Use these tips to investigate opportunities:
1. Before investing in any opportunity, check for complaints filed against a company with the Better Business Bureau at http://www.bbb.org. This is a good first step to research the manner in which a company does business with its customers and clients.
2. You can browse for scam warnings and other information regarding specific opportunities and businesses at http://www.scambusters.org, http://www.ripoffreport.com, http://www.mlmwatchdog.com, and http://www.worldwidescam.com. Avoid wasting your time and money by doing this research right up front.
3. Work-at-home scams are often presented to appear as if you are being offered a job. People are more trusting of job offerings as opposed to opportunities. An opportunity is not the same thing as a job. Beware of those who intentioanally confuse the two.
4. You should be able to get complete disclosure about an opportunity before sending money. All your questions should be answered in full. Many scams are designed to persuade you to sign up immediately before the questions you should be asking are not apparent to you. Take your time.
5. Investigate the opportunity by talking to people who have experience working with the company. Find out if their experience is favorable. Be suspicious of any company that does not provide you with references or an open forum to interact with participants. Never take on faith any claims made by the company.
When you do find legitimate opportunities, pay attention to the income participants report. Many legitimate opportunities will not produce a living income for the average person. The real money goes to the company offering the opportunity and to a very few affiliates who recruit the participant members. Your research should uncover real-world income expectations.
6. Beware of those who promise lots of money and easy work. Money flows in a consistent manner to those who provide a valuable service or product. It takes work to establish the flow of money from a service or product. Easy money can come, but only after an investment of time and work.
7. Remember the old adage: If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
Hope this helps. Be cautious, be patient, and prosper!

You need to get your state's "Sales & Use Tax License" for collecting sales tax on products that you ship to California (the state where you are based). In order to get that, you'll probably need a federal EIN. That's a very simple process done through the IRS. Just search for EIN on irs.gov.
