]]> Comment on Virtually Use Your Skills To Start A Virtual Assistant Internet Business by canadian virtual assistant http://canadianvirtualassistant.wordpress.com/2008/07/09/virtually-use-your-skills-to-start-a-va-internet-business/#comment-18 canadian virtual assistant Fri, 11 Jul 2008 21:50:46 +0000 http://canadianvirtualassistant.wordpress.com/?p=20#comment-18 I would like to respond to the comment about security. Virtual Assistants work for themselves, so helping you succeed in your business - Is our business. We are not secretaries, we are business partners. Almost all of us have our clients and themselves sign a confidentiality agreement that will hold up in a court of law. Most VA's are certified and have standards and ethics that we strongly stand by. Certification is not easy. My certification took a year and a half to complete at Red Deer College. Red Deer College is a comprehensive community college that has been educating students since 1964. The guess work has been taken care of as far as standards. I have yet to meet a VA who wasn't passionate and committed to excellence! I would like to respond to the comment about security.

]]> Comment on Avoiding Virtual Assistant Scams by canadian virtual assistant http://canadianvirtualassistant.wordpress.com/2007/12/07/avoiding-virtual-assistant-scams/#comment-7 canadian virtual assistant Mon, 24 Mar 2008 23:40:18 +0000 http://canadianvirtualassistant.wordpress.com/2007/12/07/avoiding-virtual-assistant-scams/#comment-7 I have made the Scam more visible by highlighting it in RED. Never accept payments by processing through your own bank account and then sending the balance less ??% in this case 5%, because you do not know where this money originated from. It is a big scam. After keeping the 5% and processing your clients money ... your bank will find out (sometimes takes 30 days or more) that the (money order/cheque) is fraudulent and freeze your account until the bank has recouped the ORIGINAL amount of the draft or cheque. Usually in the thousands. In my case it was $7,000. By the time the bank lets you know it is not a valid cheque or money order you have already forwarded the balance of the sum and cannot get it back. The bank will not help you. I hope I have clarified this so anyone who reads this will not be scammed. I have made the Scam more visible by highlighting it in RED.

What is it that you have run into to know? I would like some more input so that I don't make the same mistake. Can I ask why this is a scam? What is it that you have run into to know?
