I was on craigslist searching my local area work at home job listings and came across one that said something like" Telemarketing sales"
250 dollars a sale, 6 prospects, 1 sale a day, 200 calls a day, 20 days a month = 5000 dollars a month.
So, I sent him an email that said "I would like to know more , what is this, what am I selling? what are the hours? Ect.."
Then he emailed me back and said something like"send me your resume and I will get back with you" and he didnt even answer my questions!!
So now Im confused!
Does that sound scammish?
I wouldnt know bc this is the first work at home job reply I have ever gotten back.
What should I do?

I have gotton several replies back from work at home sites. This sounds a little fishy to me I have stopped e-mailing my resume to everyone. I would send another e-mail asking only for more information, if they are unwilling to send you information then its probably not the real deal....good luck

Oh yes, it does sound fishy, Im new to craigslist too, so, I have noticed that there is ALOT of "crap" on there. But I will email him one more time then give it up, probably too good to be true. Figuressmileys/smiley7.gif
