Rating: 
Level of Review:
Tested
Overview:
The ads say they will send you materials, you will
assemble them, and get paid for your
work.
Product: The
product is the items you make. You get paid for
making them, the company then sells
them.
Costs:
Usually $19 to $49. Sometimes other costs as well,
such as materials, mailing, etc.
Compensation:
Compensation is promised per article or per batch
of items.
Conclusion:
What actually happens is that all goes well up to
the point of payment. You receive your items (or
instructions), make your items, and ship them back.
You are then informed that you did not make the
items according to the required standard. They do
NOT return the items. This is pretty clearly a
scam, as the individual who tested this is an
expert seamstress, and quite meticulous in her
work. She tried this more than once, and found the
results to be the same both times.
This scam operates
sometimes as a book listing home assembly
companies. The books are also not worth the money,
as often they just have listings of companies,
which do not even HAVE home assembly programs. And
those that do actually have them, are scams
themselves, so you get scammed twice instead of
just once.
Steer clear of
this, it is always a scam, no matter how it is
presented.

Our Rating System:
No program is right for everyone.
Even a rating of four or five does not indicate that you should
dive in without some careful thought and consideration. Business
is still risky. All reviews have the reasons for the rating
clearly defined.
    -
Information presented in program is accurate and factual concerning
the potential of the program, program is based on sound business
principles, and has good potential to provide stable income
for individuals to whom the program is suitable.
   -
Information is accurately presented, company focuses on selling
product, but business is either more confusing, less predictable,
or slightly higher risk for one of a number of reasons. Still
considered a sound company and very acceptable risk.
  -
Information may be confusing or misleading, company may have
significant issues with program structure, support of product,
or public perception and reputation. A rating of three does
not mean you should not do it. It just means you need to be
sure you are suited to overcoming the difficulties that the
program has.
 -
Information generally misleading, risk fairly high, many unanswered
questions, business principles questionable, but still has some
potential for actually working for some people.
-
Cannot declare that it is an outright scam, but potential for
it to work is very low. Will have questionable business theory,
bad reputation, excessive hype that is not backed up by common
sense, or other aspects which indicate very high risk. Will
always have multiple issues, not just one thing.
-
Outright Scam. Anything labeled this way is never worth any
kind of risk.
