Sometime, it's hard to know what's legit or not. What always gets me is an ad with a ton of typos in it! Definitely weird! -Holly

As tempting as some of those might sound, I never did feel comfortable that they could actually be legit. I'm so glad I found the VA business. This is much better and REAL. __________________ Tanja

The real tricky ones I have learned about are the virtual assistant jobs that sound amazing and then require you to let the "employer" have access to your verified paypal acccount. It's a scam and they make it sound like you are a virtual payment processor when really they now have a direct link to your credit card or bank account. Sneaky huh? __________________ Perfect Balance Virtual Services

Of course I never heard from them again and they have closed down their craigslist account. I think they were doing a copy of everyone's work instead of having to create their own.
