Why You Should Avoid CAPTCHA-Entry-Jobs?

Working and landing on a job as a freelancer is always not easy for new service providers. That is why many new freelancers who are looking for online data-entry-jobs tend to fall into the trap of doing CAPTCHA-entry-jobs.

Here are 5 reasons why you should avoid doing CAPTCHA-entry-jobs:
1.         All CAPTCHA-entry-jobs involve spamming work and spamming is a crime and we should all condone to this act.
2.         Since CAPTCHA is an anti-spam device, if you carry out CAPTCHA-entry-jobs, you are indirectly abetting spammers. You probably might not even realize that you are helping in promoting scams and frauds.
3.         The remuneration for CAPTCHA-entry-jobs is way too low. You will only make a few cents for doing this kind of work for several hours. Most employers will only pay close to $1 for 1,000 entries. It’s almost like working for free.
4.         Since the buyers who posted the CAPTCHA-entry-projects are likely to be scammers, it is more likely that they may not even pay you for the data entry services you provide.
5.         Many service providers who have done CAPTCHA-entry-jobs have been cheated by the buyers. The buyers will just vanish after the spam work is complete and the service providers in the end get no money and no rating.

So, if you are a new service provider in any freelance sites looking for opportunities to work from home, I would suggest not to waste time and energy in doing such a low-pay and unethical work-at-home jobs like CAPTCHA-entry-jobs.
