Can you make money with Google? Of course you can, and I don't mean for my title to be misleading. There are thousands of people who make a living online utilizing Google, including me. At the end of this article, you can learn how to make money legitimately too.
What I meant was you have to be careful and not be a fool that falls for the popular "make money with Google" scam that separates people from their money every day. There is a scam out there that promises to show you how to make a lot of money online, but unfortunately all you will do is lose money.

You may have seen the sites that have an offer like this: "Learn how to work for Google and make $300 a day in your spare time" or "Make money online with Google- $1000 a day with hardly any work!" All you have to do is sign up for a free kit from Google that will show you how to get started.

These offers sound enticing- after all, who wouldn't want to make hundreds of dollars each day in their spare time? The offer is appealing and people sign up for their free "make money with google kit" every day. But if it sounds too good to be true, then.... you know the rest of the saying.

You can't really expect to sign up for a free kit and learn to get rich overnight. I don't mean to be so blunt, but these scammers depend on people looking for a way to make quick money, and what better way to get their credit card info then giving out something for free and making them pay for shipping.

That is how the scam works- you sign up for the free kit, and all you have to do is pay $2 or so for shipping and handling. But after they have your credit card info, they will charge you a lot of money. People lose a lot of money this way, and it can be difficult getting things straightened out with your credit card company if you try to dispute it.

And here is the real kicker...this is technically not even considered a scam. They put their plan on their terms of service page, but it is hidden well and usually in tiny font so nobody will see it until it is too late. But since it is on their site, it is technically not a scam.

But they do it on purpose to rip people off, so I consider it a scam. Also, these sites are not related to Google either, and you will not actually "work for Google" like most of them say. And many of these types of sites were also fined by the FTC recently, so that is further proof that you should be wary of them.

So yes, you can make money online. But please do yourself a favor and research things before giving out your credit card info to these scammers. The make money with Google scam tricks people every day, but you don't have to be their next victim.

However, I don't want to scare you into thinking that it is impossible to make money online. The problem is that, again, these sites are not affiliate with Google and are just scams. But, it is possible to make money if you actually use Google's free services legitimately.
