http://www.jumpupcareers.com has home based businesses advertised on sologig.com. I cannot find any information on this company, other than its domain registration on Network Associates, LLC is private.
This sounds like a new variation on an old scam.
Anyone know anything about this company?

They claim that their services are "free" to job seekers so it very well may be legit. Maybe someone will read this and has had some sort of experience with them and will let us know.

while jumpupcareers.com may be legit, I wonder about the home-based businesses advertied on it . . .

I am wondering about the home based business as well. There was some scam involving a couple of scum bags who would post similar ads, and you'd fill out their on-line application - and all they wanted was your demographic information and they'd build a list to sell to companies to solicit you for business. You'd never get a call back for any such job. This looked eerily similar.

I found the above in their TOS... after reading that I would be careful to believe some of the ads that may be posted there. Through experience I have found that most of the work at home ads are scams. I only know of one for sure that isn't and that's because I worked for them.... it's called liveops.com. But as of this time, that is the only work at home that I have found to be completely legitimate.

Unless you are a Tupperware sales person or Creative Memories rep . . . those kind of party plans usually fall under the "work at home" category also.

I agree with ximora . . . if they have that sort of disclaimer on thier site, they are covering themselves from the people who post scam jobs on there.
