Legal Question in Business Law in New York

As a rule of thumb, you should be wary of any company offering employment opportunities PROVIDED you pay some fee and/or membership for employment training. You should contact both your local, and the secretary of state's office (or website) where the company is located to ascertain whether the company is a legally registered entity in good standing. You should also contact the BBB to determine in there are any prior complaints or disputes filed against, or associated with the company.
