60.  I was sucked once , be careful these days
I won't name the company because it is advertized on Nova M and others liberal radio .

The catch is the shipping . It was for a success kit for ebay , free CD except the shipping . By the time you enter all you info , name address and so on you are only allowed to pay the small shipping charge with a credit card - this is where you stop and forget it . I got the CD but then later I was charged $40 for a membership which was not an option I signed up for or agreed to , this would have been three $40 payments .

I called my bank and since I was a customer since 1981 they credited my account and charged back the rip off company .

This is the hidden catch in all of these adds , key words is you only pay the shipping , if they allowed you to pay by check or cash then you are ok but they don;t . It's a scam and there are millions out there .

I avoid all work at home online jobs because they are all scams and all just a way for them to generate funds .

Listen to all of these adds , they all say you only pay a small shipping cost , perhaps somewhere well hidden in the endless fine print there is the catch mentioned but i did not see it .
