While there are many legitimate work at home Internet business possibilities and
many reputable and honest work at home Internet business vendors, there are also
some fraudulent schemes. You must choose carefully. The most prominent of these
fraudulent schemes is for medical billing. Touted as one of the best work at home
Internet business ideas, these schemers are just out for your money. The idea is to
charge an upfront fee to get you started, and then leave you to fend for yourself
in an industry where you have little chance of succeeding. Other fraudulent
business opportunity schemes such as envelope stuffing and product assembly take
your money and then reject your work - and thus its payment - as substandard.

Advertisements touting these prepackaged medical billing centers show up on TV, on
the Web and in newspapers. Major metro newspapers, probably the most savvy about
these schemes, generally do not accept the ads. Responding to the ad for the
medical billing work at home Internet business opportunity will result in your
receiving a phone call, with a pitch about the burgeoning health care system
crisis. Typically the hawker will tell you that claims are piling up and waiting to
be processed. The result, according to the person on the phone, is to process these
claims electronically, which is not being done often or expansively. This, the
pitch goes, is what makes it a lucrative work at home Internet business for you.

The promise is that you'll make a lot of money as doctors outsource their billing
to you. You can, they say, work in accounts receivable, insurance claims and
physician or dentist practice management. Including in the presentation is the
assurance that not only do you not need experience but that their sales staff will
kick start your work at home Internet business by putting you together with health
care clients. The reality is that if you have any chance at all to make any money
or even get your initial investment back you're going to have to find your own
clients.

The investment for this alleged lucrative work at home Internet business is not
small - typically $2500-$9000. Prior to your commitment you will be mailed a
business brochure, the application and license agreement (contract), document of
disclosure, diskette samples, references and testimonials and videocassettes. Your
investment is supposed to result in training, software and technical support. The
references are commonly shills - the name for people that a company hires to
provide favorable but dishonest testimonials.

The reality is that medical billing is seldom a lucrative work at home Internet
business. Few people who purchase these programs are able to find enough clients to
even recoup their investment much less make a living at it. It's not that medical
billing isn't a legitimate business. It's that the competition is fierce and the
market is saturated.
