Question
About Google

Hey people, I need an opinion. You hear so much about working for Google, Is it legit? Is it complicated? I live in Youngstown, Ohio and there are no jobs here. I am looking into this Google thing, and I am not hearing anything negative about it. Can you really make money with Google? Is it worth the time to try??

I've been skeptical of this ever since seeing the first web ad for it, but that doesn't necessarily mean it's not legit. If you do go with something like this, I'd be sure to start at the google home page rather than clicking on and following a linked ad.

No, its a scam.
If you do a google search for what you are talking about, you'll find other sites where some say its good. But, then there are a lot of others that say its really bad and a scam. From what I have seen, they just send you a cd and tell you to sell things off websites like ebay.
I have a spam email I have setup and get links to those google junk. If you read the really fine print, you'll also find out that they'll make you a member of several other websites @ $49 for each site they enroll you on.
Plus if you click on their about and contact buttons, you'll also see they're out of Las Vegas. I have yet to see any good and legit website come from Las Vegas.

And he isn't talking about working for Google. There are links and spam out and about. The spam is just that, spam.

Well it really depends on what the heck the OP is talking about. Certainly you can work for Google, and yes they have legit jobs posted Jobs at Google. However if you are talking about the "Google work at home scam" or some of the various other scams then obviously those aren't legit!!
