I made a mistake in my last post. I said that advertisements from Real Translating jobs say that avergae translators earn 50,000 at week, it really says "50,000 a year". Anyway, that is a plain lie.

I can't say that this is a scam or not but I enrolled to this business just to try since it's been stated in their policy that there is a "60 days money back, gauranteed". When I got in the site, I found it difficult, so I backed out. I communicated with them many, many times properly but they never responded. I even tried pretending that I was a potential client using a diffirent email add just to see if they're really busy to mind my request (using my original email add). They actually responded quickly there! So I concluded that this business has NO TIME for those who changed their mind and those who would like their money back. Therefore, if you are planning to join, you better be decided and not expect a money back in case you might change your mind in the future.

to rochelle:
regarding your enrollment, after you enrolled were you informed or
ever given a tranlating job as mentioned in their internet ads?
did you ever received your money back guaranty? if the answers to
the said questions are in the negative then this is surely another
style of scam.
will appreciate a reply to the queries for enlightenment of the
the general public interested to ancillary income and not be duped.
Thank you.

I did the same, but at the same day I purchased from it, on November 25, 2014, I requested for a refund for the Real Translator Jobs and for the Clickbank.

Real Translator Jobs didn´t answered me, BUT:
The next day (Nov 26´14), I received a e-mail from the Clickbank informing: "Your refund request ticket has been closed, and your order has been refunded."

I felt a relief by the e-mail from Clickbank confirming my cancellation of purchase from Real Translator Jobs!

Everybody who feels unconfortable by the purchase, try to do the same: contact the agent of banking transaction.

I'm already a member of their site. All the site is a scam. They give you a list of translation agencies in order to send them your CV's. Most of them never reply and the other ones, reply with the classical answer "We will inform you when and if you're needed" and of course, they never do! As for the site support, I've messaged them plenty of times and noone answered and surely I won't get my money back. So be carefull and don't give your money for nothing. It's a fraud.

I paid a membership on realtranslatorjobs.com last week. I realized that whatever they advertised was all lies as after i entered member area it's nothing there. Just a database and a bunch of advertisements concerning MONEY, MONEY, MONEY ! there's no job there and that site is not helping us at all.

Question for all who had been member for realtranslatorjobs.com :
Could anyone tell me if they are charging the membership after 60 days automatically or not ? as this fraud people got my credit card number. Really appreciate if anyone could help me with this.

Hi all,

I have drafted a step by step process to get your money back from this scam! These details are also up on my blog. They are as follows:

1. Go to https://www.clkbank.com/
2. Enter in your order number or email (I find it easier to just enter my email).
3. You will then be prompted to enter either your zip code, order number or the last 4 digits of your CC. Enter one and click ‘Go!’
4. You will be redirected to a page with your order (or multiple) listed. Click on the product, in this case it is ‘Special Discount Member Access’
5. You will then be taken to an order details page (**Note if this is the only product you have purchased you will be directed straight to this page)
6. Under Product Information, click on the green ‘Get Support’ Button.
7. Select ‘More Options’ from the dropdown menu.
8. Check the ‘refund request’ box
9. Select a reason for your refund and add any comments in the comments box if you wish.
10. Click Send!

what I don't understand is why they charge. If it's a "job," one should be getting paid for it, not paying for doing work... I was going to sign up, but didn't get to the part where they charge. As soon as they would've asked for card/payment info, I would have closed the window. Don't offer me a job and ask me to pay for it... NEXT.

I could't agree more with Laura! I do exactly the same when it comes to joining these job sites. If they ask you to pay, I close the window (they are all scams to get money from honest people who are looking for work)

Any writing job on the Internet that asks for money up front is a scam. Good sites offer an application process for free. If you're accepted, you get access to their database. You select projects and have a limited amount of time to complete them. When completed, they check them for accuracy. They may return them for changes, and again, you have a deadline for completion. When they accept your work, they deposit money in your PayPal account in a matter of days. Don't pay ANY company up front for access to their database. The legit ones all need workers and are quite willing to pay. I'm not giving any sites because I'm a louse and don't want the competition. But I will guarantee that what I say is true. DON'T GIVE UP, KEEP LOOKING.

I subscribed to RealTranslatorJobs via ClickBank. At your member page you won't find anything more than a list of sites that suppossedly need freelance translators, there is an "earnings calculator" that is nothing more than a toy for start dreaming about how much money you want to earn, just tells you how many "translating jobs" you should do to earn any quantity you type. Only crap. There is a word counter suppposedly to be a very useful tool for your translation work, and another tool for translating fragments of text from some languages to others, nothing different to on-line tools you can find for free like babel-fish. Other thing you find there is a link saying "Click Here For Your FREE Money Making Website ($1995 Value Free!)" supossedly for you to have a complete web page, professionally crafted for you, even with a reverse counter that rushes you to claim your gift before the 15 only left ones are gone, and what you encounter is a page that claims a payment for subscribing your domain, the hosting, the domain privacy, etc. The only thing for free is the "design" of your page. You have to accept all these payments and give a credit card number to continue. But, after ignoring this scam you look everywhere to find the translating jobs the promised, and the only translating related page is the list of companies where you must subscribe for yourself to each one. Then I started immediately to subscribe to all the links that I found there. Did you read about "no translation experience required" ? What they don´t tell you is that most of those companies ask for a documented certification on translating and at least three years of experience. So, you can't subscribe to most of them unless you lie about your experience translating. I started to subscribe to that places more than three weeks ago. At this moment I am subscribed to more than FITFY different places, and guess what? I haven't received no one, not even ONE translating job from any of them. I am still wondering how the hell they can tell in their adversiting that "an average freelance translator earns 50,000 dollars at week" and "the need of translators is exploding" and crap like that. The only one thing I could say about ClickBank is that one week ago I sent a reclaim letter to its help desk and they refunded me the total 35 dollars I payed, after 5 days I received the money at my credit card account through paypal, so, the only thing I left was my time. But, completely for sure, realTranslatorJobs doesn't work, you won't do a cent from them. You could do the same thing I describe here looking for "hiring freelance translators" in google and subscribing to each company that appears on the results. If you have any doubt try it for yourself. That's the offering into Real Translator Jobs, and you pay 35 dollars for it. By the way, to make the site appearing as if they had a useful content there are some "video courses" about making money on Twitter, Amazon and on selling pages like EBay, none of them I tried because i think is a way of distracting you while you try to make money by other means while you wait for the "translation jobs" to come, following other crap instructions and meanwhile the time to ask for refund ends.

I live in Belgium and I see a Belgian and Usa flag on their forepage.
with the notice that there is a great demand for dutch to English translators. obviously they can locate every computer to identify the country. I am afraid that your email adres gets sold to other scammers.

They market their scam through Clickbank. So if you have bought into it, you should have received an email receipt from Clickbank. Check this receipt and ask for a refund directly from Clickbank not from the scammers because they'll ignore you. You should however do it within 60 days. I hope this message will help those who have fallen for this scam get their money back.

My instinct and mindset went to a conclusion that I would be needing to search if its true or for real. I googled words "Is realtranslator.com real?". To my surprise, I was directed to this site where I found bunch of words/comments such as "IT'S A SCAM"(just to emphasize). Well, after all your sharings and experiences, I, therefore conclude that we really need to search and study opportunities, first before we believe or grab them. It's a learning, though. You lost your money,guys but I want you to know that there are people out there (like me) who really want to thank you for giving us the truth and advising us to be careful every time. God bless, everyone. "Before you believe, think first."

Thank you Rodoxito!
I read your message and I'm changing my mind about this realtranslatorjobs.It looks nice "no experience required","money back guarranted" or others but "this is too easy and good" I said to me.Lets find more about them.And I found.Thanks.>I subscribed to RealTranslatorJobs via ClickBank. At your member page you won't find anything more than a list of sites that suppossedly need freelance translators, there is an "earnings calculator" that is nothing more than a toy for start dreaming about how much money you want to earn, just tells you how many "translating jobs" you should do to earn any quantity you type. Only crap. There is a word counter suppposedly to be a very useful tool for your translation work, and another tool for translating fragments of text from some languages to others, nothing different to on-line tools you can find for free like babel-fish. Other thing you find there is a link saying "Click Here For Your FREE Money Making Website ($1995 Value Free!)" supossedly for you to have a complete web page, professionally crafted for you, even with a reverse counter that rushes you to claim your gift before the 15 only left ones are gone, and what you encounter is a page that claims a payment for subscribing your domain, the hosting, the domain privacy, etc. The only thing for free is the "design" of your page. You have to accept all these payments and give a credit card number to continue. But, after ignoring this scam you look everywhere to find the translating jobs the promised, and the only translating related page is the list of companies where you must subscribe for yourself to each one. Then I started immediately to subscribe to all the links that I found there. Did you read about "no translation experience required" ? What they don´t tell you is that most of those companies ask for a documented certification on translating and at least three years of experience. So, you can't subscribe to most of them unless you lie about your experience translating. I started to subscribe to that places more than three weeks ago. At this moment I am subscribed to more than FITFY different places, and guess what? I haven't received no one, not even ONE translating job from any of them. I am still wondering how the hell they can tell in their adversiting that "an average freelance translator earns 50,000 dollars at week" and "the need of translators is exploding" and crap like that. The only one thing I could say about ClickBank is that one week ago I sent a reclaim letter to its help desk and they refunded me the total 35 dollars I payed, after 5 days I received the money at my credit card account through paypal, so, the only thing I left was my time. But, completely for sure, realTranslatorJobs doesn't work, you won't do a cent from them. You could do the same thing I describe here looking for "hiring freelance translators" in google and subscribing to each company that appears on the results. If you have any doubt try it for yourself. That's the offering into Real Translator Jobs, and you pay 35 dollars for it. By the way, to make the site appearing as if they had a useful content there are some "video courses" about making money on Twitter, Amazon and on selling pages like EBay, none of them I tried because i think is a way of distracting you while you try to make money by other means while you wait for the "translation jobs" to come, following other crap instructions and meanwhile the time to ask for refund ends.>I subscribed to RealTranslatorJobs via ClickBank.

I accidentally clicked a link in EJOD, and after a bit of search about RealTranslatorJobs I found that it's a load of crap. They will never pay you anything, nor they will even give you real assingments. Sites like this always claim that they're free, but in fact they will ALWAYS find a way to get you to pay a small amount of money. Any kind of "translators needed" -site is always a scam, because there would be thousands of translators applying if it were real, and also because most people who sign up for them usually can't even speak the two languages well enough to be a translator. After reading all the comments I noticed that only one of them was written grammatically correct, and that "kinda" proves my point.

After you paid the fee of joining RealTranslatorJobs you should have got an email from Clickbank about the data of payment. Copy this message into the email you write them to get your money refunded. They (clickbank) will answer you within 2 workdays, and refund your money within 2-5 workdays. Hurry up, I hope you're still within the limit of 60 days! Good luck, Dóra

Very useful info. Now I can understand it... imagine if you managed to fool 1000 people each day. You would collect $35000 each day. If you can keep that for 5 days = $175,000 !!!

Thanks for the good information! That's free credit for 5 days with no interest!! Enough to buy a car or a house!! And within 5 days, refund the money once the scammee gets wise and claims back his cash... An interesting "legal" fund raising program that seems unstoppable.. It's a jungle out there!! Beware!

Thank you so much for this information and experience you've shared. I am new to this translating industry and stuffs online, I always wanted to subscribe on jobs like this but I always have a doubt especially when they ask me to pay. That's ridiculous right. And also realtranslatorjob always send me emails everyday, and it's really annoying. I asked myself that maybe these people is really in need for freelancers so I let it until I'm finally decided to join. And that was today, but before subscribing it I thought about scams and searched about this on google. Until I red this site and especially your thread, it enlightened me. Thank you so much.

What I suggest to all is to get in touch with Google and ask that as translatorjobs is so obviously misleading (i.e. scam) why these people are allowed at all to advertise on google! That should get them off quickly. I get the advert on youtube too. It sucks.

I'm so glad that I found this blog before I subscribed and wasted my money on this shit. Here is why it's a scam. If it wasn't a scam, the company "Real Translator Jobs" would disclose everything that was involved BEFORE asking for your money. Instead of making it look like easy money, they would tell you ahead of time, that you are only being given a list of companies to network with, and that you may or may not be successful in landing a job with any or all of these companies. Since you only find out exactly what is being offered to you AFTER making a credit card payment, it's totally obvious to me that it's a scam. Buyer beware, there are a lot of assholes out there who want to steal your money and will stop at nothing to succeed. I was disappointed too, this would have been a great opportunity for me; if it were real.

Yeah i had to read your account and quote this section because your every experience has been mine, to the 'T' as we say in JA. The added strangeness of mine is because of the fact that this is not the first time i have seen the link for realtranslatorjobs and on all the other occasions i have ignored it especially as someone said when it came to payment options. But on this occasion two weeks ago i decided to do it
i guess bc of changing circumstances with family. I came on today in order to unjoin but i decided to give it one more shot by looking up a few of the websites they link to. However again i asked myself 'is it not just a scam?' and looked it up on google. I am going to cancel my membership right now.

This was all most useful information. Of course deep down we all know that anything that is too good to be true is usually bad. A company that advertises without telephone number or address is suspicious, to say the least.
If it is a scam though, would they be allowed to advertise on youtube? (that's where I came across them). I wonder...

Hi. I'm interested to join this site. However, I'm not sure how this will work. Is it really hard so you decided to quit? I'm concern on how difficult the job will be and do you have to pay for something before joining this site or will they charge you for some things after registering to this job? I am even not sure of the qualifications they are looking for here. I saw this is until August 14 of 2011. Can I get an easy document to translate for 25 dollars? Because I only put 25 dollars in what amount you can earn per document. Should the difficulty of translating a document depends on the salary you can earn?Thank you so much and appreciate your reply to this matter.

Me too I got mails from this site but I don't trust them since my experience with another company of this kind offering me a job as a receptionist in an important hotel located in LONDON. Guess what ,they found my CV on a Jobs Searching site and they considered I'm most suited for this.Of course the salary was above the normal. The papers I got from them was with the hotel stamp and header etc,so I was tented to trust them .Of course they wanted money from me to obtain my work permit . I searched the internet and I found the site of the hotel.I got from contact file the mails of the managers and I sent them a message asking them to confirm or deny what I just told you above.They responded me very fast telling me that the documents were a fake and advising me to announce the police.So please be careful and check all these amazing offers before sending money .

Hi
I was glad to find this forum as I did a search (given my doubts whether to join realtranslatorjobs)on google. Now I think my fears were right. Thank god I did not subscribe to them. It did look funny that after closing their page/window, new ad windows from them opened up on my screen giving discounts on the initial fee they asked for. In fact they gave me three different prices, each time lowering the previous one!!! Seemed totally unprofessionally to me, and thereby my doubts. The strangest thing is that before reaching this forum, the google search engine showed me several links to different sites that reviewed realtranslatorjobs.com and do you know that several of them supported what this company (or wolf inside sheepskin)? So it´s not only a scam, but a very well organised criminal mind.
Good luck to all.

Hi, I did the same thing, unfortunately. I was searching for a part-time job. Not to serious, not being a qualified translator. But I am writing books in english and they are published on Amazon, so I thought I could try. I also lost 24$ and I feel such an idiot. Because you DO need to be qualified and they are NOT offering jobs directly, which I thought. They have just searched the web for translation-agencies and put their names up. I don't think I ever get my money back, but I really need a part-time translation job.

BEWARE               [Reply to this message]
Sender: AAA 14-12-2011 13:59

I was contacted myself by RealTranslationJobs.com and I was offered a coupon to jon for half the price: BEWARE
You should never pay to work! If that's the way you start, why should you ever get payed for the work you've done?
In addition in professional translations it is important to know what you are translating and what country you are in in order to give a quotation. Any professional will agree translating movie speech is different from translating Bureaucratic or scientific papers.
Usually translations are quoted in charachters per page: ex. 1500 characters or 1800 characters. According to the type of document it is (simple conversation to scientific paper) revenues in Italy can average between 10 euro to 15 maximum 20 euro a page for very specific language translating.
I don't know how it works in other countries but according to the cost of life I can imagine Translators in France will have to charge more whilst a Translator in India can charge less.
It is important to know who commissiones the job and have a clear contract BEFORE starting!

BEWARE of SCAMS: it is not nice to work and then not be payed for it, all the most if you've payed in advance!

The real truth about any work-on-line web page which asks money for a subscription is this: if you really are going to make so much money, and if it is so easy to earn, why asking for money before and not after your subscription? Any honest place that helps you to earn money could wait a little, until you have worked and earn some quantity, and before cashing it, they could take off some commission payment for their services. I’m sure anyone of us would be enchanted of paying a little part of our earnings as a one payment commission before getting our first payment. So everyone is happy, you learned to earn money on line accepting to pay a little quote compared to the earnings you’ll receive and the site developers receive a well deserved quote for their services. SO WHY ASKING FOR MONEY BEFORE YOU START WORKING? The only one reason to ask for payment BEFORE they tell you what you are going to do to earn money is plainly, that the page and the method they offer don’t work, and you will be scammed. The only one who earns is the site’s owner as soon as you pay the subscription, and you’ll never see any money. Just by learning this simple fact and applying it to any work-on-line offer you found, you will be pretty sure of not being scammed never more. The only thing you could lose is your time but not your money in case the proposed procedures or methods don’t work at all.

Beware of this: very much scamming site owners are paying to people to develop and publish web sites and blogs that claim their site works, and these places are full of fake testimonials, pics of checks showing nonexistent profits, etc. And they are using SEO (Search Engine Optimization) techniques to get Google and the other search engines show these pages at the first places to convince people that those pages work. So, don’t visit only the first search results, look for forums and read what real people say about the results of subscribing and working with those pages before making a decision.

Because of the realtranslatorjobs scam I googled how to report a scam that is advertised on Google. And came across this:
"So what you can do is stop using the ads as search results, and rather click on them for amusement. The editorial review of Google before ads can be placed can no longer be trusted. The days when one could trust the Google ads because of strict policies and quality reviews by Google are long gone.
Oh, and BTW, it won't help if you complain to Google that their Adwords became a playground for scammers."

Hi Iakovos.
Thanks for replying. I have no idea that the woman wasn't from Greece. It just shows how clever they are. I am so glad to hear I helped you from being duped as well. However, after I posted this message I looked up their web-site out of curiousity and they have changed the text. It now says it is free to join and you have to have at least 1 year of experience. I got so angry that I wrote them a mail to complain. First I didn't hear anything, but then I manage to find another mail-adr. from their new site. The mail I wrote was very formal stating what they did wrong and how they have tricked me. I also stated the fact that what they have done was against the law in my country, which it is, and I expected that they returned my money. Luckily I happen to know a bit about the laws in my country. Being an entrepreneur you kind of have to. I got my money back, but didn't hear I thing from them. Not a word.
I am not a translator by profession, but I think it just rotten to trick you who are and take your work seriously. Stay away from them. They are not serious and just after your money.

In my oppinion, a place which offers a list of translation agencies is not a bad idea, and it would work very well, as long as the places listed in it are working, on-line, and really hiring translators. The probem with this "Finding Translation works page" ("Real" translators jobs) is that their list are very out-of-date and they give them any updating, so you could send hundreds of posts to those lists without finding any working page. Any up-to-date, maintained list of really hiring companies should work fine.

Would you ever hire translators who do not have previous experience, who do not have to prove they are worth any small $$$$ for their job and who are told that most translators are not fluent in the language they are translating into ? If you say yes, you are not concerned with quality and may apply. If you say no, I cannot but agree with you and would not apply. It is just a shameless money catcher.

Hello... I have read all the replies to this post and I wanna say some things:

1)If you need your money refunded, please go to ClickBank and ask for it by following the procedure they demand, geez!.
2)They are allowed to advertise on the net, Google and YouTube, because none of the things they say or promise are fake.

"No experience to join" that is true, you don't actually need any experience to join, that doesn't mean you need no experience to get a job, we rush upon our thoughts before time, and we do not take the time to think clearly.

"Why do they ask for a fee if they're offering jobs?" Easy, everybody's gotta make a living, and they chose this way... if you look at it it's not that they're misleading the business or ripping ppl off, it's a normal kind of internet business, they give what they promise, just not the way we want it, it's us that become too naive and blind when offered a large amount of zeros.

"60 days money back guarantee" yes, that's true, they actually do give your money back, but they also know how to avoid dumb people from getting their refunds, so c'mon guys, if you're gonna "write simple emails" to REALTRANSLATORJOBS asking for money, c'mon... tell me, do you actually think they're gonna give it to you? NO! For a money back guarantee there must be a form to fill and if you don't find it in the RTJ website, then you should pay more attention to the emails you get and even more when you have paid money out! If you get an email confirmation from ClickBank, then please... just go to them, and fill the required form to get your money back, it's simple, but as I said, dumb people don't get it, that's how it works, brilliant, isn't it?.

I am right now unsubscribing for the realtranslators jobs newsletter of hell that is everyday filling my inbox with a bunch of crap sent by some bitch named Mellisa Hoover, how I hate you, Melissa!.

Oh and one more thing, many of ppl that replied to this post wouldn't be able to properly translate, at least to English. So why even bother?

I was looking for some freelance Spanish translation and came across all these negative posts.

On a positive note here is a free chapter to cut out recruiters and make you more employable, http://howdoigetajobuk.com/blog/. Think it's time to get a bricks and mortar job. :/

i think this is NOT A SCAM. coz i got a refund for the membership fee i paid. here's the link http://www.clickbank.com/viewTicket.htm?key=01.5B73127E6B4B0945369FF6EA8F8103E9849A1D30807A79341790806559AE8FE199652B86 i applied last april24,2012 and only today i called my credit card company to check if there is a reversal. and the agent confirmed that there is a credit from clickbank one day after i requested it. so the 60 DAY MONEY BACK GUARANTEE is REAL. =)

Hi everybody,
Thank you all for your enlightening posts!
Not that I was eager to join this RTJ "opportunity", but I must admit that it looked tempting at first sight. But, the two things that looked fishy to me were:
1) "No experience needed" (yeah, right...anyone can translate), and
2) The upfront payment you have to do to GET a JOB!!
This scheme I have seen in at least two other of these internet scams: one that offers you a lot of money for answering polls or surveys, and another one for referring companies or brands to your contacts. All scams!
Thanks again to all.

Hi i5me,
I couldn't say ALL on-line surveying jobs are scams, but in my opinion there are some hints that might shed some light. First and most important: being asked to pay them upfront! There was one that kept on popping up in various websites (Google, Cuevana, dictionaries, etc) that was very sticky: you had to close a number of windows before it would finally leave you in peace, It said that just for answering polls you could get an attractive income, Of courde, you had to PAY THEM FIRST. Hope this helps, and ALWAYS check forums like this one first.

Hi everyone. I think this is a big lie. Nobody have to pay for work to get money from it. I think if there are interested to find people they need, they will take their time to choose suitable candidates for the job, not everyone. Or when you get your first check for 100$ then to pay 50$ for the start (start price). They can't take money from you before they give you. That's it. Aren't you agree?

yes.. its a SCAM.. i paid to understand how works.. no problem for me.. After pay they sent, automatically, links to another site that control the payments. The company is http://www.clickbank.com/ After pay is completely confused. They redirect you to another page to buy more and more things... On the foot have link "no, thanks" to skip, but if you click there, you are redirected to another page offering more things to pay.. endless.. I was patient and found the place for set my profile.. The profile page is empty!! "This is a joke??" Only 2 fields to insert your full name and change your password.. So.. my question was, "WHERES THE JOBS ??" Finally, with many difficulties i found a link to watch the tutorials. I thought that was important videos, but its like "Rick'nRolled (Youtube videos scam)".. There are 3 or 4 videos with 15 or 20 minutes each one.. FULL OF NOTHING!!! I skipped all videos to go directly to the jobs list.. Its a ridiculous static list of many random links of companies of translation services. Many of links return 404 not found.. no integration with companies.. You must enter by your self on each company and try your lucky.. I don't know why USA justice permit this kind of service.. Its clearly a crime. I sent e-mail to clickbank.com about refunds. Their response was fast and very professional. I wait for 2 or 3 days and no answers about. Then i requested a refund using Paypal system. Immediately, the Clickbank gave me response that will refund me as soon as possible. After 10 hours i received all payment back, 100%..

If you have doubt about what i wrote or just curious to see, go ahead hahhahah..

Hi guys, sorry for jumping into this forum.

I was interested by reading this article on Cray News, dated on February 2, 2014 (http://craynews.com/earn-money-translating-documents-online-2/)

Thinking that I will earn some extra money, I just signed up. But they ask me to pay around USD34, WTF? Why should I pay to get paid? Then they offered me special price, USD24. But still I hesitated, so I searched and lucky me, I found this forum.

But I wonder, how about the articles on CN? Is it also scam? are they related with Real Translator Jobs? you know since it's not only 1 or 2 articles, I at least found out 5 articles related to Real Translators Jobs, all are written by David Tran, so any comments guys?

Hi

I realise my reply is a year after your post, but I had the same findings especially when a writer doesn't use names of the supposed people he spoke to for testimonies. So, I checked it out more...(because I too was interested in the prospect) turns out enough evidence is pointing towards it being a scam! Don't go near it! but what was curious is that I left a nice comment on the latest of David Tran (Cray News) article dated in March this year. My comment was rejected even though all I pretty much wrote is the name of the site that investigates scam operations. What's in it for David? haha- even more curious is that Cray News are allowing such editorial. Damn internet...cant trust anyone, anything!

They are scammers. They took my money and all I got from them was more so called special offers to purchase other stuff even claiming to create a free website for me but clearly they would charge me for the domain name. In other words scamming us to buy a domain name from them with the offer of creating a free website for us. When I signed they said it was a money back guarantee but I have written to them and there is no reply and I am waiting for my money. They did not give me any access to any translation jobs only asked me to purchase more stuff from them.

I joined the group last Oct 17, 2014, and paid the equivalent of $34 which was charged to my mastercard account. Up to now, I have not received any job for translation. This is contrary to what they had been saying in their ad that there are thousands of translation jobs waiting to be serviced. Moreover, I can't even login as a registered member of the group now. It seems that this group is just out to make easy money on us. I will therefore demand a money back as they have guaranteed this us. I would therefore caution others into joining and accepting this offer.

If you can't see the scam in this ad you deserve to be scammed. How can you be so naive?
Why would someone ask for a 18 year old "translator" who doesn't have to show any papers. You don't need to know the language well because they only want your money.
If it's too good to be true, then it is a scam.
You need to start being more sceptical when you're on the net!

What I don't understand is that Facebook lets them use their pages to advertise this shit. Also I wonder how the scammer has access to receive money using Visa or other similar ways...concidering all the complaints the credit companies must have received through the past two years.

I just saw the ad when noticed on another page. I have been looking for a simple home based work,and this kind of thing would sound perfect since I have always loved the idea of being a translator. Anyway I immediately thought this must be a scam since it sounds too easy to be true and how the web site was build. I have done another job where I saw a lot of scam pages and there are good signs for such.

Usually the page does not have much information about the company (narrow explanation about the job, maybe address and email address, but if you go to the address it does not look anything like an official office or business)and it looks a bit fake(to my eyes at least since I have seen so many of them that I can tell the difference quite easily, they never look professional website but more like a click-on ad).
When asked they do not provide much information about how the payment is done, what is the tax policy etc. Often there is negative experiences on internet about the company unless it has just started. So I would advice to examine all these " simple home work with a good payment" promises or some other "easy way" offers. Unfortunately most of them are scam sites. There are however some companies that do actually have a nice job that is home based and I was lucky enough to work for one (the job mentioned above with scam page checking etc)of those companies.

The problem was the tax policy is different in each country and that can cause problems, just like it did to me. I had to quit the job I really liked because the tax policy did not recognise the internet based half freelancer work. Good luck to everyone who wishes to get a job.

The General rule of thumb when it comes to online jobs like this is, when you have to pay before you can begin to "work" it's most likely to be a scam. No company legitimately offering a chance to work online will ever ask you for money before you can start. there will always be free sign up and registration, and you will get paid when you complete the work. a employee should NEVER PAY FOR WORK.. There are legitimate places online you can try.. but this is not the one, trust me. rather go for something like freelancer that has a name and reputation in the online business opportunities you can trust. there's no such thing as get rich quick on the internet by filling in a simple form.. if you want to earn money online, unfortunately you will have to work hard at it.

To all. I've done some background check on the legitimacy of this site/company.
FYI... My background is in criminal investigations.
This is technically not a scam. However their business practices fall in line with scammers..
Basically their business model is to monitor varies job board site. So in short, you are paying a fee for someone to look online for job opportunities.
Although legally speaking they are not doing anything illegal, they have absolutely no tangible records of jobs allocated, found, success rate ect.
This is always a red flag.
In short. Don't waste your time.

After working with her from time to time she decided to scam me for 60 euro. Corenlia Translation forgot to pay an RO-ENG translation invoice since June 2017 and as a bonus she is not responding to any of my emails.

So, please stay away from her.
