29.95 to a ‘rebate program’ under the name of Tracey Watson. Better that than $197 to Angel, Cindy, Angela or Stephanie! Again, thanks for your thread!
You just saved me $39.00. I am a stay at home mom without a single penny, except a credit card. I have four children and I really need to earn income. I was in tears when I was looking for a place to work. But I felt I needed to find out if I would be scammed.
Thank you.
You’re welcome, Pat. I’m glad to hear you didn’t flush your bank’s money. I’ve been there and know what desperation feels like. I’m sending you a free copy of our ebook so you can learn how to spot the scams and how to find real jobs online.
HAs anyone heard of Steve Albright with the site reviewopedia
Great info! So glad I stumbled across this site. I do have one question before I buy your book…is your company a member of the BBB? Not trying to offend but I’ve been scammed before and even by people saying they are here to “out” the scammers. All the info I’ve read so far seems legit…just asking. Thanks
Hi DC, that’s a reasonable question. No, we’re not members of the BBB. It’s never occurred to us that we should be. Tell you what, if you buy our book and then feel like you’ve been scammed, contact me directly and I’ll send a scam complaint myself to the BBB. You can reach me at joe[at]ivetriedthat[dot]com.
To Bobby: Steve Albright operates under at least 3 different names. His basic review is ok, but then he ‘recommends’–read ’shill’ here, another program which doesn’t work the way he claims, so be careful. He’s more subtle than other promoters, but still the same animal.
To Trackback: Angela Penbrook’s program is exactly the same as Cindy Dalton, Angela Stevens and Stephanie Edwards. You have to pay $197 for the program, then spend additional money promoting it before you see any profit, and profit is by no means guaranteed.
DC: Don’t rely on the BBB to review, regulate or oversee any Net businesses. They don’t resolve complaints and they don’t have the manpower to accurately check and review sites. Sorry, but that’s just the way it is on the Net.
Also, DC: I bought Joe’s eBook and it’s excellent, period. It’s not a money opportunity deal; it’s a comprehensive guide to finding a traditional job which lets you work on your computer at home.
People: I apologize to all for the length of this statement. I’ve looked at hundreds of business opp websites and blogs and these guys are the most professional I’ve seen, so I’m just adding my two cents that I think they’re trustworthy. I’m a retired legal secretary, if that helps with credibility.
I’m still asking if anyone has any information on government rebate processing. Supposedly, the way it works is that you get a training manual from the government, followed by a list of people to call about their government rebates. Then, you get a percentage. Has anyone heard of this?
@ Patricia: Thanks for the recommendation!
@ Tee: We’re checking that out now. See my post about it here.
Thanks for the info, Patricia. I moved your comment over to the
Mortgage Insurance Refunds post, where it’s more directly related to the topic.
Yes i was wondering is there a web sit that you can actually process rebates at home and if their is could i have the address to this site
Thanks
Charles
sirlevicharles@yahoo.com
Anna intrested to hear that you received a refund of $197.00 was this from Processathome.com?. I signed up for Angel stvens program and have tried without any look for refund.
Anna I meant to say ” I tried without any luck in getting my money back”
I’m so glad I stumbled across your site! I’m in a financial jam and thought this rebate processing thing might help… thanks for saving me some money, and extreme aggrivation!!!
I stumbled upon your site totally by accident, and am I glad I did. I am disabled and need to supplement my SS check, and am considering online work as the solution. I had noticed in the rebate processing ads the wording was exactly the same, only the names were changed to fool the innocent! I believe I will do a lot more research before tryiong anything, and I have no intention of spending money to get a job. I will not pay someone to hire me! Thanks for the heads up.
@ Kevin: Good on ya, mate. If everyone would learn those lessons, we could all put these Internet scammers out of business. Keep this distinction in mind: we have seen MANY real jobs online. We have seen NO real online jobs. It’s a small but important difference.
Boy, am I ever confused and worried! I signed up for the “Process at home” program back during the first week of Jan. (Not in response to a spam email, but after Googling “Best work from home jobs”). I submitted my $197.00 payment and was contacted within 24 hours. I was sent the training sessions religously ever week for the entire seven week course that I was instructed from the very beginning that I would have to complete before being deemed “Rebate Processor”. I was told in a recent email from Angel Stevens that she is in the process of creating a data base for me to start processing the rebates that I have been trained to do. I just today stumble onto your site and am reading nothing but Scam…Scam…Scam! Is it really possible that absolutely nobody has had a positive experience with Angel Stevens?! If it isn’t her still responding to me emails, then who is?
Mike,
I’d be interested in seeing what “she” has sent you so far. If you want to send me any info, I’ll take a closer look. joe[at]ivetriedthat[dot]com.
My prediction: “she” is going to tell you that the database is all ready, but you have to buy product y for $29.95 to use it or something. They’re going to ask you for more money.
Well, I admit that I fell for Penbrook’s “make money fast skeme. I pluncked down my $197. by credit card and even went out and bought a new flashdrive to keep track of my rebate business accounts. Right. I took one look at that 57 page manual on how to shake money from trees essentially and realized my huge error. I called the 1-800 number at least 800 times. Each time I was put on hold for an eternity then hung up on. I called my credit card co. who advised they could do nothing just yet because the charge had not officially posted. But they did place a fraud alert on my account so that nohting further could be added to my charge w/out my permission. Some relief, but I wanted all my money back. So I doggedly pursued that 800 number, finally reached Penbrook ‘accounting’ around 4 a.m., explained that this was not what I expected and I wanted an immediate refund. A very Polynesian accented person took basic info, promised a full credit to my card within 5-7 days. Miraculously the credit appeared within the time frame. I have learned my lesson. Barnum Bailey said it best: if it sounds too good to be true it likely is.
My advice if you get caught up in the moment?? Call you credit card co. immediately and request a fruad alert be placed on your account. At least if the skammer is unscrupulous, they cannot place more charges on your card. If you find a 1-800 number on the website, call it. Relentlessly. Pain in the posterior,but if you want a refund through the merchant, which is preferable since then your credit card co. won’t do anything right away, cue up speed dial.
And good luck.
thank you so much, i cannt ever express my gratitude, i am a single mom and i work 50 hours a week at a notmal 9-5 job. however there never seems to be ebough money for the little things like buying my 4 year old the care bear that she so despretly wants, or for that matter the new pair of shoes that i so despretly need… i was going to spend my 197.00 on angelas training but i on a whim googled it first (i actually have my credit card ready and the web site still up!)and now i am so glad that i went with my gut before i charged this because there is no way i would be able to pay this off next month (i actually bought into the “earn your money back in 15 mintues” cr@p)thank you thank you thank you!!! i am def dissapointed that i am not going to be able to supplment my income. but very greatful that i did not just flush 200.00, that might have been the straw that broke this very tired camals back- thank you again. i cannt tell you how much heartache (if not tears) you have saved me,
Roxanne
Roxanne, you just made my day. Nay, my week! I’m so glad to hear you didn’t flush your money. How good are your computer skills? If they’re reasonably good, our ebook will show you how to make a couple hundred bucks a month. It’s hard work, mind you, but I get the feeling you’re used to that.
Hello Everyone! God, after reading all of these comments on scams and lost money I now have one huge headache and blurred vision! I have been sent so many pop ups on maaking money online by filling out surveys from so many different companies and I flat got tired of filling them out! They go on and on and on (like the little rabbit with the batteries commercial).And they all end up asking for my bank card or credit card. You know some people may have the money to spend for these things but I am only receiving close to $1100. a month and $700. goes to rent, 205. for my little sisters car payment, and a 109 for her insurance until she can get on her feet. So that leaves me with very little left for right now. When I went online to look for ways to increase my income it wasn’t to decrease it by spending what little I had left! I have so far gotten very rich by my African relatives who died in plane crashes, car wrecks etc. that I never even knew in the first place etc.! I have also been sent money orders that I was told to take to my bank and cash and keep so much and send the rest back. (I gave them to our local police department and some to the Post Office). I’ve seen so many scams that I don’t want to trust any ways of making money online. I also have a hobby of doing genealogy and I know for a fact that I have NO relatives in Africa. (At least not so far)I really need to make extra money right now but I guess that’s not in my near future. I’m not afraid of hard work as I came from a family of 10 children and have seen cotton fields since I was old enough to walk. But I’m 56 years old today and not as physically fit as I used to be and now I’m between stages as my mother says: Not old enough for Social Security and to old for most jobs that are hiring. But If I had money to waste or flush down the toliet as you say than I wouldn’t be looking for a way to earn more in the first place! Even $20. out of my pocket right now is more than I can afford. So if any of you people know of a way to earn without spending than PLEASE let me know. I’ll place this site into my favorites and check back ever so often for a reply. Thank you very much!!! (Oh, by the way, I was also emailed by Angela and Steven Albright) I didn’t go through with the forms after it ask for my credit card. Plus I typed their names up on my search bar and wa-lla, here I am! ………Vivian
I am glad I read your website first before paying for this processing scam. There arer so many things out there to make money but of course most of them are scams. I will stick with options & forex trading.
What a great source of info here. You literally saved me $197. I came so close to buying into the Angela P. scam. This is the first time I have viewed your site, and certainly appreciate what i found.
Thank you

joe - my pc skills are fairly competant. i work in 3rd party collections right now, so i am on a pc all day long, and i can navigate mine fairly well, for my knowlegde, when you say “hard work” are you meaning more then about an hour or two a day? becasue that is all i really have after the kids go to bed before i cant keep my eays open any more… but i would have no problem spending that 2 hours a day on the pc if it will help me make 200.00 extra a month!!! taht would pay my car payment and a huge reliefe!!!! let me know please, Thank you again, Roxanne
I was actually researching the website to see if it was a scam or not…you are doing a lot of people a favor..Keep up the good work!

i was looking into your e book and i am a littel confused, there are 4 differnet options available, one for 24.95, 14.95, 9.95, and 5.95 - - - what is the differance between the 4 books???
thanks roxanne
Roxanne, here are your answers, in reverse order:
The only difference is the price. You pay whatever you want to pay, but the book is the same. (This won’t always be the case.)
And the amount of time you spend working per day is usually up to you. If your employer wants a project finished in 3 days, it probably won’t work for you. But often they are flexible.
If you have solid computer skills, you should have no trouble finding jobs online. That’s very different from finding “online jobs.” We’ve seen hundreds of legitimate jobs for writers, html designers, graphics artists, personal and executive assistants, and so on. If you want to see examples of some of the jobs, check out the daily job listings at the Daily Telecommuter. Steve, my partner in crime, prescreens telecommuting jobs daily and lists only the legitimate ones, which is usually about 20 per day.
hey joe - about that e book - you mentioned that the price was not always going to be negotiable. i was wondering if that was going to change eny time soon? soo i wont hav the funds available until teh end of the month - and i deff want one - - Thanks yet again, Roxanne
No, not soon, Roxanne.
Vivian Virgen: I saw your post re VemmaBuilder. I’m an MLM member of both Vemma (a nutritional product) and VemmaBuilder (a lead generating service). The companies are legit BUT unless you want to work very, very hard for a very long period of time in the traditional MLM way, it’s tough to make any real money. Many successful people in MLM are using the Net to work their MLM programs (including Vemma). I’m in the process of checking out some Net venues that might work to recruit people into my MLM. I’m not looking to recruit anyone here; just to let you know that the Vemma company has a good reputation.
thank you joe - - i look forward to reading all your advice. thanks again, Roxanne
i came across this site processrebatesforcash.com and this person whose name isnt mentioned, seems to bad mouth Angela Penbrook, Angel Stevens, Brenda Meyers etc, saying he is so sick and tired of people scamming people. Yet he is offering the something similar for 29.97. he claims this is the REAL DEAL and actually works, he even goes onto say “I am a fair person. I will be glad to offer you a full 100% refund.” What really made me believe that this is a scam too is that there are alot of misspelled words on this site which bothers me but even more so this person states that when you register you will have instant access to the following;
1) Angela Penbrook’s $197 system.
2) Rebates to process for unlimited companies
3) Coupon offers to process
4) Shopping rebates
5) Direct access to people willing to pay YOU $30 and up to complete rebate offers for them.
6) Learn how to have Paypal pay you up to $1000 just for processing rebates for them
7) Several other Get paid to offers free as a bonus listed further down.
Has anyone seen this site and feels like it just can be real?
joe - - you just made my day!!! thank you sooooo much
Roxane
@ Angela, your instincts are right on. Careless writing is often a tip off that something isn’t right. I think it’s cool that someone is offering Penbrook’s system for much less, but only because it’s one scammer undercutting the other one. If he’s selling Penbrook as part of his “real deal,” it stands to reason that the other programs are crap, too.
@ Roxanne…
Roxanne, my e-mail to you just bounced back undeliverable. Did you get anything from me?
joe - not sure what happened… i have been getting the emails that new comments are posted…. sorry
Hello,
I tried to read most of these, but a bit lengthy. Have you heard about processrebatesforcash.com? They claim to be the real thing & also put down Angela Penbrook. Are they the same thing? They charge $29.97 They claim you do not place ads & you will never spend another dime. I too am one of those who are desperate to find a work at home job…..
Thank you, Sarah
@Angela and Sarah: I ordered the processrebatesforcash.com program and have read it over. I have not tried to use it yet (busy with other things at the moment). However, the material is reasonably well written and easy to understand. It looks legit and the steps appear to be easy to follow. I wouldn’t say that it’s a ripoff. But since I haven’t actually tried to work it yet, I can’t say that it works, either. For me, it was worth spending $29.95 just for the info, because in addition to the specific steps to follow, I think the author gives a pretty good overview of how the industry works, which would be important for anyone wanting to give it a try. If you’re going to spend money checking out the rebate industry, $29.95 is
