PassPack Password Manager

June 30, 2008 By Paul (Founder, WorkAtHomeTruth) 2 Comments

Yesterday I signed up for the PassPack Password Manager service and I learned about a whole new level of data security.  But before I continue, if you’re going to sign up for PassPack here’s an important tip:

Sign up in a place where nobody else is around and keep a pad of paper handy! This is just to record your information initially. Maybe your memory is better than mine, but I forgot my "unpack" key soon after I first signed up for the PassPack password manager (it’s actually much more than just a password manager).

From their site:

"Passpack does not maintain a copy of your Packing Key and can not recover it, nor your Entries, if it is lost."

Also important is this notice from PassPack’s "Terms and Conditions" page:

"Furthermore it is forbidden to store critical data such as, but not limited to, financial data or access data to financial institutions, or any data which, if lost, stolen or destroyed, could result in personal or public catastrophe."

Click here to view PassPack’s full Terms and Conditions.

I’m planning to discuss some impressive data security measures HyperOffice has in place, including employee-based security measures (and the legal ramifications for HyperOffice employees if the don’t follow the measures which is actually the most important part of a policy like that) but for now I just want to discuss PassPack’s security algorithm which is based on the Advanced Encryption Standard which is an algorithm approved by the National Security Agency for protecting top secret information.

Right now you can store up to 100 passwords for free but as of 6/30/2008 you can upgrade for free and then the first paid upgrade will be at about $10.00 per year and will include some features that PassPack isn’t disclosing yet.

John Jacobs – Status – Not Recommended

June 29, 2008 By Paul (Founder, WorkAtHomeTruth) Leave a Comment

John Jacobs’ ProcessforPay system is on our "not recommended" list because the claim that he "(became) quite famous as a pioneer of rebate processing" seems incredibly bizarre given the history of rebate processing. For one thing people who do rebate processing jobs tend to be lower-skill workers who typically make right at or barely above minimum wage.

Also, in recent times many rebate processing jobs have been shipped overseas where workers are willing to work for $3.00 an hour or even much less.

Finally, for those seeking telecommuting work the ProcessForPay website fails to pass our Rules we’ve put up in order to assist you in evaluating home job websites and home job offers. Although we aren’t certain, what ProcessforPay probably teaches is affiliate marketing based on incentivized offers.

And yes, you can make money marketing products and offering rebates on them, but the rebate money comes from your own funds in this case and you have to pay strict attention to the rules the companies that allow incentivized offers put in place to make sure you don’t risk losing all of your commission money.

In fact the only type of "rebate processing" that would enable you to earn $225 per day would be affiliate marketing using incentivized offers.

If instead, you are trying to locate telework, you might want to visit our telecommuting jobs section. Or if you’re somebody who has considered trying to find data entry work you probably would want to review this list of real data entry work from home companies here. Although, be prepared for some shocking information that you might not know.

Cindy Dalton – Status – Not Recommended

June 29, 2008 By Paul (Founder, WorkAtHomeTruth) 7 Comments

We currently do not recommend Cindy Dalton’s offering at RebateProcessorJobs. Besides the suspect claim that you can earn $200 to $1000 per day processing rebates at home, if you are looking for a telecommuting position this site does not pass our Rules test we provide to help you evaluate work at home job sites and offers. Most likely what RebateProcessorJobs teaches is what’s known as "incentivized offers" which is based on the principle of providing cash or non-cash incentives to people in order to get them to try a product or service.

And while it’s a fact that large corporations at times do allow affiliates, affiliate networks, and affiliate companies to run cash-back or other types of incentivized offers. However, keep in mind that there are numerous aspects to running incentivized offers not to mention the fact that most individuals visiting Cindy Dalton’s RebateProcessorJobs site probably think they are mainly going to be doing rebate processing "jobs".

So theoretically, one could do quite well running incentivized offers. However, if you’re looking for a "rebate processing job" don’t expect to make $200 to $1000 per day as most rebate processing jobs are sent overseas or through third party rebate processing companies that work for much lower wages.

If  you are seeking telecommuting positions we suggest you review our telecommuting jobs section. And if you’re an indiviual who is thinking about doing work at home data entry, you may want to look at our list of real data entry work from home companies here. But, be prepared for the truth about data entry work from home.
